Another one here going to the Yorkshire Dales (camping), but not until *after* bank holiday Monday when the crowds are gone (We're both off all week).  The place we go to is usually really quiet anyway.  We'll probably stop for ice cream in Pateley Bridge on the way there!

Eurovision with some friends. Other than that, just time for me and Mr MLG to do nothing. Bliss.

On Saturday we might go on a day trip somewhere.  Monday we have plans for a BBQ with friends.  Mostly we're relaxing.  We've had a pretty hectic few weeks.

We're going to Thailand! :D

WOW! I'm so excited for you! That would be amazing... *sigh* maybe one day we will get to go after all these immigration fees are finished!  :P

DH is working on Sunday morning, but I think on Saturday we may go to Berwick or Durham for the day to walk around and have a pub lunch, see where it goes from there. I'm looking forward to doing some driving.  :) We will probably just relax on Monday, and I imagine I will be doing some cleaning on Sunday while DH is at work. But I'm looking forward to an extra day off!  ;D

And I must, must, must complete my US taxes.  I won't have any other time to do them before they're due.  Talk about a last minute loser  :-\\\\

Yeah, we need to do that as well.  However it is looking like we will file an extension like we did last year. 
This weekend we are going to start thinning out our stuff and packing since we FINALLY exchanged contracts on our house today!!!  After 6 long years we are property owners again.

I am also going to the Yorkshire Dales and will be relaxing in some pubs ... or at least the one by our campsite.  ;D

Another one here going to the Yorkshire Dales (camping), but not until *after* bank holiday Monday when the crowds are gone...

Hooray for the Yorkshire Dales!  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

We'll be in a B&B (fortunately!) - hubby doesn't think English weather is suitable for camping, and that suits me.  We're going to be in the Wensleydale/Coverdale area.  :)

Dude, we so would not do camping.  DH would have a fit.  He's so weird.  We'll also be in the Dales... the Wensleydale/Coverdale area to be precise.   ;)

Hmmm...viewing this thread for some ideas as DH and DD both have all week off.  Don't think my big fat pregnant ars* will be doing too much walking but I'm sure we can come up with something to keep ourselves occupied.

I love camping, spent last summer taking young girls out into the wilderness. It was amazing :-)
