I’d love to go on holiday this year! We haven’t had a proper holiday for 5 years – mainly because my hubby is self-employed and can’t really leave his work for any length of time. He’s promised me we can go away this year though. I’d love to go to the Greek Islands – the sea looks so blue and the water, so clear and refreshing.
My husband and I need a holiday, I got made redundant this year so money has been tight and my husband hasn’t had a day off since Christmas and we could really do with some quality time together.
I haven’t been on holiday this year and haven’t been abroad for a few years now so I would love to go somewhere warm and sunny.i’d probably go back to Malta because I love it there.

I’d love a holiday because it’s been many years since I last had one and the rain and grey skies here are so utterly depressing – a good dose of sunshine in the Med would do wonders for my body and soul :) x

I would love to treat my mum as she has had a horrible past couple of years :( I would take her to somewhere like Croatia or Minorca.
I really need a holiday because I have not been on one in about 6 years. As a family we have never been out of this rainy old country so would be fab to go on a sunny beach holiday with my husband and 2 young girls. I’m thinking sunny Spain would do the trick nicely.
Im having a wee bambino in nov and this will prob be the last time i get away for a LONGGGG time :)

Have forgotten what summer weather is really like. A break would be great.
Our 9 yr old son has worked at his swimming training & it has paid off for him, he has won so many medals & trophies this year. He trains 5 days per week, including 4.30 am starts, which is tough on us all.
I think we could all do with a break but especially him. Who knows, you could be rewarding a future Olympic star (fingers crossed!)
I would let him choose our destination, but somewhere hot would be 1st choice. He would love to visit Turkey as we have never been.
Would love a trip to Iceland, I like most bands that originate from there and the secenery looks amazing

I would love to take my children to France. We haven’t had the opportunity to take a holiday since 2007 and it would mean the world to have a break together before my eldest leaves for University in the Autumn.

Like everyone else I’m sure, been hit by the economic times, having to pay my way through uni via a full time job on top of all the studying, and I didn’t even get to take a break from it all with a summer holiday. I’d love to take a quick break to Denmark!
my husband lost his job in january and so we cant afford to give are children a holiday this year ,plus ive had depression for 3 years and ffor weeks and months on end i couldnt get out of bed it was that bad,i got told 3 months ago i have bipolar 2 ,but i feel ever so guilty that i have wasted my 3 years in bed and missed my daughters growing up for 3 years,so i would love some time away now im better to makeup to my children and spend that missed quality time with them x
I am a “Carer”, one of the people who look after a friend or member of their family. It is an unpaid job which takes a lot out of my own life. I can’t just go off on the spur of the moment, it has to be planned many weeks in advance, so that the person I care for does not suffer.
(Please read “The Selfish Pigs Guide to Caring”).
I’d love to go to Portugal or Croatia. Neither my partner nor I have been to either of those countries, so it would be great to experience new cultures. We’ve had a huge year, with me completing a degree and passing my driving test, and him becoming a qualified Engineer. We moved in together last week, but with me not yet working money is tight. A holiday would be a perfect celebration for everything we’ve achieved this year, and for the good times to come in living together.
We haven’t managed to have a family holiday abroad since way before my children of 5 and 3 were born, so it would be a great opportunity for us!! Thank you for the chance! :)

Me and My Fiance could do with a holiday for the pure reason being that we haven’t been abroad since 2010 and we are saving hard for our wedding in 2014, so we can’t afford to do it. It would be amazing to have time from work and the every day stresses of life to enjoy some quality time away together, in the sun where we can have fun and relax :-).
I really need a holiday, I really need some sun because this British Summertime is lacking in some sun. The beaches are wet and so is the grass and to be quite honest it’s a pain in the ass. So whisk me off to somewhere hot where I won’t catch cold or be filled with snot!

