Without a doubt - my favourite hotel is the Bahia Principe Costa Adeje in Tenerife.
Favourite places to holiday - Costa Del Sol, Algarve and Majorca.
(only like short haul flights) Just returned from the fabulous Falesia Hotel and soon returning to the Bahia Principe Costa Adeje. Not a bad life, eh? What about you?

Hi Suzie & Welcome to HT. Hope you enjoy your time on here. My favourite destination has to be the Greek Islands. No matter where I go I always end up back there - can't beat it - traditional tavernas, Greek music,wonderful people & delicious food - wish I was there now.

Welcome to HT. The worst thing about being a member, is getting addicted to the forums and specific threads, I have to a have a daily check!!! :)

Thank you all for making me feel so welcome! Always nice to have something in common with people and holidays are my favourite topic so plenty to talk about. We have only been to Greece a few times - a lot of our friends love it but I must admit, I do prefer Spain - mainly for the food.
My theory is, make the most of each time you are away, even if it is not perfect.
My Husband and I try to treat people how we would like to be treated and I must admit, we have made many friends that way. Give respect to get respect - that is our motto!!!!

Thanks for your warm wishes. I agree this site can be a bit addictive but it is a good and positive addition!!!
At least, it is not doing us any harm!
It would be nice to know where my new 'friends' like to holiday and what tips they have regarding using this site.

HI somersetsuzie,
Can I be the first to kick off -

My sister (Helen T)and I, along with our other halves normally holiday together. The Greek islands are our favourite place. We do a long haul thrown in every now and then.

I find the best way not to miss out on anything on this site is to navigate using the 'view new posts' link at the top right of the page. That way everything that's been posted since your last visit will be displayed. Also, if you fancy the sound of a resort or accomodation don't forget to look it up in the Resort or Hotel Review Section. There are also some lovely photos in the Gallery but unfortunately we haven't been able to upload any for a while.

Have fun! I'm sure we'll speak soon.

Hi Shirley and Helen. Thanks for the tips.
You must get on well to spend holidays together. Wish I had a sister!
Where is your next holiday?

Hi Suzie - We're off to the Midlands for a weekend at the end of the month, for our nephew's 18 th party. In August we're off to Dreams La Romana in the Dominican Republic for a fornight, and we've just booked a week in Agadir Morocco for next Easter. Shirley & I only live about 200 metres from each other, and we work together as well - so we're lucky we get on so well together - it wasn't always that way as children mind :D We're even more lucky that our hubbies really enjoy each other's company as well.

Hi Helen - It is always nice to have a holiday to look forward to isn't it?
We are going to Tenerife soon.
You are so lucky to get on that well with your family and I am sure you appreciate it.
The advice for me to look at 'new topic'' was not a very good one - I did it an hour ago and there were some queries about hotels that I knew about so I added my input - BUT...... I am supposed to be doing my housework!!!!!!
I must not get addicted to this Site. I must not get addicted to this Site. If I say it long enough, I might mean it!!!!!!!
When is your home town?
Of course, I realise that this can be read by anyone so should I remember not to get too 'personal'?
(I have never visited a chat site before)

:wave: That's the problem with this site Suzie - you only intend coming on for 5 mins, and you're still here an hour later :rofl I didn't bother to think of an username either cos I just popped on to see what people were talking about - and never popped off again :D If you look at the bottom of posts you will see a box saying "profile". If you click on this it will tell you something about the member, age what part of the country they live etc - of course you'll only find what the member is willing to tell people.
