I don't have children but I need 5 days in the month of July for a friends wedding and a festival that I had already bought the ticket for... then in September I am doing a Trek up Kilimanjaro for charity and it's 2 weeks. I understand your point about it being busy and expensive in the summer, but why should I sacrifice one of the things I am doing in the summer months (september isn't even summer and the kids are back at school) just because someone somewhere has decided to put a limit on the holiday allowed? I didnt take ANY holiday in the summer last year, I started in May and the first days off I booked were in October so why should I miss out on my events when I worked hard for EJ all of last summer!!