I dream I fly away to Spain,

Because I took the hard decision to walk away from a job last month due to workplace bullying as I didn’t want to end up ill or at a tribunal like many of my colleagues. I’ve been job- hunting for two years, without success. So this, for us, would mean a break to recharge and enjoy life: there’s no way we’ll be able to have a holiday otherwise.

i would love to win as i have never been abroad and it would be nice to show my son the better things in life . we tried to go camping for the first time this year , we went to loch lommond and the tent leaked and we had to come home so it would be great to get away :)
I need a break because I haven’t had any time to relax since having my son, now 8 months old, and a holiday is thoroughly needed!
I have been been out of work for nearly a year now so can’t afford a holiday or anything but would like to get away and get some sunshine anywhere with on the Beach Holiday, Please let it be me
I would like to go back to Croatia. I would love to relax after 3 long years of working full time and also studying for me degree in the evenings.
I need the sunshine because I am fed up with rain, rain and more rain. somewhere hot will do.
would love to get away with my daughter as it would probably be our last holiday together (she’s 17)- not bothered where, maybe Greece as never been
not been away this year after my knee op and its been depressing enough looking at the rain through the window so i would love a nice family break :)
I’d love to go to the South of France, It’s easy to get to, beautiful scenery, hot weather, wonderful food and so many thngs to see and do. I’d love to win to be able to treat my partner who has not hardly had any time off this year as work has been so busy.
ive not been abroad for 6 years and i really want to go to Bulgaria or Malta
tenerife, i love the place, used to go when i was younger, nice and warm!
I really need to get away to a warmer climate as i have brain disease & chronic neuro pain daily , the english weather does not help ,but warmer weather and water to swim in helps with my pain no end , so I would love a holiday <3
I’d love to get away this year, my husband has been taxi-ing people to the airport all year for little money & i would love to win one as its our 30th anniversary & with money being so tight i cant afford to treat him i’d love to go to Eygpt as his one wish is to see the pyramids.
Would love to go to Tenerife – great weather, great people and really relaxing
Somewhere sunny for the honeymoon my husband and I never had!
Just to get away with my three boys and hubby would be a fntastic tie, we have not had any time off together and we need it.
I am going to start looking after my first grandchild soon and would love to have a last break before I do this. I would love to visit Greece or Cyprus as i have never been and they look stunning.
I really need a holiday this year as I’ve not been away in over a year now, my job is awful, I get paid very little, and in September my girlfriend goes away for a year to study. I’d love so much for us to be able to go away together, just once, before she goes, but we can’t afford it. We really just want the opportunity to spend some quality time together, and perhaps to even see some sunshine in this otherwise terrible summer, but work and unrelenting poverty are preventing us. Our only hope is to win our way somewhere nice!
And we’d go anywhere together, just somewhere sunny!
My partner recently lost his job so I would really love to be able to take him away to cheer him up, anywhere ‘on the beach’ as this British weather isn’t doing much to lift spirits. Sharm el sheikh would be a perfect break!
Promised myself a holiday after I graduated in 2008, but the recession put pay to that. Seems an eternity since I last got away.
florida :0 to meet mickey mouse lol
I want to take my daughter to disneyworld. We are planning to have another baby soon which means that holidays will be out for a couple of years and I really want to get away before then.
I’d love a holiday because it may be the last before we start a family so I’d love to go somewhere exotic like the Maldives!
This awful weather leaves me longing for sunnier climes
Anywhere hot would be nice please
I have had to work just about every day this summer because of the Olympics. My wife and two little daughters deserve a holiday with daddy to make up for all the time I can’t be at home.
We would really enjoy a beach holiday somewhere hot. It’s a big world and there are to many places to discover to have any favorites, however, I do love the Mediterranean.
I need a holiday because I’m desperate to get away from my bully of a husband !!! I woud love to go to Majorca with my Mum …
India for my honeymoon
both my girlfriend and I work in the public sector and both are at risk with our jobs so we darent spend money on a holiday until we know weve got a secure job again so this would be a great treat :)
I’d like to go somewhere sunny because I’m cold
We would love to win money to spend on a holiday to the Algarve, as the last time we went, my partner got very sunburned and spent the whole week indoors in agony! I would therefore spend £400 on the holiday and the rest on suncream! :)
Had enough of this dreary weather and in desperate need of some sun
really need a holiday as hubby gets very grumpy over British winters, I’m convinced he suffers from SAD. This year we’ve had so little sunshine that if he doesn’t get his quota we could be in for a very miserable winter! I’d love to take him to Portugal – plenty of sun but no time difference to mess with his system :-)
Hubby lost his job so spirits are low and finances chronic, but a New Zealand holiday would be the perfect tonic.
I would love the excitement of a holiday abroad, as my children and husband have never flown before. I would love to take them to Spain or the Balaerics.
To celebrate my 40th in style it would be lovely to go to Rome for a weekend with my husband.
hello there ……… really need a holiday as have been poorly for over 5 weeks, think I have suffered stress due to finances being so tough, I am just starting to undertake fostering, so would really like to take my
foster child on a special fun holiday. please give me the golden ticket……………………………….xxxxxxx
Fingers and toes crossed for this!!
three years of losing… the people that we loved , the good health that we hoped for , the jobs that we needed , the smiles that we longed for , the laughter that we listened for ,now we wish for a holiday , a holiday we dream of , to cuba
An Egyptian holiday would be really nice,
But really can’t afford the price.
Deals and On the Beach can make my day
By giving me the chance to get away
