Best holiday spots in the eurozone
Berlin, Germany

Because of the booming German economy, people tend to imagine that Germany is more expensive than it is - but the country can be refreshingly light on the wallet. For example, the recent Hotels.com Hotel Price Index named Berlin as the cheapest city in the world for five-star hotel accommodation. Given the great mix of history, nightlife fantastic art scene, few places are this easy on the pocket.
Why 2012? Berlin's new Willy Brandt airport opens in June, and a number of airlines are beefing up their services. Lufthansa, for example, will be adding extra flights from Birmingham and Manchester.

Yes I agree, its time to book a family holiday in the sun. Not a lot of point saving with very little return on your already heavily taxed money . Sick of other people making money on my investments and choosing not to pay out much in return blaming the economic climate. Working all the hours you can get and not getting much richer , take a break and enjoy some of the hard earned cash while you've still got it.

I totally agree with you ....but ...sorry I need a holiday !
There is a limit as to how much we need to be made to feel individually responsible for the current situation.
As for putting money into something with growth..... that doesn't happen at the moment. Interest rates are abysmal, house prices not rising etc .
So, sorry, but this weekend we're booking our holidays for the next few months.
