christmas is overrated. i celebrated in bahrain last year and quite enjoyed watching santa and his helpers from philipines in crowne plaza. food was good, booze was fine and my son enjoyed the unlimited desserts.. :thumbsup:

not sure what we're doing this year, probably something similar. also going for 10 days to an adults only all inclusive resort in Jamaica earlier in December so will do my celebrating then..

Thanks folks.. Was considering Sri Lanka and Thailand. Just trawling Expedia at the moment, possible 2/3 changes. Anyone recommend any other websites to trawl through. I just want two weeks on the beach drinking cocktails and the kids kept entertained. Like I have nothing better to do............ erm actually I dont!!!!

Emirates fly to both - one change in Dubai... may not be cheap though.

Possibly but that depends how quickly you drink the litre...
