The last few years I'd been very anti-package holidays. Instead wanting to really 'travel', soak up the European cities I've seen pictures off and finally get off the continent. But last week I took my first package holiday to Mallorca for five years thanks to a friend's wedding. It took me right back to my childhood and teenage years - and it was glorious.
1. One of the biggest decisions to be made is whether to have a cheese toastie or a cheese and ham toastie for breakfast.
2. You start to judge a restaurant on if they sell 'English bacon'.
3. Fanta Lemon and Lays Paprika crisps are a match made in heaven.
4. That hour sleep you have between having a shower and getting ready to go out will always be the best kip all holiday.
5. You become addicted to applying after sun after the shower. Often applying two coats just to make sure you go really brown.
6. Aloe Vera gel from the fridge feels like absolute heaven on sunburn.
7. You rage at the idiots who get up early to save the sunbeds by the pool with their towel. Then give in after the first day and join them -whilst absolutely hating yourself for joining in.
8. Getting up really early every day despite having an almighty hangover because you're so desperate to not waste the day. Then regretting it as soon as you start hearing the screaming children enjoying themselves on the beach.
9. Going out on the strip is just like being at home again with the same music, same shot girls and same grime. The only difference is the sun is shining.
10. You will always burn yourself on the last after getting too cocky. Every damn time.
