UK holidays: Should I stay... or should I go? • Home I am a recent convert to breaks in Britain. In the spring, we recently experienced glorious sunshine across the watermeadows, with yellow irises catching our attention as we past by on our bikes. We even had a picnic, with freshly backed bread and local Dorset blue vinney cheese, while our puppy, Daisy, entertained us by running amongst the foliage after a buzzing bee. That afternoon it seemed like nothing could possible go wrong, with Britain offering such a detailed and memorable experience; why would we ever want to go abroad to Spain, Italy, or Greece when we have everything to fulfil our earthly pleasures right on our doorstep? There are many advantages to having time away within our own borders. Why would anyone want to get up at 2am, in a panic, for a flight to Gatwick airport, then be told your flight is delayed when you arrive there. Not to mention the added inconvenience of you happening to lose your bag somewhere during the mad rush when you do eventually get on the plane. We would we want that when we had a beautifully thatched cottage in Winfrith Newburgh, Dorset. We had the choice of eating in or out: a barbeque in the garden, or an evening out at the pub. Yes, I know you can do these abroad, but why travel so far when everything is within a respectable distance from our own home? The Lake District, the New Forest, the bleak beauty of the West Highland Way or the chocolate-box prettiness of the Cotswolds are just some of the reasons why we should associate holidays with the wonders of our own country to the next generation. I want my children to explore and push the boundaries and make secret discoveries away from the gaze of authority. • Away On the contrary, people love the freedom that travelling abroad brings. Let’s face it, this country is overcrowded, and full of stressed out workaholics; what better way to leave them behind than exploring the extravagant wildlife and warm sunshine in Africa? No doubt the Caribbean, or to the South of France, or Italy, or the Seychelles will take your fancy too. No one likes the British weather either: its grey skies and lashing rain (of the summer!) doesn’t really sound too appealing. On my trip to Africa I got to experience the delights of nature. I saw a leopard kill and half-eat a large male impala, and we arrived as she was dragging the 60- to 70-pound carcass across some open veld towards a marula tree, which she would use as an elevated pantry. It was fascinating to watch her haul the dead weight 10 yards and then rest, panting, before dragging it again. Finally she reached the base of the marula tree and looked up, dare I say plaintively, at the 30-foot vertical climb before the branches that would support her kill. I will remember the experience for the rest of my life. While I love this country, I will even put up with the all the queues at our awful airports and the discomfort of jet lag. The unpleasant climatic conditions make me think I should be allowed the reward of an annual long-haul holiday to the sun without anything will stopping me
