Playa Blanca, Lanzarote in October. Always go abroad in October as me and the missus don't like the heat.

I'm flying out to join up with my private yacht out in Monte Carlo and going on a 2 week jaunt around the riviera. Then I am off to my apartment in Beverley Hills for another 2 weeks as the Mrs wants to do some shopping on Rodeo Drive.
































Am I b*llocks. 5 nights in Benidorm in August which I've managed to stretch into more or less 6 days thanks to the flights :D

Where was the hospital when you were last here? On a cobbled side street near the centre, because it's moved now? Was Castello's the restaurant opposite?
yes and I spoke to you in the bar that Jose ran but can't remember its name

I didn't get down today as I was busy, but I'm into town tomorrow. I've walked past it a couple of times this trip without really taking it in. I think it's still the same, but I'll confirm this tomorrow evening.

Did we chat in Lionheart, maybe 2012 or 2013? The bloke I talked to in there was from Rochdale.

Some of my friends down here go up to Benidorm for Christmas. Much livelier than down here, but they normally need a week to get over it.
They do shandies?

Yer each to their own really , but for me the one stand out thing about Titanic museum is that there was nothing from the titanic in the museum , not even a door knob.
Made me laugh out loud did that.

Bergamo is a good place for an easy cheap ryanair weekend. quieter than Milan itself but plenty of places to eat and drink and a good walk up to the old town.
Due to an Easyjet transfer fvckup (many years ago) I stayed in Bergamo for two days- it was the best part of the holiday.

Next month a two week trip with couple of days in Munich, a week in the Austrian Alps and then 5 days in Slovenia.

Love the mountains in the Summer and taking my young kids for the first time. Hopefully they love it as much.
