spring? more like summer!!

If like me you've spent the past few days out in the park, white skin bared to the public, you'll also be feeling like summer has hit. Summer and a good dose of UV Rays. Ouch!!

I apologise to those people who i may have blinded with my super pale skin, and have promised my sniggering colleagues that I will

a) use sunscreen

b) not bare SO much in public

c) not use a piece of turf as an excuse for a 'mobile park' and sunbathe a little further away from the office next time

d) not distribute any more images of animals sunbathing (okay, after this cat picture)

One bank holiday down, 3 more to go!

Bristol was wonderful. Friendly people, an awesome hotel - the City Inn was beautiful and perfect for my stay.

Next up - May bank holiday!

I've been checking out the bargain bank holiday breaks here... It's now whether I go for the seaside - I've been thinking about Bournemouth - you can stay at the 3 star Britannia Bournemouth for £45pppn.

Or I might head up north to Chester - beautiful city, great restaurants, and I love the Chester Zoo!!

There's a lush looking 4 star called the Crabwall Manor - a bit of a splurge after my last holiday but for this gorgeous hotel it's just £60pppn. They have a swimming pool, spa and gorgeous restaurant.

Decisions, decisions!

Right, off to find a shady patch of grass to relax in (fully clothed, no fear).

£300 giveaway!

I'm all set and packed for my trip to Bristol - hoping the weather will improve a little - although I am quite pleased with my choice of hotel with the CD and DVD player in each room! I may be staying in the hotel a bit more than expected! Am sure I shall brave the West Country weather and head out for a walk and a look at the suspension bridge.

I was also hoping to hop in a hot air balloon to get an incredible view of Bristol - fingers crossed the sun comes out for that! If not, the fact I have given up chocolate for 40 days means that I will be quite content as long as I have my easter eggs with me.

There is also a bit of news from my employers at HotelConnect - rumour had it that they were giving away £300 EVERY WEEK for 3 weeks. And sure enough, the rumour turned out to be true although I couldn't quite believe it myself. Check it out here..... www.hotelconnect.co.uk. All you need to do is make a booking to be entered - and you could get £300 cash! 2 weeks left to go..... seems like a good idea to me. Perhaps for the next bank holiday I shall be going somewhere a little further afield than Bristol....

HAPPY EASTER everyone!
