Depends as always on the hunger for it - we always have a moment of ‘do people really want it this year?’ when we open the booking (which usually disappears in a few minutes) - but if we ever do find out that we’ve provided enough to calm the storm, we probably would take a breather…
I’m posting this in here, counting to ten, rolling my eyes at two grumpy children refusing to go to sleep, and then heading off to post the link to this thread on Facebook as well (I always think active forum users deserve a decent head start).
And with just a couple of places left, it’s been a little bit less frantic than on previous years, but we have a fascinating new collection of people - so far only one previous northern bootcamper, which is going to be a really interesting change of gear.
@novem - I think it hasn’t, quite, yet - but don’t worry, we’ll hold the place as successfully booked, and we can sort out the payment next week…
Yes! I just had to put larger child to bed, who had been watching the process with great interest! They are both quite chuffed at the idea actually and are looking forward to me coming home a perfect Welsh speaker! The youngest will be 7 by April, so I think they will be OK. This will be my first Great Escape for 10 years!! Can’t wait!
Oh, this actually works in other people’s houses, does it?!..
I’m still jumping on and off the sofa for upstairs/downstairs counselling, bribery, diplomacy coupled with the occasional mute, menacing glare.
It’s an honour and privilege to be a First Great Escape moment. When we get our First Great Escape, it is probably not going to be a language course (unless I can find one that does wine tasting at the same time, so I haven’t entirely given up hope)…
