I cannot tell you how much the children and I need a holiday, we need some sun, sea and sangria desperately. Many moons ago we were good at booking last minute holidays, in some ways they are the best type as there are no expectations or endless shopping and panicking whether you have enough clothes etc as you literally have to pack and go! Lovely.

Anyway, we can but dream…and dreams do come true, sometimes. For now I will just pretend that I am lying on a sunbed with the sand between my toes, listening to the gentle lapping of the waves, the sun is beaming down on me and I have a cooling cocktail in my hands. Meanwhile the children are building sandcastles and giggling having lots of fun. Are you there with me? Yes, I thought you were. Anyway sorry to break that fantasy it’s a big jolt back to reality…Latedeals.co.uk have a competition at the moment with a prize of a £500 holiday voucher and whilst that wouldn’t get my family very far it would certainly help us on our way. It is a very easy entry, you literally have to watch the video above and answer the question here .
