Every word is true, tonic for the quinine to combat malaria is how the British Empire thrived in Africa.
Meant to post this a while back. My sister had a big family event in South Cave, needed overnight stays for people. She booked a few glamping pods at Little Wold, halfway between the 2 Caves. I went to look and they were really good, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Worth keeping in mind if you're struggling fir accommodation in the area.
Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but I've just booked India for one of the Test matches in January. Always fascinated me because I can imagine it's so so alien to a westerner, and their love of cricket over there is an added bonus
Off to Rome in a couple of weeks Obviously like to get holiday body ready…so I’m in training by cooking pizzas in the garden and drinking Peroni. You can’t be too careful
Are you going with Barmy Army? I've just had their email myself, I keep going back to it, then looking at my pension pot, then at my wife...
Not with the BA but another cricket tour operator. One benefit of being young ish and single. Because I'm unlikely to be able to retire at a decent age, I want to see the world at this stage of my life instead!
I’ve been to India about 10 times, mainly for work but also for a colleagues wedding. Never liked it tbh. They advertise the worlds fastest internet speed but yet children still live in open sewers. Crazy place. I’ve been to Calcutta, Pune, Delhi & many other places. Calcutta was the only place I would go back to
Yeah I imagine it will be an eye opener certainly. Still, if you've been to Grimsby, nowhere is a shock
Definitely somewhere I need to go back. My wife (before I met her) was there in 2006 when Italy won the world cup (she watched the final in the Parco del Celio next to the Colosseum), she says it was amazing.
I only had an afternoon/evening there during a work visit to southern Italy. Managed to 'see' the major tourist spots in a quick 6 hour hike, so need to go back to see it properly.
We’re taking it fairly steady I think. Got tickets to Vatican one day, Colosseum another day, Weller gig another.
