Traf rang me and offered the option of a full immediate refund or could he find us something else. 4 hours later with absolutely no effort on my behalf and I'm going to Rhodes. He's fucking ace Traf You're very welcome, mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to hear a few reports when flights resume and go from there. That escalated quickly. Traf Tours booked, 1st August for 9 nights for me, 'er, and t'lad. 4 star for less than £1,700 AI. Can't whack it (hopefully). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stirling, Perth and Inverness for a bit busier but still stuff to explore. Portpatrick way off the usual places and it’s gorgeous. Lots to do and places to go in Scotland. Some really great places. spent many happy holiday as a teenager at crieff hydro, even now a few years later i still love visiting the place, its a fanstastic part of jockoland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobarp Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) Lad i know is in Tenerife. Arrived yesterday. Las Americas is a ghost town he’s saying. Most Bars shut most restaurants shut and nobody about. Hopefully it will pick up momentum but not sure these places will open up?

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted July 2, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 2, 2020 For any one going to Dumfries and Galloway; a coronavirus spike in the gretna and annan areas has resulted in some lock down restrictions not being lifted, so residents within certain postcodes can only travel 5 miles. Holiday makers can still go, but must adhere to the restrictions! Fucking joyous. Fortunately, I'm in a different postcode, but a bit close. I suggest folk check it out.

The story, for those not in the loop, was that I sorted Matt out with a deal that we both thought was decent, so Matt kindly recommended me to someone he knew. This person wanted a week's all inclusive, only flying on one certain date in August, for £3-400 including luggage & transfers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I was due to go to Dubai & Ras Al Khaimah on August 13th, but we've pulled the plug on it today and bumped it back 12 months. It's all paid for, so it's a "free" holiday next summer. Probably grab a cheeky week or two in the Canaries/Greece during the school hols instead.
