“He likes loafing around and dislikes spending money.” Ha! This is me.
I compromise by agreeing on a “don’t ask, don’t tell” version of how much things cost where I sort of know but try not to think about the cost. Everything (tours, activities) being prebooked also helps with that. I enjoy the memories in retrospect but have some sticker shock and reluctance when I see the amounts.

I was a bit surprised by your “no real hikes” comment. The Sierra de Tramontana is one of the best destinations for hiking in the country. But only not recommended in July/August. Better in spring in my opinion.
The same regarding the getaway without children, you just have to avoid the south of the island. You’re not going to find many families in the East and the North or the Northwest.

Walllace Collection is a must see, but they are renovating the basement floor, so check before you go to see if the cafe is back up and running.

I love Fortnum and Mason products, but the afternoon tea there was underwhelming and expensive. Try The Savoy.

Italy. Lots to do for all, and I’ve never met a kid that didn’t like Italian food. And super kid friendly atmosphere.

I had this problem with Lash Boost. I started using it a few times a week instead of daily and it stopped.

Ooh, I know this one! Blue shop towel (like a fibrous paper towel) and either a waxing iron or a hair dryer. Goal is to use a combination of heat and gravity to melt the klister from above into the shop towel (below) while protecting your iron with another layer of towel between it and your clothing. Swap out your absorbing towel layer (the one below) as you go so it will continue to absorb what you melt.

Anything left and you can try goo-gone!
