I'm very sorry to hear about your mother. If you are certain that you don't want to go you should give our holiday advisors a call on 0844 567 8844. They will be able to cancel the holiday for you.

If you are at all unsure, perhaps it would be better not to cancel and to have something to look forward to during this difficult time.

Kind regards

Olly, your editor

I do sympathies with you having lost my Mum two years in June....Only you will know the answer to should you go or stay.

What I would say is by then things for you should of settled down ie funeral and immediate sorting of STUFF out that has and needs to be done, so perhaps you could say what is there to stop you going it migh actually do you good in one way to have a break from the trauma and routine and step into a different world just for a couple of weeks. On that thought I would say go. ON the other hand if you are in a dark place and feel as if you need to be here for sorting things and to be with your family and just can't face new people etc which I also can understand then I would say stay here and re schedule for another date.

Darren it is very early day's so as the song say's one day at a time...there would be no harm in ringing the office and seeing when the next tour goes and if there is space as a back up.

I wish you well at this time, having walked this walk for nearly two years it is a very tough walk. I lost my Dad in 2006, he had been very ill so we were sort of waiting but my adored Mum went in the blink of an eye with no warning.

You take care

Cindy

Do you think your mother would want you to stay at home and be miserable ? I don't think so

My advice would be to go for it

Kind Regards
