Swimming Pools and Beaches
- Never leave children unsupervised.
- Never go swimming alone.
- Do not swim for 1 hour after a meal. Amongst other things do remember to
familiarise yourself with and check the following: Depth markings in the
swimming pool in relation to height of yourself and children and also for
jumping and diving.
- Read any notices relating to the swimming pool and surrounding area and
never swim when the pool is closed.
- Always check that there is water in the pool and take care when walking
(never run) round the edge as it may be slippery. Tides and currents. Non
swimming areas. Depth of water. Submerged objects

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.

"Holiday Money" to read the holiday article in full.
13. Save up for the holiday you really want
You don't have to slum it. If you plan ahead and save your money like people did
in the 'olden' days, you can have the holiday you want, where you want and when
you want - even in the school holidays.
14. Take your bike
If you can't travel in the small hours, taking your family by car to the
Continent in the summer can cost a small fortune. So long as you tell the ferry
company in advance, most will allow you to take your bikes for free. This is
especially viable if you're visiting Holland or the Belgian coast, which are
famously rather flat.
15. Go youth hostelling
Did you know that in spite of the name, youth hostels are not the preserve of
the young - and many have family rooms?
Visit Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, and all of the other Walt Disney characters at World Disney World in Florida
-
don't book a hotel room, rent a luxury villa within minutes of the theme parks. Florida villas
for rent near Walt Disney World with private swimming pool.

19. Haggle for your hotel by email
One tip we like is to find accommodation recommended in guide books and on the
travel websites - then email them directly to check for availability. Wait a few
weeks and check again. If it's still available you're in a strong position to
haggle for a deal. Email is particularly useful for people who hate haggling
face to face or by phone.
20. Collect newspaper tokens
Many newspapers have a travel club or offer travel discounts that involve
collecting tokens. Some of them offer a fantastic opportunity to save money on
your holiday. Others don't, so always read the small print.
21. Check the latest exchange rates
Fluctuations in the value of the pound can mean the difference between being
able to afford a holiday in the US and not. At current rates, America is around
20% cheaper than a couple of years ago. Also, think about visiting countries
with currencies aligned to the dollar such as those in Latin America and the
Caribbean.

40. Beware the passport photo 'scam'
The rules on passport photos are now so strict that if you use a photo booth it
may take three or four attempts, around £14, before you get two pictures that
obey all the rules on size, reflection, smile and head size. So forget the
booths and go to a photographer who specialises in passport photos. You can
refuse to pay if the pictures are no good.
41. The foreign school holiday trick
When travelling abroad, check out the timings of the school holidays in the
country you are visiting. In France, the school summer holidays end before they
do in the UK. If you can wait a few weeks longer than normal before going away
you will find that rates in holiday accommodation drop dramatically since you
are no longer in their peak period. You will need to book direct with the French
operator and make sure you have the school uniform laid out ready for school the
morning after you return.
42. Beat the fly-drive system
When taking a fly-drive holiday in Florida many of the package deals include a
'compact' car. When collecting your car from the hire desk the staff may try to
convince you to pay for an upgrade using techniques such as explaining how
uncomfortable a family of five will be in a compact car, which is a little
bigger than a Ford Escort. However, you may find you get the upgrade without
parting with any money. Americans tend not to hire compacts so the hire
companies don't have many in stock. Reject any requests for additional costs,
take the keys and go to the car lot, where hopefully you will find a much larger
car, which hasn't cost you a cent more.
