As the nights draw in and the rain beats against the windows, I find myself window shopping for epic holidays - the 'first holiday I'd have if I won the lottery' sort of holiday. So, I'm sure some can do better than this, but here goes:

Flights: Now I originally thought of First Class in Emirates or BA, but then I came to realise that if we're talking 'money no object' then I may as well charter. How about: a gulfstream 550 from here: http://www.emtjets.com/

The stay: Initially, the best I could come up with was this: http://www.letouessrokresort.com/ or this: http://www.rayavadee.com/, but then I realised that why would you want other people encroaching on your relaxations, so how about: http://www.neckerisland.virgin.com/ (although it may be off limits for a while due to the fire). But hang on, why stay in one place when you could float around: http://www.navis-yacht-charter.com/sailing_yacht_m...

So, to fly to Necker in the jet is going to be around (my estimate) £80,000. A week on Necker at
£175,000 (again estimate) and then jet back to somewhere in the Med (another £80,000) to pick the Falcon up for a week at £300,000. Total cost for a two week holiday is £635,000. You could comfortably take 12 people so it would only work out at £53k per head...

Ho hum, back to reality - caravan in skegness...

I came within an ace of booking that very holiday but they wanted 2.5% credit card charge. Thieving gets!
