Do you have any plans for the bank holiday weekend? 

I know that money is tight for many of us at the moment, so please do share your ideas on cheap or free activities your friends on the community could try!

I'm going to York to visit some family, and we're planning on walking the York Walls I think :)

    I love York, it’s a beautiful historical city. I used to know lots of free things to do when my children were young. 
    Museums are great places to visit and there’s lot of cheap bus passes etc. The weather is nice so picnics are always a good day out. 
    This weekend we’re probably going to spend time with family just hanging out. 
    We’re going away next week with the dogs, West Cumbria, in a cottage by the beach.

    That sounds nice @Teddybear12 :) I hope it helps you to take your mind off of things a bit!

    Me too @Karen7788 :) York is really pretty.

    I love going to museums, especially when they're free! Picnics are another great choice. Making your own tasty treats can work out reasonably cheaply, too.

    Have a lovely time in the holiday cottage! That sounds blissful. Do your dogs like the beach?

    Have a nice time @Tori_Scope, it should be lovely.

    personally I’ll be trying to work out how to pay my bills this coming year. 😏

    Indeed @leeCal. My rent is going up from September, so I'm going to rework my budget a bit.

    York is beautiful, had a nice weekend there a few years ago.

    It's okay @leeCal. It's still a decent deal, as I live in a shared house and my energy bills and council tax are included in my rent (thanking my past self!). Thank you though :) I think we're all going to be adjusting our budgets!

    I hope you have a nice time @Charlie1973 :)

    Hi @Tori_Scope,
    Yes, the dogs love the beach, it’s their favourite place. It’s a proper get away from all the hassle holiday, the back garden leads to the beach and it’s normally quite deserted. 
    It’s quite a cheap holiday too, there’s some beautiful places in this country to visit.

    That’s lovely @woodbine, I bet you’ve been missing them. Have a fantastic time.

    I'll be visiting friends for a Sunday barbeque this weekend, as the weather looks nice, and might see if I can make something to take along for everyone to eat!
