I have Prestwick Airport close by, but for us folks up North we have to pay up to an extra £ 60-100 per person for trips to the Med. With diesel prices now cheaper than petrol, my drive next month will be approx £40 cheaper than it was two years ago. So as much as I like Palma Nova, and I would avoid the treck at Palma Airport as I would get assisted passage there - no walking - my drive to Norfolk and boat hire with thanks to Richos discount my holiday next month is a very good deal indeed. As for the weather, you dress accordingly! Iain
