Pollution and Holidays
When it comes to monitoring beaches for pollution, some countries are better
than others.
Shark tales make bigger headlines, but water pollution is far more common—and
a greater threat to humans than the creature depicted in Jaws ever was. In the
United States, fouled swimming water is responsible for tens of thousands of
beach closings and health advisories every year. Although there is still no
uniform federal protocol for testing water quality at beaches, information on
water cleanliness at most of the nation's public swimming beaches can be found
on the Environmental Protection Agency's site. Outside the United States,
however, travellers are largely left to fend for themselves.
Most pollution at swimming beaches is caused by bacteria associated with
fecal contamination. Some of these bacteria are harmless, but they are often
accompanied by more pernicious pathogens, including E. coli, salmonella,
giardia, and enteroviruses that cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and other
extremely unpleasant symptoms for the millions of swimmers who are exposed to
them every year. Though rare, cholera, hepatitis, and typhoid fever are among
the more serious water-borne maladies found at beaches around the world.

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.

7. House swap
You may think you live in a horrid, torrid suburban time warp - but to an
American visitor your home could well the quaint historic corner of Britain that
they've been yearning for. Likewise, their 'small' tumble-down hovel will
probably feel like a mansion. Give it at try.
8. Check out the special 'anti-truancy' deals
As part of the Government's Every Lesson Counts campaign to cut down on truancy,
major holiday companies have developed special deals such as free child places
and money off for adults. Ask your school for details or contact the travel
firms - but bear in mind that many of these offers may still be cheaper
elsewhere.
9. Surf for a deal
It's one of the things the internet does best. Compare flights, create your own
holidays and book online - or use it for research then phone around the High
Street chains and haggle.

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.

43. Don't let Disney take the Mickey
The mousesavers website maybe for American people but it is definitely worth a
read if you want to do Disney for less.
44. Track down local restuarants
In Venice, in general, the closer a restaurant is to St Mark's Square the more
touristy and expensive it is. Remember, wherever you go local people eat out
too. Avoid the tourist traps and you'll be better fed and richer.
45. Check in to the library
For free guide books pop in to your local library. You can ask for an extended
borrowing period if you are worried about not getting the books back on time, or
renew them online.
