My honeymoon night was at The Vineyard in Stockcross..... pure luxury!! 10 days later we went to Taba in Egypt, it wasn't perfect but it will always be something I remember even if I am now divorced!! xx

we both worked in travel so got some good deals! spent our wedding night in the Waldorf Hotel in the Strand, then we went to Curacao in the Netherland Antilles (Caribbean, near Venezuela). It was v nice apart from ex being ill for a couple of days (shame!!). Particularly enjoyed the curry goat mmmmmmmm !! Maz. XX

Orlando, Florida. Was meant to be Orlando, Florida, then on to New York, but that didn't happen because of 9/11 (first day of our honeymoon !). It was a fairly crap 2 weeks to be honest. The honeymoon was ORIGINALLY going to be Maldives/Sri Lanka, but we had to rearrange (thats a whole other story lol)

Torquay for two weeks in 1957. was lovely weather all the time & YES we did get out and about LOL

Priory Hotel, near Seaveiw, Isle of Wight. Wonderful hotel set in own grounds and private bay. Viv

!st marriage, couldn't afford one. 2nd marriage, had 3 kids, so we took them along for a week at Pontins. That was 20yrs ago. They're all grown up now, and as we've just sold a piece of land, next year we're gonna have a mega luxury belated honeymoon! Just got the brochures now....

We're getting married next year and 'island hopping' around the South Pacific. AL

First marriage - didnt have one. Instead we blew 400 squid on a new BSA motorbike. A lot of money back in the late 60s. Second marriage - didnt have one as we had already been living together for a few years and it seemed a bit pointless. But on our wedding night, I slept on the sofa and hubby slept on a camp bed - mother-in-law was drunk and passed out in our bed! lol

We went for a week in Skiathos. It was lovely!! Carol

A lovely little place called Hearthstone Edge lol! Jen

First one was The Black Forest in Germany but only because he had combined it with a metallurgists conference and therefore it was free! I spent all week on the wives tour and when I asked if we could spend just one evening together instead of with all his colleagues he replied 'well the honeymoon's over and they are my mates'. Second one was a very wet three days in the Cotswolds spent in a couple of rather interesting hotels, one of which was run by a woman who had a mountain of personal problems and proceeded to regale us with all of them for hours and hours. Actually they were horrific problems but not what we wanted to be dealing with on our honeymoon. Now for my third one...........................ssssh don't tell hubby! lol Daisy

St Lucia - lovely people, but we were quite upset to see the poverty in the areas away from the ' touristy ' bit - enjoyed the 2wks but it did make us think about our priorities in life!!

We went to Rethymnon in Crete for a week and it was fantastic. We were really lucky as my Dad and Step Mum paid for it as a Wedding Present. We can't wait to go back there - wonderful place. Kaye x

We went to Tunisia for a fortnight in 1989 (is it really that long ago?) It was very hot with lots of flies. We have not been back. Liz

Christmas 1969. Perth, Scotland with a day at Glenshee to have a go at Skiing.

Devon. We stayed with our friend who had just moved into her house.....we spent the week pulling out fire places and decorating.....i did the garden parts of it, got a great tan lol And low and behold......my parents turned up for the last weekend....deep joy lol. So two months later, we popped off to the Mountains in Spain some where.

Ten days in Ibiza - 1971 It rained every day but one: worst storms in living memory, apparently. Enjoyed it, though.

I went to Blackpool. Not sure where my wife went. That glorious summer of 1959. And as for the last bit of your posting - mind your own business. Happy days (only joking above - I think)

Majorca in 1965, was a very new place to go in those days, and our first holiday abroad. Never been back there since though enjoyed the place at the time.

Linda (missing her man) Funny you should say that about your Bridal suite. Ours was as well, and we also had a double and a single bed!! Strange! was it supposed to be ' the huffy bed' do you think. We didn't have to use it happily. lol Mau xx
