Normally I would never think of taking a pair of trousers on holiday with me.

HOWEVER, I went shopping at the weekend and I found such a nice pair that I am going to have to take them with me!

Take a look:

Aren’t they lovely! They are so light and cool so perfect for an evening out at sunset! Oooh romantic!

They are so comfortable and were such a good price too. I got them for £21 instead of £35! Bargain. Teamed with a nice white tank top and a pair of brown sandals they will look amazing!

So now I cannot wait for my holiday, to sit in the evening, after a long day of sunbathing and chilling by the pool, with a cocktail and watch the sun go down! Perfect!

I was recently comparing flight prices online for an upcoming trip, I was sifting through options on one of those travel price comparison websites, finding myself looking for the ultimately cheapest option.

Most of us will do this to book trips these days, but it got me thinking, are any of us still loyal to our favourite airlines, or do we even have favourites any more?

I remember in years gone by I'd speak to people who were enamoured by flying with British Airways, while others swore by the service offered on a Virgin Atlantic flight. People had preferred airlines, they'd go to travel agents and request their flights. But then in those days you'd get issued with flight tickets too - something very hard to imagine now in the world of online check-ins and print-your-own tickets!

These days I hear of no such preferences, instead I'm much more likely to hear grumblings of disappointment at budget airline service.

Do we all just take the cheapest option on offer now? When I'm planning a trip I'll try and get the best deal, and I'd rather fly with a reputable airline over an unknown budget airline - but only if I can get it cheap enough.
