Er, no, not really.

A decent UK holiday is way less Council than an all-inclusive (or indeed most package holidays) to any of those awful resorts across the planet much-loved by the tattooed, foul-mouthed crowd that disgrace Britain each holiday period.

Try and tell that to all the multi millionaire and billionaire Arab, Chinese, Russian etc... groups that summer in the U.K. every year

While we rarely vacation in the U.K. now I would much rather that than consider heading some where like the Spainish Costa's or Balearics / Canaries

[Whistle]

One of the best holidays I have had was in the Scottish highlands.

I've only ever been on a Abercrombie and Kent package holiday, so not sure what you mean

Off-Roading is becoming council.... bashed up Suzuki Jimnys with massive spotlights and a snorkel litter the road sides of council estates these days.

Holidayed in Addingham Yorkshire for 5 days, 2 weeks ago; we spent all week walking the Yorkshire moors with our 2 dogs, most definately not council.

Hmm, slightly inappropriate but quite well done and not really council.

Oh come on, it's awfully council...

Been to some very posh weddings and seen worse to be honest.

Define 'posh wedding'.

That story was Council as anything; the pictures alone tell you all you need to know. Best Man with football scarf round his neck for a start.

In Penang, Malaysia.

No councilistas here.. glory days.

Queuing outside the bookies waiting for it to open. Don't know if it's council or just a bit pathetic, it ticks many boxes.

Council.

And holidaying in the UK is awesome. West Dorset, northern Scotland, the list goes on.

Weirdly location dependent. Take the Norfolk coast. Hunstanton is all Kiss Me Quick hats, tattoos and fish 'n' chips. A mile or so to the east, all the children are called Hugo and Jocasta and the parents all wear Boden shorts and Docksiders.

Rosé wine.

Especially Mateus rose. It's one of the few names Council know. (Used to be Blue Nun, Black Tower, etc. now it's likely to be Hardys or Blossom Hill.)

Blossom Hill is the staple Council brand...when such consumers splash on branded wine.

I fear that Council has moved into my apartment block. I was putting bottles in the appropriate bin but had problems becasue it was overflowing with empty 1-litre Buckfast bottles. PH members in Northern Ireland and Glasgow will know this libation well. I was told the other day that the mediaeval monks' recipe has been enhanced in recent times with astronomic amounts of caffeine. Real chav drink.

Later that day I saw the possible culprit, fag in mouth, red mohican stripe, wearing a basketball top in that odd colour of greyish-white that only Council seem able to obtain from their clothing. I assume the grubbiness comes from filthy sofas covered in dog hair, fag ash, discarded fast food, and a washing machine that has a minor fault fixable for £10 but which is in true Council fashion, unusable.
