INNOCULATIONS - Remember if you are travelling outside of the European Union contact your doctor who will advise you what inoculations you will require and make sure that you have those inoculations in good time before your holiday commences.

Take a good first aid kit with you, this should include medicines for diarrhoea and travel sickness, antiseptic cream, plasters, indigestion tablets and obviously if you are on medication a good supply of the medication prescribed by your doctor.

Remember the sun is very strong and you should take with you a high factor protection sunscreen. Never let children play in the sun without protection.

You must not fly if you have recently undergone chest or abdominal surgery because any air trapped in a body cavity will expand causing pain or damage to tissues.
