So where's everyone going on holiday?

[honky cat]

Potters? Benidorm, Machu picchu

I chef in a tourist town so will only get away for 4 or 5 days max in the Summer. Probably alicante city or fuseta portugal. Bit of sun and bring a few nice bottles and delicacies home.

Puglia is lovely. Stayed a few years back in a villa near ostuni. Easy to drive to all local restaurants/beaches etc. some cracking seafood places along the coast

Airbnb caravan in Jaywick

Was thinking of returning to the States and maybe the pre season tournament but I'm not going to spend a cent there while that moron Trump is in charge 
Probably do West coast of Ireland instead...Galway,Mayo and Donegal as great driving countryside 

Be honest, you couldn’t afford to go anywhere nice so you’re driving round Ireland. You absolute tramp.

 

​​The funny thing is of all the holidays listed here, driving around Ireland for a week is probably the most expensive. The place is an absolute money racket. And then its pissing down most of the time. The last couple of weeks have been gorgeous, though. The drive - wild atlantic way - is worth doing but just avoid dublin. Its a shithole.

Second that - the atlantic way is nice, Galway area especially. Rains a shit ton tho

[oioi]

Gallipoli looks good. Stay in town or outside and get cabs in the evenings?

[goose]

Mrs oi fancies Puglia, I’ve got no idea where to stay. Anyone been? A sandy beach in the day and a bustling town in the evening would be just the job. Hot tips much appreciated.

are you flying into Bari or Brindisi?

I would say Gallipoli, Polignano a Mare or Otranto.

You could stay in Lecce and prob visit all of those, but Lecce isn't on the beach.

I've signed up to go on one of those Bezoz' "space flights" then I'll be able to call myself an astronaut.

Wife and kids are off to Nova Scotia to see wifes sister in August.  I can't join them, had a major operation and artery replaced in my leg this year and long-haul is not recommended until the blood flow is improved and I have an angioplasty booked for next week.

I may drive over to Normandy for a few days while the wife and kids are away or fly over to Albania again.

Did lots of hot last year. Apparently we're going on a boat to Patagonia etc where it sounds rather cold!

Will try to avoid a Top Gear type exit!

[goose]

He couldn’t afford the flights.
If we wants poverty he can drive around his local community in Upminster.

[Mad Ferret]

Yeah, he should drive around poverty-stricken Southern Italy instead!

Have done Dubai and Mijas so far, Benidorm with Grandkids at end of month, Ibiza next month, Australia for Ashes in December, and will probably do Ravello (Wife's home town) in September. 

Your wife is from Ravello?? Wow  
One of the most beautiful towns I’ve been to. My mate got married there.

Yes mate, it's where we want to retire too. 

[Russ of the BML]

Been Seville for long weekend a few weeks ago. 

Parga in Greece end of May with family. 

Marbella in August for holiday / wedding. 

Parga is on our list to visit, done lots of the islands but not the mainland, and Parga looks spot on.

Yes mate. The missus spotted it. We have done loads of islands. But when she showed me Pargas we loved the look of it. We originally was going Seville and then to Marbella but missus said it was a long time to wait for some good weather. We have only gone apartment with a pool and does breakfast only. We have told the kids its not going to be extravagant - No entertainment, no pool games, no games rooms etc etc. Little bit  more back to basics and bit more traditional. 

I will let you know what its like.

Already did Tunisia last month. Looking at Ibiza in July and somewhere else Sept/Oct.

Probably a city break at some point too.

[violator]

Back to Kassiopi for 10 nights in August, haven't been for about 5 years so long overdue, and a week in Corralejo for my birthday and new year. Might sneak a few days to palmanova for a gents trip in September.

See if there is a restaurant called Uncle Simmos still there. Went in 89 and was pretty good. if it's still going they must be doing something right. 

It certainly is mate, its Mrs V's favourite. They do a cracking seafood risotto, and its a lovely spot on the harbour.
