I'm not sure why it's an issue? Do you not agree with people getting drunk at Disney? Genuine question not baiting

[Ruthy1604]

Absolutely I would go.

You only live once, and as long as your DW is OK with it, I wouldn't hesitate.

PS.

When I heard that the Osborne lights were ending, DH and I flew over to see them one last time. We stayed 2 nights & flew home again. Left the teens at home

Did I feel guilty - a bit.
Do I regret it - nope not a bit. We had a whale of a time

As I said each to their own. There isn't an issue and I have no problem with people getting drunk at Disney. I enjoy a drink myself and drink at Disney and anywhere else I chose to. The op asked for opinions and I gave mine.

Missing out on the title is tough, particularly in the manner it happened yesterday, but we can't be disappointed with our season. Looking forward to our visit to Goodison - one of only a handful of the 92 I've not done.

I accept I'm biased but you'll be hard pushed you I find a better atmosphere than goodison on its day!
I've been invited down to Brighton for the away fixture by Brighton fans who sponsor so interesting to see what you can offer!

So I guess, you have decided not to take me then

In true decisive BB manner I have to answer with complete honesty and say "I don't know" which probably means I would.

In' my distant past I did do a trip on my own. It had been a tough couple of years (death o my Grandmother who I adored,death of my father) and so I went to FL for 10 days.

Would I do it now if finances permitted? I would probably err on the side of "no". If I thought it would be the last trip and I would deprive any children of their turn to go (and me take them) then the answer would def be no.

OP it has to be your choice - but let us know what you decide please!

Did you go?
I travel to the far east regularly on business without my husband so we don't 'live in each other's pocket', but I'd never go on a 'holiday' trip without him. I enjoy his company, he's my best friend and I'd be quite lonely without him. This type of trip is a family one, I couldn't go alone

We've been married nearly 40 years, spend most of our free time very happily together, but in a situation like this DH would be the first to say 'go', enjoy it, and bring me some whisky back - knowing that we'd be going together later in the year.
Each to their own, but would some of the responses be different if money were not a factor?

I must admit, I didn't expect my parenting and, errrm, partnering to be called into question in the way it has. Each time there's a knock at the door today, I'm expecting it to be social services coming to take my son away...

Money isn't really a factor. No one will be missing out on anything if I do pop across, although that's looking increasingly unlikely now as I sit here procrastinating (and checking flight prices for August).

I wouldn't go by myself. Not because I can't be away from my family (although I'd miss them), I just wouldn't enjoy myself. It's our family place and it wouldn't be right without them.
My son particularly would be furious if I swanned of to Florida without him 😬
