After waking up after the 21st that cost me AUD$330.00 to attend (not including the present) I have been flat out working and not able to scratch myself.
10 days of the financial year left and every bastard is ringing to get new IT equipment purchased and things sorted out.
Good to be busy, but wish it wasn't a feast/famine sort of thing.

Not for me - for you (as in anyone who reads this). As in "Eat your heart out":
Why? By this time, tomorrow, I'll be awaiting takeoff for Here^. Eight crazy nights ahead of me and she.
Consider: after browsing the site so as to further nurture your rage, consider that tipping is strictly forbidden - even at the bars and restaurants. I need not carry money in my pocket the entire time. Now that's a vacation.
Irie I !

Sounds good - but I'd start to go spare after a few days...and come back quite a few Kg heavier...

Well, you paid for it, disproving that old saw "you can't take it with you".*
* All inclusive includes weight gain. Don't worry - it helps you keep float.

Meh, I prefer the slight annoyance of having to sometimes prepare food over over not having any control. We'll only have three weeks this year, but there are maybe 100 eating places within a 10 minute walk of the house.
I bet my $0 plus food and drink works out cheaper too.

Foraging for you food and entertainment would, indeed, work out cheaper - unless, of course, you factor in the value of the time used to get it. Not nearly so big a bargain.
They've five restaurants on site (included) that are all much fancier than anything I'd be willing to pay for directly - and open bars - and food available all the time in many handy locations. Even the buffets are great - and typically include food prepared on-the-spot, to your taste (hardly counts as a buffet in some respects).
But the real clincher: you've "ONLY" three week - I have 13 workdays/year, and that would include any personal needs. Reality is that 9 days (eight nights) exhausts the non-committed time pretty throroughly: time off is more precious to me.

Our normal summer is 5-6 weeks, but both Mrs Wife and I have work that allows for this. This year it is curtailed as she can't get away until a week later than normal and then we're moving to her new job at the end of August; a week's drive including stops to visit a few new places.

So I need a bit of a hint for technology choice: I want to implement a web page where people must have an account, and can from time to time post data to subscribe to events. The account is for them to be able to see what they have subscribed to and to not have to enter their personal data (Name, phone number, mail and so on). On the back end, I would need to be able to retrieve data (for post-procesing), create some lists, and send mails. Saved data is not highly confidential.
What language should I go for ? Is there any framework I could use for that ?

There are two main options to start with as your first web venture...
A[^] and B[^]
If you have any background in the .NET word a MVC solution can be a very quick option...
If you more for the open platform, you should check some LAMP solution...
And there is a wide mine-field between (and around) the two...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I've already experience with LAMP, but not with managing users and passwords and so on. Thought there could be maybe some CMS where I would have the possibility to not rewrite the whole user management from scratch, AND have access to the database for my own purposes. From what I have seen, there is either the closed CMS (no direct access to the database) or the full open one, but nothing inbetween.
.Net MVC is new to me, I am an old(!) C++ guy. GUI is still linked with MFC
