Swimming Safety tips
Whether at home or abroad, follow these basic tips for keeping safe:
- Never swim alone or under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and never
dive head-first into an unfamiliar body of water.
- Check local information for details of tides, currents and pollution.
- Bilharzia, a parasitic infection of the bowel or bladder, may be
contracted by contact with infested fresh water in the tropics.
- In certain areas, fatal primary amoebic meningoencephalitis has occurred
following swimming in warm dirty water.
- Salt water is generally safer than fresh water for swimming in developing
countries. However, only pools that contain properly chlorinated water can be
considered safe from infectious diseases.
- When swimming in the sea, check out the possible existence of jellyfish,
sea urchins, coral, sea snakes, sharks and venomous fish. Human sewage and
animal faeces make some beaches no-go areas for swimming or even wading.

50 ways to save on your holidays
Richard Browning
SCHOOLS are clamping down on parents who take
their children on holiday during term time. At best, to get permission for even
one extra day off at either end of a holiday requires a degree of form filling
and letter writing that wouldn't be out of place in a Soviet police station.
Even then, the final decision rests on the whim of the chairman of governors.
While the difference a day makes to a child's education is unquantifiable, it
can add thousands of pounds to the price of a family holiday. But with this
option of saving money virtually outlawed, how do you stick within the rules
without breaking the bank?
Here are some examples from the article on how to save money on your holiday.

1. Book early
It may seem obvious but the holiday industry is like any other business affected
by the basic economics of supply and demand. The best time to book, according to
travel agent Trailfinders, is 11 months before you're due to travel. The flights
have just been released and there's plenty of cheaper seats available.
2. Book late
The rules of supply and demand also apply in last few days before the departure
date. If there are unsold seats and hotel rooms, you can bag a bargain with a
few clicks of the mouse, or a phone call or two.
3. Buy a package
The internet has been a godsend for people who wish to bypass the travel agent
and arrange their own trips. But here's a little-known tip: if you are booking a
flight and a car, or flight and accommodation, by packaging the two deals
together, an agent can often offer a much better deal than if you were to book
separately, even online. Call it creative accounting if you will, but it can
save hundreds of pounds on a long-haul trip.

16. Interail
Again, not just for gap-year students. There are many European and
country-specific rail schemes to enjoy. If you're really savvy you can travel on
the overnight trains with your own cabin to avoid booking a hotel.
17. Think about cheap hotel chains
In Britain, there's Travelodge and Holiday Inn Express among others. In France
there are tons of them dotted all over the country with rooms for three people
from less than £20 a night. They're close enough to all the major tourist areas
to make it a real viable option for the cost-conscious francophile.
18. Do your own research online
You don't have to pay a fortune or spend years trawling the globe for the hidden
gems. Just log on one or more of the travel websites and read the views of
previous guests. Remember: cheap doesn't have to mean nasty.

34. Control your holiday spending without doing a thing
Did you know that most credit card providers charge up to 2.75% commission every
time you use the card abroad? A similar sting applies if you use your
debit card abroad. One exception is Nationwide, which charges no such
commission.
35 Email us your tips
There are hundreds more tips for families to cut the cost of their holidays.
Send us yours and, if they're appropriate we'll add them to the list. There's a
prize for the best one.
35. Beware the mobile phone sting
Do you know how much it will cost you to make and receive mobile phone calls
abroad? Check your contract - at up to £1.49 a minute you may want to leave the
phone at home.
36. Don't use the Heathrow Express
The return rail fare for a family of five from London Paddington to Heathrow
airport is more than £130. Using the Underground and the little-known One Day
Family Travel card will set you back around £20.
