Having had four weeks in Turkey earlier in the year, and having worked hard over the summer - working hard as only retired people can do - we decided to book a week in St Ives in September. So I spent 4 hours today trying to sort it out. When I finally found a a nice pub to stay B&B, at a reasonable price, I contacted it only to be told the price was not per room but per person, so it was twice as much as I thought.
2 hours later I fixed a holiday in a hotel in a village in Rhodes at £100 more than the Cornish holiday including the flight.
