December break?
Just been thinking about a short break in December, as I can only carry forward 5 days holiday into 2007 (I currently have 7.5). So I either take 3 Mondays in December off work, or I try and squeeze in a little trip somewhere.
Other complicating factors are:
1) I can't take time off before 14 December as I've got to do a presentation on either 6 or 13th at Uni.
2) I've got an Christmas parties on 15 and 21 December, which gives me a window of 17-20th December.
3) I'd like to go somewhere cold and I want to go from a local airport.
4) I don't want to book til quite late and I want it dirt cheap.
A tall order, but there may be some possibilities.
Options
Liverpool-Krakow, stupidly expensive
Liverpool-Oslo, bargain 99p return flight. Total cost 36quid return!!
Liverpool-Tampere (Finland), cheap 55quid return.
Any takers?

Such a good idea you posted it twice.
Due to weekend in Milan and skiing before Xmas (and NY away) I am unavailable.
But for what it's worth I imagine both Oslo and Tampere would be very nice in the winter. I have nothing to base that on only I expect them to be cold and snowy!
Hope this helps!

I'm still in school on those dates, but I have pals and relations in Norway and Finland if you get into trouble Anton!
I'd be tempted by Tampere. It claims to be the "Manchester of Finland". I'd struggle to see how it could be, but would like to see it first hand to make that judgement, especially if there's an ice hockey match on! Decemeber is pretty easy for me to get time off. My customer has a "change freeze" then which severly limits what work I can do!
