16 days in total (3 Macedonia, 3 Munich, 3 Belgrade, 4 Madrid, 3 Lisbon).

Unlimited holidays but work expeptionally long hours as and when workload dictates including weekends.

Live with partner and 2 children, one of which i try to take as often as possible. I do however have a very understanding partner.

Approximately ?2800 spent over the 5 trips. The trip is the reason for going and the comradare of everyone being together. I wouldnt swap them for the world, i've had some great times.

Just the 6 this year, not a big impact on my 33 days for this year.

 

I reckon each trip costs about ?500.

1. Munich 3, Belgrade 1, Madrid 2, Lisbon 3 (Couldn't make Rabotnik)

2. None - But new Leave year 1st April :) its the first year I've never carried any days over to the next year.

3. Married (24 years), she knows how much this means to me, so understands why I do it. I never even asked about Lisbon, she correctly assumed I'd be going.

4. Not as much as you'd think. Against my better judgment I was persuaded to use Youth Hostels (I was wrong, they are excellent value for money - one in Madrid was superb) - Lisbon ?18 a night. Beer etc. I guess about ?200 a trip except for Belgrade which was tuppence hapenny.

 

Beer and Food you'd have to pay for this on an official trip, so with Lisbon to come I guess in total about ?300 more spent on beer and food so far, compared with if I'd done day trips. Considering Flights and digs for each trip has averaged out at ?150 it makes Belgrade (my only day trip) my most expensive.

weds - fri from luton!?

 

6.45 am flights, set off tomorrow midnight.

??? Squidgy ???

Widnes has no holidays left whatsoever and is therefore only going for 3 days

 

I'm told I'll have to make the time up so that's exactly what I'll do, make it up :D

Q1 and Q2: I'm self employed, therefore I have no holidays to start with. As long as I find some cover, all is well.

Q3. Married with children: the wife is very understanding: she realises we're all chasing the dream and that the next trip "will be the last, love!"

Q4. I reckon my total expenditure on attending every single Euro Away game (except Belgrade, where I did put my family first!) is less than ?500 in total max. Most trips are self-financing. My 3 day binge trips cost me less than an organised day trip would.

bit of a sweeping statement that ! so all single people are selfish fcuk's ?

Just a few questions like :pardon:

 

How many holidays have you spent on the campaign this season? Munich 4 days, Belgrade 2 days, Madrid 4 days, Lisbon 4 days.

How many holidays have you left? 27 days left this calendar year

How many of you are single and thus don't give a 'flyings f#' about others and think only of yourself? Missus has been on all the trips except Belgrade.

How much have you spent on beer, food and hotels while obtaining cheap flights covering 3-5 days? Dont even go there. About ?3k between us this year. Day trips for the both of us would have been ?2k+ though.

Self-financing?

I don't drink and I don't smoke, nor do I do drugs.

As for self-financing: I sell a bit of merchandise along the way.

I don't drink

I do tell lies, though.
