I'm off to Ayia Napa in july for 2 weeks on a lads holiday.

2 weeks of booze, beaches and birds! The only thing that could make it better is having my Polo with me!

Me thinks a trip down to Newquay for a long weekend is on the cards. A trip to the VW's second home cant be a bad thing.

Honeymoon for me this year and we're going to salou.

Its also going to be our first family holiday since my son was born.

I went snowboarding a few weeks back in mid-January so thats pretty much the major holiday spend for me. However, plans are afoot for some time down in Newquay camping, with the Polo for transport, natch

I'd like to head down for the Run to the Sun weekend if I can get the time off. Other than that, any other spare cash will go into the dub - tyres, tints, B&M and all that, you knows it

Well looks like you'll be in Wales for the rally anyway.....

Just trying to find out if there is any motorsport in Spain in May before I confirm the dates with the couple we are going with - be a result then

Ah, well I'm off snowboarding for the first time in March so wish me luck, any hints of tips would be greatly appreciated!

Then in May, a week in Germany, Austria, France and Holland, doing my grand tour of the EU! Stopping off ar Wolfsburg and Worthersee! Can't wait!

Then, because I have so much holidays left I may go back to Hong Kong for a couple of weeks in Autumn sometime...we shall see!

I'd not been 'boarding before, it was really really good!

I think the trick is not to worry about falling over, as you'll be doing that a bit to start with. Then go for the "no fear" approach

and learn to balance nicely and control the 'board... have you booked lessons? They're worthwhile, I booked before going out and paid Â£80 for lessons, lift pass and boot & 'board hire. Bargain

having a low budget holiday this year! should be a laugh though, few tinnies and baked beans every night courtesy of my mini gas stove

Argentina and Chile in July (perhaps I'll try some skiing as that's our winter).

I'm flying there though - gotta spend the credit card miles I get from spending all my money in car-related stuff!

I was in France skiing over xmas and near year and will probably go again in March. BTW, Chris, a kid of a family I was with broke BOTH of his wrists within the first 30mins on the 1st day of 'boarding - not trying to put u off or anything

Also got unlimited use of a Villa in St Tropez, South of France, so planning a few long weekends there during the summer, perhaps drive down a couple of times

Then I've got the ring trip to do!

And will probably end it all with a week in Portugal in Sept.
