Just got myself booked for 3 days/2 nights break mid December for £89 - flights n half board - heading to the 'hellhole' that is Benalmedena but totally worth it as I'm going for duty free fags and Xmas shopping.

Beats trudging round the high streets here or ordering online.

Would anyone like me to get them anything while I'm there?

Fruits, if it fits in my luggage pet, I'll do that for you.

Failing that - what if I just bring back on own little rays of sunshine - I'm happy to share them with you?

I've got that one sussed Arista - I'm not in my 70's so I reckon I'll be fit enough to cope.

Oh now I don't know..... the leather shoes and gorgeous handbags in particular make great gifts for the ladies - however for you, I could buy you a nice leather gimp mask if you'd like?

Hi, I'm 23 years old, I dont potter around on holidays looking at bags, i go and get completely trashed. Different Holidays for different generations.

And I didnt spend a good lot of my time on a forum while I was there.

Funnily enough Eoin - I think you'll find that when I was on holiday in Rhodes last month - there was not one post from me on here..... to the point that people were asking on the forum, where I was. You really should get your facts right before posting things that hold no substance.

And neither did I spend my holiday pottering around looking at handbags.

I will be pottering around however on this quick break before Xmas - which isn't quite what anyone would regard as a holiday.

Nah..... I know people swear by it but it's never appealed to me. A quick 2 hour flight will do me fine - plus, you can't bring back all the duty free cigs and baccy from the good old U S of A.

As for having a pop? Cop on. I dont track your holidays, I never said you did that all the time again you should stop trying to speak for people.

I don't need to speak for people when they manage to articulate themselves incredibly well...... for someone who doesn't 'track my holidays'... you appear to remember enough about them though.

Now.. back to the thread and back on topic Eoin- what would you like me to bring you back.... some bullfighting souveniers perhaps?

Clearly you didnt read what I said.

I wouldnt want to burden you with anything else to remember, must have loads wouldnt want you forgetting anything.

Oh I read it.... and I also did what we are told to do by the moderating team.... keep on topic, which is what I'm doing.

Superb, thanks for your consideration of my baggage allowance. Truth be told, I didn't really want to bring you back anything anyway: I was only being pleasant, being courteous to you and not wanting to make you feel left out.

You know they have late night shopping, lights and decorations in Spain don't you....... plus the cost of the old fags stuff is extortionate here....can't be losing on out the old duty free now.

then I can come back to the biting cold - crank the heating up, get the candles on and look forward to the big day.

superb.
