Holidays in the UK/ Learn to Swim on Holiday
How do you feel
about using holiday time to learn to swim with a UK
holiday learning to swim. We can
accommodate you at the pool or arrange accommodation in local B&B / guest
house or in a hotel (with bed and breakfast). If we know how far you need to
travel we can make suggestions for flights or train services for those that
prefer not to drive. Car rental can also be arranged.

Swimmers and Travellers Tips
- Leave plenty of time to get to the airport / port by the stated check-in
time. Please check your vehicle, traffic conditions and / or the running of
public transport before you leave.
- Make sure that you take all necessary documents with you and ensure that
your passport, visas, vaccinations and health requirements are up to date and
conform to local regulations.
- If you need to take regular medication, make sure you have enough with you
to last your holiday and any delays that may occur. You should also take a
spare supply packed separately from your main supply in case you lose your
first supply.
- If you are taking valuable belongings on holiday such as jewellery or a
camera you should consider covering them under your household contents
insurance. Many insurance companies agree to extend the cover to include
valuables whilst on holiday.
- Do not pack valuables, money, electrical equipment or fragile items into
check-in baggage. Keep these items with you at all times.
- Never leave your belongings unattended or with strangers, especially on
beaches or at airports, nor in vehicles.
- Carry cash only for immediate requirements and use travellers cheques or
credit cards wherever possible. Also, use safety deposit boxes if there are
available.
- Check your baggage for damage each time you reclaim it.
- We recommend that you drink bottled water whilst abroad. Even in
relatively safe places your body will not be used to the local tap water.
- Make sure you avoid ice in your drinks.
- The sun abroad can be much more powerful than you are used to at home,
particularly if you are on the water. To prevent sunburn and sunstroke, stay
out of strong sunlight and drink plenty of (bottled) water.
- Think before you dive into swimming pools and the sea. Check the depth and
for dangerous objects in the water. Do not drink alcohol and swim.

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.
Visit
"Holiday Money" to read the holiday article in full.
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.

27. Find a low-cost insurance policy online
Your travel agent - online or High Street - will try to flog you insurance. Just
say no. Go online or talk to a broker and you'll find single-trip European
policies for less than £10 per person. If you're going away more than once in
the year, consider an annual policy. Just make sure you understand what you need
and read the small print. Tip: single-trip policies cover you for cancellation
as soon as you take out the policy even if your travel dates are months ahead.
This is not the case for annual policies, which start from the day you take out
the policy, not the date of your first trip.
28. Shop around for your European breakdown cover
We've all heard of the AA and RAC but it's only insurance and any number of
companies offer the same type of policies for significantly less money.
29. The packed lunch trick
If you're flying no-frills, you can pay several pounds for an in-flight sandwich
and drink or you can take your own. With some of these low-cost deals, the cost
of your food can be more expensive than the cost of your flights. There's a
principle at stake here more than just a free lunch.
30. Take the coach
According to a This is Money survey, petrol will have to reach £10 a litre
before we start leaving our cars at home in any great numbers. Until then public
transport is always going to find it hard to compete. But coaches are pretty
luxurious these days and at the time of writing, megabus.com is offering
intercity fares throughout the UK from 50p, with £1 fares available during the
Christmas holidays.
