Re: Holidays
Got back from Singapore this morning, jet lagged to f*** but what a country. Food the best I've had, people great, scenery amazing, plenty to do, easy to get around, orderly but still a bit weird. Only downside is the 14 hour flight, wish it was f***ing closer.
Aiming to go back next couple of years. Would recommend to anyone.

I'm heading back out there in December for a few weeks. Went 18 months ago and loved it.Blue & Maroon wrote: ↑Fri Oct 05, 2018 6:18 pmGot back from Singapore this morning, jet lagged to **** but what a country.

Singapore is great. My brother used to live there so I've been four times, nice and cheap as I could stay with him. Haven't been back since he moved back to the UK though.

Nice!

Re: Holidays
Mexico is always a good option for a nice spent holiday. I haven't yet been there but wish to go to Mexic one day. Also, the price you have mentioned includes how many days/meals?I Sit Next To A Badger - Leazes Corner wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2012 8:35 pmMexico. Booked up for June, cost me £1700. Can't wait for my tire

Re: Holidays
You should go to New Orleans. Best food in the world and very different from anywhere else.

Re: Holidays
Six working days left before I finish for the year and head off!
Can't wait for a long spell off as this year has ground me down and utterly worn me out so the impetus of a book day on a beach, supping ice cold beers and relaxing is solely keeping me going.

Booked a trip to Menton for mid March as a Xmas present for my father-in-law.
Looking at getting tickets to watch Nice play Toulouse as well.

Booked Malta for 5 nights in June. Can't wait to be back, great food, great people, cheap beer and Valletta is the most beautiful city
Re: Holidays
I'm currently out in Ivrea, Italy for the Carnevale and it's f***ing mental. Took part in the battle of the oranges, was absolute chaos
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

Re: Holidays
Loved the trip to Menton, Monaco and Nice.
It's been 23 years since I was last in Menton (eurorailling) and it was still awesome.
Food was amazing as it's a mix of French and Italian cuisine, wine was great and the locals are still awesome.
I did fear going back to Menton that the place would be full of rich assholes given its location but it hasn't.
I highly recommend.
