Benedict Smythe - The Risen Christ on an Easter Monday By : Benedict Smythe Easter Sunday, as a religious celebration, is the day that Jesus rose from the dead after 3 days of death. The Catholic Church holds a special mass during Easter Sunday, and so does the Christian Church. In more traditional scenarios, merry-making and having fun between Maundy Thursday up until before Easter Sunday is not allowed, and so most celebrations (e.g. dinner with friends and family) happen on Easter Sunday itself, when the Lord has risen.

Benedict Smythe - St. Patrick’s Day is Not Just About Being Green By : Benedict Smythe Pop culture generally designates St. Patrick’s Day as a UK holiday where people wear green, go to parades and get drunk. Although it’s a great way to celebrate all things Irish (they really do have high tolerances for alcohol, however), it must be said that one should be able to move past the pints and lagers. St. Patrick’s Day really is a celebration of the Irish culture as a whole. Benedict Smythe - Boxing Day: The Grand Commonwealth Tradition By : Benedict Smythe One of these seemingly mysterious holidays is known as Boxing Day, also known as St. Stephen’s Day.

Here, you’d also get to experience the stoic guards at Buckingham Palace that won’t seem to move no matter what you do (as long as you don’t touch them). Benedict Smythe - Why It's Better to Start Your UK Holiday in England By : Benedict Smythe No trip to England can be complete without a visit to its capital, London. There are countless things to see and mostly are marvels of architecture. One of the landmarks that people often associate with London is the Clock Tower.

But what is the history behind Edinburgh airport, how has it managed to assert a position of primacy over the other airports in Scotland? Donald Donaldson - The Interesting History and Development of Manchester Airport By : Donald Donaldson Manchester Airport is considered by many to be the primary Airport in the north of England. With Birmingham it is one of the two major airports that are not linked to London. As a major air destination it contains all of the hallmarks of the modern airport including car hire desks, shops and restaurants. It is similar to London's Heathrow in the respect that it has two operational runways, a fact that puts Manchester ahead of both Gatwick and Stansted. Additionally Manchester Airport has its own link to the national rail network and also has extensive road links meaning that if travelling by bus, hire car or train access is a breeze. Donald Donaldson - Flying Into Stansted Airport? Use a Hire Car to Tour the Surrounding Area By : Donald Donaldson Stansted Airport is referred to as London Stansted in many pieces of literature; however this is somewhat of a misnomer, whilst it may only be an hour from London the airport sits in the quaint and beautiful district of Uttlesford. This stunning region is the perfect excuse to hire a car and explore rather than jump straight onto the M11 motorway. With a wealth of succinctly English towns and villages within a short drive of Stansted the tourist is given an impression of life in the countryside. Subsequently car hire services at the airport are not purely there for the onward journey, they are a way to see one of the most amazing regions in the entire country.

By : Martin Gavin Tips on buying investment properties abroad often tend toward the well trodden path, but Sterling’s current relationship to the Euro means that the appeal of, for example, Spanish or French property is not what it was. So, without the nearby sunshine and perceived security of Spain and France as an option, many would-be UK property investors have to ask themselves; just where can I buy property abroad? Martin Gavin - North Cyprus Property Market And Cyprus Reunifican Remain Entwined By : Martin Gavin Under the five year incumbent Tassos Papadopoulos attitudes toward reunification of the island were far less sunny.

If you only play a handful of courses on your golf holiday in South Africa, make sure this is one of them. As well as being an entertaining and challenging course in its own right, what is really unique about Leopard Creek is its location: right on the border of the world-renowned Kruger National Park. The course (a Gary Player design) is sculpted to make the most of its location, and you shouldn’t be surprised to see a number of moving hazards around the water features, as warthogs, giraffes and crocodiles have been known to wander the course, and the trees are full of exotic birds too.

Check through any travel memberships that you have or look on the internet for discounted tickets. You can find deals for buying one or two tickets and getting one or two for free. Even Disneyland offers a savings for buying you ticket in advance. Nemanja Kuzmanovic - How to Find Cheap Flights to Europe By : Nemanja Kuzmanovic First of all if the time of year is not important to you, try and pick a time that is more off season. You will find flights to Europe much cheaper during the winter months than you will during the summer. If you are concerned about sight seeing during this time don't.
