I love booking all your trips, but some, I get especially excited about!
VIRGIN VOYAGES – IRRESISTIBLE MED (with Rome)
Just booked a family of 3 on the gorgeous Scarlet Lady sailing from Barcelona this Sept.

Gorgeous ship, fantastic dining options, brilliant music & such an awesome vibe on board.
Plus, you get your own hammock on the balcony (sea terrace) cabins!
I know they’re going to have a fantastic time. This is one of the ones where I wish you (they) could smuggle me in their suitcase!

WORKING MUMS
This was my day, yesterday; juggling childcare & several holiday enquiries. One, a last minute escape to Turkey, so I was keen to get it done.
I did take my son out for an hour to walk for a milkshake & look for ladybirds in Happy Valley but otherwise, I was at my computer all day.
Then, in the 30mins I took to do bath & bed, my clients called to book & I missed the call.
They booked online. I lost the business.
Don’t know where I’m going with this really but just giving you an insight into my world.
I’m trying to grow a business & I’m also trying to grow a beautiful, happy young man.
Next week, we’re on holiday so that will be lots of quality family time. Hopefully my ‘mum guilt’ will lift…
That’s one of many reasons to book a holiday, I guess; step away from the computer & play with your gorgeous children, in the sunshine! ☀️💕
I still want the bookings though... What do you do?
Fly off to Ibiza and worry about it another day.

The joy of cruising

On rainy days like this my mind always drifts to holidays gone by or holidays I'm yet to take! Whilst on my amazing Virgin Voyages cruise last year, I took some time to speak to Duncan, from our cruise team about all the reasons to try cruise. It's an amazing way to see the World! The Med, the Caribbean, Alaska, the Fjords and also, river cruise... There are still a few cabins available and great offers for this summer, so if you've never tried cruise or a keen to experience a different ship, give me a call. Let's sail away to the sun!
