2025 travel plans

[Scr77]

Accommodation locked in for Hoi An. Mid-Dec to mid-Jan.

$2.5k for a three bed private home with a pool. Halfway between the beach and the Old Town.

MrsGM booked and paid for it the other day, but didn't tell me until yesterday.

I haven't even applied for leave yet, so cross your fingers that works out.

Pick your battles. A divorce will cost more than finding a new job!

We could never divorce. It'd mean parenting alone too much. Neither of us wants that burden.

… otherwise it will end up in the travel mistakes thread!

I'll chime in here: Ireland / Scotland / England for 2 months August/Sep this year.
I'm hunting down my ancestors.
During lockdown I started doing my Ancestry and found out my very early ppl were poor Irish tenent farmers. But also Scottish mob were Lairds in the Highlands and owned a couple of castles!! My English mob were mostly from East Sussex - they were involved in the 1066 William the Conqueror battle at Hastings. It appears this lot were Nobles and owned castles and manors all over the county. Somehow between 1066 and the 1800s, these nobles lost all their money and possesions and found themselves on free passage to Australia as labourers to help build a new colony.
Might see if I can make claim on some nice Manors whilst there!! haha.
