Sorry have I got this right....they paid £1000 a night for a hotel room and it didn't include breakfast? 🤣 🤣🤣

Looks like it!! And I think it was more than £1000 a night. When I looked for this weekend it gave over 3500 euros but that still equates to over 1000 pounds.
What baffles me is this spend it all now, never think about tomorrow. Does she think this is going to be her reality in say 5 or 10 years?
I wasn't brought up with parents who gave us everything but we knew the value of things and how hard our dad worked so they could retire comfortably.
Mr Giggles and I both run our own small businesses and we're at a stage where we own our property and cars. We still go away a couple of times a year but money doesn't fall into our laps without hard work. And we certainly don't spend thousands of pounds a night on hotel rooms or hundreds on breakfast!!

I'm just looking. No, superior rooms are the one class that doesn't include breakfast. For next weekend, Friday to Sunday, it's £2,917.24 (which does include the park tickets, 3 days, 2 parks, which drives the price up a bit) and you can add breakfast for £41.66 per person per night, half board £115.73 or full board £208.32. I'd definitely be finding a cheap chain hotel in Paris and taking the RER.
 
No, most people probably haven’t stayed there because it’s far too expensive! Me and my husband both work full time jobs (actual proper jobs unlike these two pigs) and we still wouldn’t be able to afford it.

Here’s what I don’t understand… why wear dresses in theme parks?! All the Disney influencer crowd seem to do it… Brogs, Vicky No Detail, Brummy Mummy, Louise Pentland, Jen Lefforge.

I wear shorts/leggings and a tshirt/tank top/sweatshirt depending on the temperatures and weather. I never see anyone in dresses and skirts, only sporty skorts. You can buy these things in sizes from 2-30. Why dress for an office job or garden party when the rides might have grease on them and there’s melted ice cream and spills everywhere?! I just don’t understand who they think they’re impressing.

This further cements that Disneyworld is hell on earth and that anyone (including the instahuns) who willingly goes there is an utter lunatic.

Surely having breakfast that late limits time in the park! Rubbish advice. Most people would want to maximise the time there for such a short trip but not bogie. Its all about the food and naps there 🤦‍♀️

To be fair this can work really well. Hit the park at 0830 for Extra Magic Hours, get in shed loads of rides then once it's getting busier go off and have a leisurely brunch that'll see you through to dinner. But we all know Dumb and Dumber would have slept in, lumbered down to breakfast, took about a thousand crappy photos in the park, then had a massive lunch.

It doesn't need to be if you go in a quiet time of year but, yes, there are far nicer theme parks out there and also have the advantage of not having instahuns taking over.

And that's not including the Eurostar, which depending on how far in advance you book starts from £39 each way via Paris or £65 each way via Lille (often the outbound is quite expensive as everyone crams onto the earliest option available (11:04 Eurostar getting into Disney at 15:10) and gets booked up quick. Thanks to Brexit and pandemic and now no direct train, the indirect route has pretty much doubled!

And yeesh the freckles/moles on Benji's arms!

I thought they went Premier Class? Plus remember the cost of the TGV plus the additional cost of having to take another one as they missed the first one (although she'd admit she hated the rust bucket before she admits to this cock up).

If they went Standard Premier that starts at over £100 via Paris and lord knows what for the indirect route. Indirect costs include the price of the TGV. If they did miss the intended TGV at Brussels I would be interested to see how they cover that up in the vlog.

If I'd booked a pool view room overlooking that, I'd want my money back.

I could afford to if I really wanted to, but couldn't justify it in the slightest! The reality is, you go to DLP for a few days at a time, not a week or more like WDW. Sod paying that much for a hotel, only to be in the room to sleep. You go there, go hard for a couple of days, then go home!

Ps currently in Disneyland Paris for the first time! Have just checked into our room after spending all morning at the park to dump our bags and freshen up!
Although our budget didn’t stretch to the Disneyland Hotel - we have a lovely little apartment a 15 minute walk from the park which cost £200 for 3 nights. I think I know who the real winner is! 🤣🤣

I hate when these social media people add letters to words because it's never one that makes sense if you were to say the word.
