Having had to do 'local' holidays in the UK this year, if by the summer I still can't go abroad I'll most probably stay at home in London. I remember getting stuck in a massive tailback of caravans north of Newcastle thanks to even more caravans getting stuck at a junction and wondering "why the hell am I doing this?". To each his own I guess but, as far as holidays go, our two "staycations" in the UK were wholly forgettable.
