Happy weekend! I hope you've got lots of things planned.... if you're free Tuesday evening and fancy popping along to meet our river cruise expert to talk sun, scenery, wine and fine dining then we have a few places left.

We'll have some Leeds Bradford departures as well as options for people who don't want to fly or can't fly so you may never need to head to the airport! As usual we have drinks, nibbles, prizes and lots of fun facts so do feel free to book on, share with your friends or bring a friend - hope to see you there!

It's Friday which means one thing... deal of the week! P&O are running a taster cruise to Rotterdam and Zeebrugge on their flagship Britannia on the 11th October. We have been lucky enough to be invited to road test this cruise but at £529 for a balcony its great value!

🚢 5 nights in a Balcony Cabin aboard Britannia
🚢 Full board dining and all tips / service charges - add a drinks and WIFI package
🚢 2 days in Rotterdam - we intend to catch the water taxi to the windmills weather permitting!
🚢 1 Day in Zeebrugge - its not just about Bruges - try the tram that sits behind the coast and head to somewhere the locals would go to for chocolate, a beach bar, Belgian beer or moules frites!

Its a great opportunity to sample a cruise!

As the nights draw in and the grass greens up after the long hot summer, the Mediterranean summer still has much to offer, the weather is often kind, mass tourism has peaked with more moderate temperatures and decent periods of sun.

We're also in cruise month, so look out for the very best the cruise lines have to offer and it may just be the time to bag your winter break or start planning for next summer!

Our next magazine is due out shortly, so is now the right time to bag your next holiday?
