From Pontins to Paradise.

Episode 129

In the nostalgic maze of holiday comparisons, the generation gap is a Grand Canyon. My holidays, back in the day, started with the delightful symphony of Mum peeing in a plastic bucket. It was my version of a morning alarm, a less-than-soothing wake-up call to the fragrant reality of life. Now, fast-forward to the offspring's adventures—they're globe-trotting, sampling exotic cuisines that has envy-inducing Instagram influencers going crazy.Yet, amidst the cultural odysseys, one common thread binds us: boredom. We share this yawn-inducing, universal sentiment, separated by four decades but united by a collective eye-roll at holiday monotony. The scenery has changed from the plastic bucket to passport stamps, but the essence remains. So, whether it's deciphering the nuances of ancient civilizations or decoding Mum's morning bucket ballet, the boredom transcends time, creating a peculiar bond across the generations. Welcome to the holiday continuum, where the only thing that doesn't age is the relentless pursuit of excitement to fend off the drowsy embrace of boredom.

Happy 2024.
