Time to plan your holiday!

Well before we get too far into the year it may be a good idea to think about planning this year’s holiday.

You could choose to stay in the UK and perhaps take a trip to Skegness but as this resort has just been branded as a pariah of the tourist world on a par with Pyongyang, Mogadishu and Damascus, you might want to consider something a bit more exotic.

Wish you were here?

And if exotic is what you are thinking about, nothing is likely to be much more exotic than the bus tours offered by Brighouse based, Hinterland Travel, who offer tours to war torn areas of Afghanistan but you must be prepared for roadside bombs, Kalashnikov-toting bandits and Taliban attacks.

Hinterland Travel

The company is run by a 79-year old Yorkshireman, Geoff Hann and amazingly since starting tours in 2002, it was only last year that any of his tours have run into serious trouble when his party of 12 holidaymakers  – 8 Brits, 3 Americans and 1 German – were forced to dive behind a roadside wall as their vehicle went up in flames, before a nearby army and police vehicle came to their rescue.

According to Mr Hann some of his clients on that trip have been very difficult and demanded their money back. But Mr Hann is annoyed by their attitude, claiming that they will be able to dine out for years on the story of how they got shot at by the Taliban!

Well it’s certainly different!

See you again tomorrow,
