    Default Holiday Selfishness

    Every year for the past 5 or 6 years, I've given in to family pressure and agreed that we'd holiday at the coast. I HATE the coast. I love the bush, especially the Kruger National Park. I love the solitude, the animals, the night sky full of stars and I am longing to be there.

    I reckon it's my turn to enjoy my holiday. What say you lot?

    Sounds good to me. Go for it!

    Do you need company?

    Bring the missus along book and pay for your accomodation and I'll be your tour guide. No charge. Bring your swimsuits.

    Has your family ever been there? Take them one year if they haven't. They might like it.

    Or maybe spend some random weekend there with the family and see what they think.

    Yes, we've been there before on holiday, but oldest says it's boring. It might be wise to invite his best friend along again.
