Jane, my wife's father is Italian and so we have family scattered about Italy :-). The region which I love the most is Tuscany....beautiful :-). I agree, Florence is a wonderful city :-).

Devon in April, Seahouses/Whitby/Middlesbrough June, annual family camping July, France August, Majorca Sept/Oct and anything else we can fit in.This will probably involve me having a few days away on my own in Devon with the tent. We have no family silver left, I have pawned it all to finance holidays. AND, any burglars will be caught on my CCTV. Bob

I can happily give my dates for Sheffield ...oh yea I already have ! :-D As for my house codes it depends what part of the house you want to get to and which member of the family I will leave behind :-D :-D :-D
PS there is no code to Mini apart from the ankle ;-)

The great part of my life is my house is never empty ;-)

We're off to Devon in the summer.
5 adults and 5 children ranging in age from 4 to 13.

Piers, 12 of us went to Tuscany for a week about 7 years ago.
The children were a lot smaller then (1 didn't exist, but there were more adults).
We managed the long trek okay - my sister won't fly so we went by train. Beautiful scenery, wonderful house - but it rained every day :-|
Even the owners of the rented house had never seen so much rain in years.

Since then, we've stuck to the UK. Cheaper to get to and easier to leave early if the rain doesn't stop!!

Es Cana in Ibiza is gorgeous - been there three times - make sure you go to the Hippy Market on Tuesdays and also go on all the little boat trips to the other resorts - don't bother with the glass bottom boat trip - it's a rip off. Also take the road train around the island

Cyprus I adore - been there about six times, usually Ayia Napa, which in spite of it's bad press is gorgeous - always get new specs there - much cheaper than the UK - Vrachimis opticians trained in Cardiff and have the most up to date equipment, specs usually take no more than a day
