Fortysomethings and mini-breaks

Aka child-free zone. The most carefully planned manoeuvre since the Battle of the Bulge for many fortysomethings, and totally not to be confused with the family holiday. Likely to be accompanied by wild fantasies and dreams of doing strange non-child-oriented things that will involve uninterrupted:

1. Sex
2. Reading
3. Adult conversations
4. Meals
5. Urination

Even if the airport is miles from the destination and the people dance in felt national costumes in your hotel foyer, this will not matter. It is enough that no one is telling you what they have done in the toilet or asking you what concrete is, for a minimum of two days.
