Long Stay Winter Holidays

I'm amazed more pensioners don't go abroad for the winter, rather than sit huddling in front of the fire. You might think how could a pensioner afford a long holdiay in the winter if they are struggling with the heating bills? It might make more sense than you think, lets say a couple went away for 8 weeks in Jan and February to Malta, they would not have the winter gas and electric bills, so they might save £200, then they will have their winter fuel payment, which won't need to be spent on fuel and electric that is another £200, so £400 so far, if they run a small car they wont be using it for 8 weeks to get to the shops etc, so lets say £20 a week for petrol, that is a saving of £160, so now we've got £560 in the kitty, as they are going away for the winter they decide not to go for a week in spain in july, so thats a saving of £600, now there is £1,160. Below are some deals for 28 days at hotels in Malta, which give you an idea, how going away for 4 to 8 weeks, avoiding the ice, darkness, and snow might not sound as lavish as it first seems.
