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.

24. Book your cab in advance
Getting to and from the airport can end up being a significant additional
expenditure. In the UK minicabs are a sensible option but you must book in
advance. If you don't, and you want a taxi, the only option are the official
on-site ranks, which can cost a fortune.
25. Book your airport parking in advance
Turn up on the day and you'll very likely feel sick at the price you'll have to
pay just to park your car for a week or two. So do your research, check your
insurance or AA membership for special tie-in offers, check hotels that offer
one-night, pre-flight stays that include long-term parking, look for off-site
parking offers, or, best of all, get someone to run you there and back.
26. Cut your speed on motorways
According to the AA, driving at 80mph on the motorways instead of 70mph costs an
extra 4p a mile - or an extra litre of petrol every 20 miles. This may not sound
much but it will add an extra £80 to a 2,000-mile tour of Europe. For
lawbreakers driving at 90 or 100mph the costs are significantly higher – and you
run the risk of heavy fines.

37. Two for one London
If you are travelling to London and the South East by train there are some
genuine offers for reduced entry to attractions such as Madame Tussauds and the
aquarium on the 2for1 website.
38. Do you really need a hire car?
British public transport maybe unreliable, dirty, out-dated and expensive but
it's not the case everywhere. In Tenerife, the buses are cheap, punctual,
air-conditioned and clean - there's no need to hire a car or queue for a taxi.
39. Check your passport at least a month before you go
If you leave this to the last minute and you have lost your passport, you won't
be going away at all. If it has expired you will need to pay way over the odds
for a rush application. Don't get caught out.
