Just booked 5 nights in Marseille. Strangely I’ve never been to France. I’m very much looking forward to it…need a break!
Spend a fair amount of time over that way. Skegness is dreadful as are most neighbouring places, but just the other side of the wash into Norfolk is beautiful on that north east coast (anywhere between Heacham and Wells next to the sea)Not as exotic as the rest of you but we are in Lincolnshire for the week. Yesterday we had the pleasure of Skegness which my son commented could supply non stop contestants for the Undateables! We were treated to a 30 minute display by we think a Spitfire! Going to the Lancaster museum in Spilsby & Battle of Britain museum at RAF Coningsby today. Was hoping to go to RAF Cranwell where my dad was stationed but it is closed for next 3 days & we are heading back to Scotland on Friday.
Lincoln itself is well worth going to if you have the time.Not as exotic as the rest of you but we are in Lincolnshire for the week.

We're going to Lincoln tomorrow.Lincoln itself is well worth going to if you have the time.
We took in a game at Sincil Bank while we were there. Not a bad little groundWe're going to Lincoln tomorrow.
Enjoy Steep Hill!We're going to Lincoln tomorrow.
Soooo…the woman from the Airbnb has told us 12am is too late for us to be let into her flat. Hmmmmm.Just booked 5 nights in Marseille. Strangely I’ve never been to France. I’m very much looking forward to it…need a break!
If you go to Lisbon then I would definitely recommend getting the train down the road to Sintra and spend a day there visiting the castle and the town, really nice.Going Albufuera for a stag weekend and thinking of extending it for a few days by taking a bus to Lisbon. Does anybody have any ideas on where to stay and what to do there?
Loads of great beaches to the south of Albufeira, Felisia the massive one but the little ones are great tooIf you go to Lisbon then I would definitely recommend getting the train down the road to Sintra and spend a day there visiting the castle and the town, really nice.
also, for your recovery after Albufeira there are some cracking beaches a few miles away.
You could watch Gyok in a game
we went as a group so had an Airbnb near the centre, there are lots of options, it’s an easily walkable place
Yeah it’s not needed.After a lot of complaining they're sites the name by 3 characters
However I haven't put middle names down and they said they cannot add that
Can you still fly international without middle names?
Went down to Southwold Wednesday for a night with family. Lovely beach and town there.
Yeah pier is nice, not tacky at all. Was really pleasantly surprised.Yes it’s a nice town with a modern pier I think?
Sounds like the French answer to NaplesBeen in Marseille for about 2 hours. This is the first time I’ve been to France.
There are A LOT of rats running around the place, more or less outside our apartment; the streets smell of piss, the taxi driver from the airport nearly killed us, and the few French people I’ve interacted with have been very aloof…smoking fags and lacking in any discernible facial expressions…I love it!
The only downside is the Scottish and Irish Rugby fans milling about the place absolutely wrecked…”enough of this French shit”.
I care not for your sport or your attitude.
This was exactly what I envisaged/hoped for.Sounds like the French answer to Naples
I have a house in Tallinn.Further along the coast is Tallinn which is fairly similar unless you have an Estonian ex
As you’re relatively ‘nearby’, I’d suggest going to Aruba for a week.Currently in Miami. Have a two week work trip, but now I am thinking after this is done to just stay and travel the country more, or even visit central America. Looks like a holiday may have turned into an exodus!
I knew there was a big Hispanic influence here, but pretty much every interaction I have had has been in Spanish. Hotels, uber, bars, haircut. Can't see myself coming back to Europe any time soon. Feels so liberating to travel properly after the pandemic. I guess I'm also now a digital nomad. Life is so weird.
Yes. Avoid Washington (unless you mean the State).Any tips or ideas out of the mainstream for Washington, Nashville and then NYC
If you ever get down there again the Heritage aviation museum is a brilliant day out - also the view cafe in between Skeggy and Butlins is a belter - it saved our lives over a weekend in Butlitz- also a great beach walk to find the tank in the sandNot as exotic as the rest of you but we are in Lincolnshire for the week.

If the heritage museum is at East Kirkby then that is what I meant by the Lancaster museum. We went there and it was brilliant & truly inspirational. I spoke to a guy there who was part of a team hand building the section that cockpit is part of as the 1 in their Lancaster is on loan from another museum.If you ever get down there again the Heritage aviation museum is a brilliant day out - also the view cafe in between Skeggy and Butlins is a belter - it saved our lives over a weekend in Butlitz- also a great beach walk to find the tank in the sand
I’m quite surprised, I thought you would be on an all expenses two week break to LutonThis time next week I’ll be on a two week cruise around the Canary Islands! Can’t fooking wait

The View is pretty decent. It's an ex Coastguard lookout iirc, and one of the very few places that make that cesspit bearable.If you ever get down there again the Heritage aviation museum is a brilliant day out - also the view cafe in between Skeggy and Butlins is a belter - it saved our lives over a weekend in Butlitz- also a great beach walk to find the tank in the sand
Always wanted to do a cruise and we’ve talked about it for ages but don’t know the first thing about them. Is this your first one?This time next week I’ll be on a two week cruise around the Canary Islands! Can’t fooking wait
