I was in Italy in January. Before that was Kyiv last February and I seemed to have stirred up a bit of a ruckus there :omgno:

Why so long LT, it's easier to go abroad than to half the places in the UK

I'm a homebody, only ever been abroad twice in my whole life. Spain aged 14 and Belgium on a booze run.

Florida at Christmas and New Year

Not really a beach holiday though …

It’s like going back in time .. completely pedestrianised so walking or donkey rides


The people there actually love us Brits which is kinda unusual..

No noise / traffic pollution
Family friendly so very relaxing.

Very few Brits ( about 5 to 10% ) which means no drunken brawls or parents screaming and swearing at their little brats .. virtually zero crime - we’ve never seen a police presence in the last 25 years.
In fact the last time we went we went past some bar tables near the beach and noticed someone had just left their their wallet and mobile and gone to the bar , can you imagine doing that in England ?

Beautiful, bustling town that really comes to life at night .. shops , stores , bars , restaurants.. two English pubs that see lovely British grub .. even a fabulous colosseum to visit ., https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...78436d73b6.jpg



Choice of three different looking beaches , all family friendly… one is in a massive horseshoe of rocks so no risk from tides / waves .


And so on …

Paradise as I said

I went Liverpool in October to spend the weekend with an Australian friend of mine for her birthday. It was the first time I was abroad since before Covid.

I've just spent the day at the Las Vegas Gun Store and fired all kinds of stuff including a .50 cal. I highly recommend it if you get the chance.