Really cannot stand the rain
Its becoming a real pain!!!
To turn the rust from the rain into a tan from some sun
i have just finished a 6 year distance learning degree and would really like a holiday
I need a holiday from the summer rain – have you noticed the leaves are falling from the trees? Aaaaargh when did summer happen?
I love to go to Cyprus in October when our weather here starts to turn a bit cooler – a lovely chance to catch some sun this year!
As a family we dont get away very often now the boys are “grown up” so a super holiday in the sunshine would be a great time to catch up and have fun. We all love Majorca so that would be a perfect destination.
I’d love to go to Spain to visit my brother and his wife. They’ve just had a kid and i haven’t had the chance to visit them yet
My sister split up with her long term boyfriend and her house recently got flooded so she could do with some time away from the rain – some sun, sea and fun to cheer her up. I’d like to be able take her mind off things and take her away. You just can’t be cheery when it’s raining every day!
Because I absolutely love travelling and new adventure, and I wouldn’t mind a bit more sun this summer !
Have not been able to get away for over 6 years and I need some sun and cheer and escapism. Would love to go to Turkey as it sounds so interesting
I promised my wife a return to Jamaica for our 10th wedding anniversary, as we got married there. Can’t see us being able to afford it, but desperately don’t want to let her down.
I would love to take my son to disneyland paris, we need some quality time together because I have to work a lot
I’d love to win a holiday this year as I found out I was pregnant just before we booked our summer holiday. So, instead of flying off to somewhere hot we decided to clear the little bit of debt we had so that we’re in a good position for when the baby arrives. boring, I know but sensible. However, we’d love one last holiday together before we get up to the eyes in nappies and whatever else, it would be good to have a nice relaxing week before the birth. I’d like to go somewhere hot but not too far away, so Rhodes or Turkey as these were the places we originally looked at.
I desperately need a holiday this year after spending the last 6 months doing nothing but work! It’s been a case of go to work for 40 hours each week, come home and work practically non stop until bed on the new house my girlfriend and I have bought which we have absolutely gutted. Just got the tiling to do now and we can start to relax a bit.
This would be a great prize
I would love to win a holiday to Tenerife – i went when i was 18 and thats over 18 years ago now so would love to see how much its changed (i still think of myself as a teenager so it would be nice to see it through ‘grown up’ eyes!) lol
If we won this prize we would like to go to a family friendly resort in the sunshine, not fussed where just as long as we can spend some time together as a family as we do not get a chance at the moment due to purchasing a house that needed a total refurb. It is important to spend time together as a family.
After a tough year for both of us, I would like to take my best friend and housemate to a far away land with sun, sea and siestas. She needs to go out dancing all night, wake up with the sunshine pouring through her window and spend her days lounging on a beach with a cool, crisp glass of something fizzy.
We’re not fussy on when, or where, just a simple town or city with culture, sunshine and most importantly laughter. Fliss X
I need a holiday in the sun as I’m sick of the rain! I would love to go to a Caribbean island, to sip cocktails on a white sandy beach!
anywhere as its hot and sunny.. i need some sun sea and sangria!
Like most folks feeling the strain of the credit crunch and the rubbish Scottish weather.
Would love to treat my kids and partner to anywhere sunny with a pool.
I would really like a holiday as I always do a lot of voluntary work for the community, always putting others first helping them with their addiction problems. Furthermore I have recently found out my partner is pregnant and would like to take her away somewhere before the baby comes, as we already have a 3 and a half year old so it might be a while before we can get away again. My dream holiday is the Maldives or somewhere in the Caribbean.
I would love to win a holiday to spend quality time with my 13 month old daughter and better half.
Winning a holiday would mean the world – me and my partner have not been able to afford a holiday for years, even in the uk, but also the past two years my partner has been house and bed bound and I have been her full time carer – she is just beginning to improve and for the first time during these two years is well enough to go on holiday, so winning would be fantastic!
I would love to take my children to Turkey or Spain to have a lovely time in the Sun. As a single mum, we have not been abroad and I would love to treat them. But… would chose somewhere with a Kids Club, so that I can have a chill out while they are having fun, then they can tell me all about it afterwards x
I would really love to go on a nice holiday with my boyfriend. We have been going out for three years and have never had the time or money to go away as we have been studying hard to pass exams etc , i would love to treat him to a sunny beach holiday where we can forget about everything for a little while :):) xxx
would love to take my best friend on holiday, a week later in the year, somewhere like egypt would be fabulous
I need a holiday this summer because i’ve worked non-stop since last christmas and am totally whacked! I would like to go to Ibiza to get some badly wanted sunshine & relaxing time.
Would love to win a week in the sun as summer seems to have given us a miss this year
To be honest Who doesnt need a holiday in this weather? For me I would love a holiday as I have just finished 3 years of training to be a nurse. It was hard work and I struggled with money so it would be great to have a reward. I would love to go to Spain and see where my boyfriend used to live.
I’d love a holiday to the Maldives this year, I really need to chill out and relax!
Anywhere sunny would be good!!
We haven’t been able to afford a holiday this year and I would love to take the kids to Spain as they keep nagging to go on a plane again.
I’m not going to moan or share my pain – just say Help! I need to escape this rain
So I’ll be your mate for ever if you send me to sunny Spain!
British weather sucks! I’d love a holiday to somewhere hot. I have 6 kids, and just can’t afford to take them abroad.
I need a holiday this summer because I’ve not had one in 9 years. I really want to go to New York!

