I've never been to Center Parcs... it's just been too expensive

For those prices i'd expect some sort of futuristic paradise, Logan's Run without the Sandmen, rather than a collection of huts, a few paths and an indoor pool with slide combo

 

And without the under 30 policy?

 

Otherwise we're all doomed.

We're going from Friday to Monday and it's about 350 for a two storey lodge, not bad I thought.

I couldn't imagine going without kids. It would be like sitting down in the middle of a creche facility on a package holiday with all your beardy mates.

There's deffo a few awkward looks when we're out.

 

Some of the kids were a bit freaked out I think when my mate was having a piss in the swimming pool bogs singing: "I want to be, having a wee, in an Octopus's garden, in the aids."

To expand on what Lizzie has said (and mention of his nipsy certainly made me expand) you may also have cases in which people have a yellow and a red safe word. 

 

The yellow to signify a limit is near being reached and the red for stop altogether. Or so I've heard.

Was that you in the Grecian mask?

They have at least £100 in cash in their wallet at all times.

 

My wallet is genuinely empty at all times, unless I'm out on the piss.

At which case I debate whether getting £70 or £80 out is enough at the cash machine, opt for £70 and then end up getting another £40 out later anyway when I'm pissed and have ran out.

 

 

How flash are you with your 70 or 80 quid, while I debate with myself whether 30 will be enough!

 

How you hold your money is possibly an indicator of class in itself. I was chatting with 2 teacher friends last night who both agreed that kids from (not)working class homes were far better at basic maths than their better off peers who have much less experience of handling actual money as so much in their lives is paid for by debit/credit cards

 

I find the opposite, they tend to be quite cash poor because all their money is tied up in the extension.

Have you ever seen a middle class couple eating someone else's food? Say, at a wedding or a birthday bash? It's like spmeomw threw some chicken satay sticks into a lion's cage.

You will also never, ever see anyone as excited as a middle class couple at a carvery. The kid gets a fruit shoot and some chicken goujons while mum and dad take their lack of promotion frustrations out on the gammon with a glazed look that's s curious mix of desperation and concentration that says 'if I don't eat this, someone may take it from me.'

Agree with Stringy on the carvery. And genuine middle class kids can forget the fruit shoots; its plain tap water for them. Sugary drinks, rots their teeth, you know
