The UK had one of the wettest summers on record this year and winter promises little relief. Flee the double-whammy of rising fuel costs and icy conditions with our pick of the world's top-10 sun destinations - places that are getting toasty just as we in Britain don our scarves. Our selection highlights hideaways that are still off-peak for tourism but offer such high odds for sunshine that no bookmaker would dare take bets. The result is a formula for good deals and blue sky breaks.
Take our tour of sundrenched boltholes from the British winter. Brrrr!
