Meeting people on holiday

[CFCnibs]

This is not about meeting the opposite sex and keeping in touch, thats fine. Im all for that.

However, if you holiday as a couple, and meet another couple on holiday, who you befriend and maybe have a couple of nights out whilst on holiday. Maybe a meal or two.

If you keep in contact despite living hundreds of miles apart, and even maybe once a year spend a weekend at their house and vice versa, this thread is for you.

I despise each and everyone of you.

Quality! Know exactly what you mean.

My In Laws have got "friends" and they met this way the sad bastards!. Now they travel a couple of times a year EVERY year to meet up and talk about that original holiday in Malta back in 1982 and have to remember birthdays, Christmas cards & anniversary cards etc, even though, deep down, they probably detest these people and other than the fact they once went to the same holiday destination, have fuck all in common!

Still, if it means because of these "friends" I get to spend less time with them, then I'm all for it.

I'm with the OP on this one. We always go away to places where the chances of finding 'brits abroad' are very slim.

IMO the worse thing imagineable would be a package holiday to some sunny european resort. I'd rather walk around Albert Sq for a fortnight with a nail in my shoe.

I met my best man on a holiday to Corfu back in 2000. It was really great, the girlfriends didn't really care for each other but we were like Gary and Tony all over again. I kept in touch with them ever since and we see each other semi regularly. We're going to be god parents to wait little sprog soon. And they were even from Scotland.

Same, i hate package holidays... Just sitting there in a large group of people all from similar destinations for two weeks singing kareoke songs whilst bladdered is my worst idea of an holiday.

We try to avoid "popular" hotspots for the council estate scum, nothing snobby, just if i want to see that i'd just not bother driving to Manny airport and head towards Wythenshawe, save a few quid aswell.
