Not spoken to you since you started your new school. I take it you're hating it?

Glenn. · 13-09-2011, 04:23 PM

Going to Turkey for a fortnight next July then Florida July 2013 and hopefully New York Christmastime 2013.

Chuck · 13-09-2011, 04:24 PM

I went to Rio a couple of times, but going to Rio isnt really a rare occasion in my life anyway.

Yea, unfortunately I am. Just really tough being a new kid who isn't hugely confident and outspoken.

The Greek Adonis types will be still at the 18-30's winding down and phoning their seasonal conquests. Trying to get invites to the UK. They understand about the Greek economy going down the pan.

Yes but Greek Homer and Moe only speak Greek so it looks like they will be laughing at you not with you.

The Greek army will be otherwise engaged fighting riots in Greek cities.

And now for the bad news ........

No joke: I visited Lipades about 20 years ago.... and that actually was the case. was out in the middle of nowhere and on a seriously steep hill.

We were rooked financially couldnt move hotel - ended up hiring a moped to escape (hotel still exists but is in the boonies) - old couple there in their 70's..... we felt guilty at leaving them after breakfast in this hell hole so my boyfriend at the time used to take the old man on the back of the moped, up to Paleaokastria (sp), drop him off - come back for the old woman - then come back a 3rd time for me. Then he'd have to do it all in reverse to get us back to the hotel.

(This was the same guy with the big beastie on his back...... !!!)

I will have the Adonis men to keep me warm.

The Adonis types can arrange their UK holidays all they wish: means I don't need to worry about them stalking me when I leave.

Homer and Mo are okay to laugh at me - for I shall laugh back, and they shall think I am 'touched'. As the Greeks placed those in that category as special and chosen by God....I will be reveered .

I am packing my Marine Flags - so will never be stuck for communications. I have dipped them in glo in the dark stuff so they can be used in the dark.

now...what was the bad news - ....that you will be stuck in freezing cold Scotland with the rain chucking it down.

Well my rents still live there and its half term so It works out better if we go see them than if they come here.

Kazakh · 13-09-2011, 04:35 PM

I am off to Iran soon but it is not really a "holiday" more of a voyage!

I know... I did it (rememeber!!) I was trying to throw a positive slant on it for you, that it's not 'too' long till you get to paradise and those fab beaches again, catch up with friends and swop stories on how life etc.

Ahh sorry didn't pick up on that.

But yea, it's the only thing keeping me going really. I seriously can't wait. And people have been facebooking me saying they genuinely miss me which is really nice to know and that you are wanted somewhere

And don't forget the food Pyra

After eating for a month and a half from somewhere people call the 'trough', I am dying for some real yummy food.

Chuck · 13-09-2011, 05:04 PM

is food in Singapore like the average Chinese food?

CharlieO · 13-09-2011, 05:06 PM

Its all types of food really because so many people come from abroad (25% of the population are immigrants). But 'local' food is like Malaysian/Chinese. But everywhere is pretty much really nice as food and health laws are so strict.

It's a good feeling, and it's great at the airport seeing all the expat kids mulling around - sneaky beers etc. even better on the plane ride back home - when you can get legless without having to walk into the arms of the parents.

You'll be a wee fat barrell on the way back home...... how much is the excess baggage per kilo? !!!

omgz Charlie I hadnt seen your post.

Oh yeah, I remember you saying there are 1.5 million immigrants there so i can imagine the food and restaurants being very diverse.

Dont worry about clothes and the like in your bags, just wear them all as you check in.
