I don't watch TV on holiday, I don't want to see any news, I don't buy newspapers. I leave all that happens in the news behind. Whatever happens in the UK I don't care about. I'm on holiday.

I have my phone with me in case of emergencies, but I will not be on social media. All these people tapping away on their phones as they sit around the pool, I find that a shame. They might as well be at home.

Do others feel the same?
YES YES YES!!!!!

Enjoy

Re: No news on holiday

Thanks again all, I'll be signing off from the forum straight after after work in the morning. Too much to do Thursday with packing, last minute shopping, visit to the doc's and sorting out my MP3 player.
Got to get to work on my white bits starting Friday!

Exactly the same!

I don't do social media anyway.

I don't like false news and that's all it is.

I do this forum on my lap top at home first thing a.m. whilst having a cuppa before work and on an evening if there's nothing on tv

On holiday.....no tv, no phone or computer....but I do like the opportunity to read a day old newspaper properly!

I'm going to Kos ( again!!) end of June......counting down the days!

I would definitely need the internet stuck in hospital.
Food poisoning is awful, especially on holiday as I had it once in Turkey. Hope you got over it quickly, SP.


Same here, Gumbud. I'd leave it in the hotel room safe, but what if someone called in an emergency...maybe my wife will take hers instead?

One thing I definitely will do is cancel all my subscriptions on here for my duration. I don't want those bloody bleeps going off every bloody five seconds!
you've lost me there Floydy - I don't any bleeps goin off??
