Everyone deserves a holiday to get away from normal life. Us window cleaners defo needs a change from time to time

-
Every month, I work 2 weeks on/2 weeks off and would never change it
-
it looks like ill be having 15 straight days off as i have a short working week before i go to mexico,really looking forward to it....10 days on holiday and 5 days to get over the jetlag! ;D

personally id hate that....i like to keep a steady working schedule and work every week (working shorter days) rather than cramming lots of work into 2 weeks then 2 weeks off....
each to their own.... ;)
-
I had 11 days off last year, must have took me 2 months to get caught up.
Had a week off the other week and now a week behind.
great having the time off but not so great coming back to customers asking where you are

Paul has 'top trumps' me.
I have 2 weeks off in January and go to Thailand.
Just tell the custys in advance that their next clean will be later than usual.
They'll be fine, no problem.
Have a good one.

The last time was Nov/Dec 2015 for 18 days. Cruise to the Caribbean.
The time before that was August 2011. Family holiday to Corsica.
The time before that was June 2005. Family holiday to Bali.
Could do with another one fairly soon methinks.

Every year. Twice a year.

Do the council charge you rent if you take a holiday or do they move an asylum seeking family in until you get back? I've never rented, just wondering like.

Daz, room service is called room service because its there 24 hours. It’s there so they can flog your wallet when the restaurants and bars are closed. Its in all hotels, 1* or 9*, its nothing special.

24 room service is part of the all inclusive so no extra charges in our hotel.... 8)
That's the difference.....

Couldn’t pay me to go AI. Too chavvy. Much prefer wandering around finding nice places to eat/drink.
Not just stuck in the same place with a ridiculous bracelet just to order local beers etc.
Each to their own though.

the place were staying at is as far from chavvy as you could imagine mate,in places like this its not just local drinks that are included in the AI but all the international brands too....not that it bothers me as i dont drink but my missus does.... 8)

Sometimes, some people on here have got their heads that far up their own ass, I'm surprised they don't suffocate

But still stuck in the same boring restaurant every night with the same boring value for moneyers.
No thanks.

I can't abide hotel food. Take me out of the place and let me taste the locals grub. I go away to taste the place as well as soak up the sun.
Just as well sit under a sun-bed for two weeks if you're not going to absorb the culture.

gourmet all inclusive is different than the normal AI places.....its adults only so no kids which is great......the food will be outstanding.....the yanks holiday in mexico a lot and they dont put up with bad food/service like some british do.... ;)

ill go to a cenote and do some outdoor swimming one day and a trip to chichen itza,the rest will be chilling out round the pool,gym and getting my leg over....as well as eating fantastic food every day with no cooking or washing up required.. :D
-
Don't think I've been to a hotel since I was a kid.
We go abroad at least once a year but always go self catering.
Prefer my own space in a holiday home or villa
