I am absolutely sure she cannot go away with her friends.

I live 100 miles from my mother so it's not possible to pop out for a salsa class with her!

Anyway, I had a kind of conversation with her about it. I didn't say I didn't want her to come away but rather that next year we are only planning to go away once and it will probably be to Thailand for 10 days and then asked what she planned to do for holidays in 2012.

It turns out she has already been thinking about it and has decided that because she has a lot of holiday days to use up before April she is going to go away on a Just You (singles) holiday to Spain in March for a week to see if she likes it, and if she does she may do a longer holiday with them in 2012.

She is still coming with us to Turkey in May for two weeks this year but I am hopeful that this may be the last time for a while.

That's good news, I'm sure she'll love it. I go on singles holidays all the time but have now branched out to using Explore as the people who go on their holidays seem a little more independent than some I have met with the more traditional solo firms. However, I have used Friendship Travel, Solos and Travelone and would recommend them all - I am now 40 but have been using them on and off for the last 7 years. The average age is more towards the 50s - there are a lot of people who are approaching retirement or already retired, might be single for whatever reason and children all grown up etc. who have the disposable cash and time to get out there and see things and meet people.