Girly time, love it.
Thailand is my dream!
My family would love a holiday ~anywhere would be nice!
I would love to win as me and my fiance are saving for our first home and family so there isn’t much money for holidays and we would love to go to NYC!
I need a holiday as hubby works 12 hrs a day often 6 days a week and with 1 child we cant afford a holiday this year. We self sufficient claiming no benefits and seems unfair he works so hard n cant afford a holiday when i see ppl claiming and going places like disney
I don’t deserve to win no more than anyone else but I would love to treat my children to a lovely holiday, somewhere where the weather is better than here… Turkey or Cyprus maybe
I love Venice – and I love my gorgeous mum.
I can’t think of anything nicer than to take her to Venice for her 70th birthday. x

I would like to give my wife a break,she has spent most of her life helping others, twenty three years as a foster carer caring for over 150 children.
Oh yes please!
No holiday on the horizon as I lost my job. I’m keen to return to Ibiza – fabulous walking terrain, safe swimming, cuisine to die for, sunshine, markets, historical sites and chill-out music.
I can stand the heat, so get me out of the kitchen!
I really need a holiday because I have been working hard this year and we are too skint to afford one. I have also just had a knee op so it would be great to get some sun in Majorca to recuperate :):)

able to afford one for at least another 3-4 years
I’d like a holiday back to Turkey simply because I love it there!
I would love to win this! If I won, I would go back to Turkey, the sun was beautiful, and the people were so friendly, I am getting over a brian tumour, so this would be a great rest for me.
I’d go to one of the Greek islands – probably Crete :) I love Greece
Would love to take the kids abroad for the 1st time ever! They’d love it and I think Menorca would be a perfect destination xx
I Really need a holiday as we cant afford one being a large family i would love to go tunisia
