My family fits into the bracket of holidaying 1-2 times a year, but we usually go for a minimum of 3 weeks and spend £5-£12,000. I don't think we're poor at all.
The parking costs, well that's just Northern Irish stinginess.
Poor as in unfortunate to have their one trip in the peak season.
As for posters trying to show how elite they are, telling us that you holiday in 3 week spells and spend up to 12k would put you squarely in the bracket you are admonishing. You'll forgive me if I ignore your criticism as a result.
