| Booking arrangements |
There are two lists of owners - one for the high season from 01/04 to
30/09 and one for the low season from 01/10 to 31/03.
Each year everybody moves 2 places up the high season list and 2 places
down the low season list.
The booking secretary invites the first on the list to pick their weeks
then moves on to the next person on the list.
|
| Special holiday arrangements |
Generally owners are willing to move around but there is no guarantee if
you don't have early picks. It can be argued that retired couples are
also grandparents and sometimes may wish to take their grandchildren on
holiday during school holidays. H
