Need to watch out for them.

We don’t honestly know how things are going to develop.. hopefully things quieten down but who knows.

If it was possible I’d have stayed there for a week or so - play the percentages

I only live 15 mins outside Manchester city centre where it was kicking off....Nice and peaceful as normal on a Sunday.

To be fair, there have been demonstrations for months in Manchester every Saturday and trouble every week, but it's not been reported till now. It's nothing massively out of the ordinary lol.....particularly in Picadilly Gardens where the trouble started yesterday....it kicks off there for fun every day :laugh:

Going to Texas soon to see the in-laws. Looking forward to that.

It is an incredible city
My parents loved it and I was there with them when I was a child.

Going back now and I went last year too.
I'm glad you enjoyed your honeymoon there, it's actually a perfect setting for one really.

I got to travel more around Italy this time too.
Anyhow, I'm already planning returning again next year.

Hope you have a great time in Texas Livia .
All my best to you.

I worked for a while down in the heel of Italy (Lecce) and I've skied up in the north (Turin area) but I'd really love to see much more of the country.

Thanks, Joey, my best back to you.

Did you get a train there from Germany or Switzerland?
