Mate at work has 2 holiday houses in Donegal, doing me a good rate, so I'll be having a week there in June.
Quite possibly followed by a good few days to a week in Dublin.

Ancestors are from Co Mayo (not [i]that[/i] far from Donegal) so I'll be doing some research while there. And some good craic too, no doubt 🙂

Weekend away in a couple of weeks with 20 other people (will be a big piss up)

Hopefully away in the caravan to the lakes or a week aboard somewhere but have to watch the money as we
are going on a 14 night caribbean cruise in March 2014 which is costing a pretty penny so at least we have something to look forward to even through its 14 months away 😯

Taking the kids to Florida for a fortnight next month - at 13 and 11 they're the right age I reckon. Should be a cracking family holiday.

Possibly a road bike week in the Pyrenees in June, and there is a rumour of a week doing the trail centres in Wales, but I am struggling to see the enjoyment in that. Odd, I know, but they have never floated my boat that much. Might base myself in the Brecons instead and meet friends as they come south.

Im off to Australia for a month in February with my wife. Were stopping at Sydney, melbourne, and Adelaide to see family. We've all sorts booked and I can't wait. So far were walking the top of sydney harbour bridge, jumping out of a plane, swimming with great whites, driving the coast road for a couple of days in a supercharged v8 mad max style to see the 12 apostles, before going to see the clipsal 500. A few concerts at the aderlade fringe festival before calming it down and chilling on kangaroo island for a few days. Stoping in Singapore for 3 nights on the way home too.

Can't bloody wait. Goodbye wettest 12 months in history, hello 48 degrees.
