See our pick of the best gardens in England, Wales and Scotland.
Munich, Germany
Berlin may be the capital, but Munich's often more expensive. The secret is to stay slightly out of the centre - the public transport network is brilliant anyway so it makes little difference. Aside from the usual pull of the beer halls and day trips to fairytale castles, Munich has a number of lesser-known quirky attractions to explore. For example, you can climb all over the roof of the Olympiastadion, check out the BMW factory and watch surfers ride artificial waves in the gigantic Englischer Garten park.
Why 2012? Munich is hosting the 2012 Champions League final on 19 May.

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.
