hi all.
My name is Lucy. I live in a small village in Northamptonshire which is in the east midlands of England. My other half (oh) is called Rob. he doesn't love Disney. We have two children, Amelia who is 11 going on 15, and Zach who is 9.
we all visited in may 16 a 10 day trip staying at AKL . it was a totally amazing. trip report here. https://www.disboards.com/threads/boys-can-go-to-space-too-a-may-june-2016-trip-report.3530416/
So oh said something on the lines of ' which bit of once in a lifetime holiday dont you understand?' and z ( Who is too clever for our good) replied 'the once bit'.
So the two of us nagged and cojoled and kept going on about it. i suggested that he would not have to come too. i can manage 2 kids in disney on my own. and he said, with witness, ok book it then. so i did.
there was a UK deal on to book for 2018 with free dining. as work was always busy in may and the summer is just too darn hot i went for the october half term plus a bit. 10 days at the beach club for 3. £150 deposit paid. the rest not due till august 18.
not sure oh that happy about it.
So that was a couple of months ago. i started reading the dis boards again and getting excited about a holiday well over a year away.
then last month i lost my job, which was quite careless of me. so no extra money to spend on a very expensive holiday. very sad me.
then I got a letter from a saving policy that is there to pay a bit of the mortgage off. i thought it would cover the minimum but it might be better than expected. I'm not sure I believe the amount but it pays out in June so we will know then. if the amount is big enough we might just make it. even if im not working...
So in hope rather than expectation the planning is back on.
