I was last there in 2010 and loads of EU money was going into roads and infrastructure projects. Canny are the Irish. Very good at maintaining their unique culture and identity, but also very progressive and outward looking
Yeah I mean it was a sweeping statement, and of course there are issues with immigration across Europe. But more as a general observation about the Irish government approach over the years has been very outward looking towards Europe and indeed the US
I'm sick probably COVID caught on an air conditioned plane. Lucky it was last day of the holiday that I started feeling ****.
It’s probably because the hotel didn’t boil sausages or keep the salt in the fridge mate. Played havoc with your constitution!
Off on a well travelled route through France on Thursday. Down to Biarritz via the Alantic west coast, then back home from Bilbao. Fair to say, looking forward to it.
My lads mate was over doing the clubbing thing, 17euro for a bottle of bud. Said he could only afford to go out 3 nights of the 7 he was there.
Yeah,I would imagine so mate. They just rip the piss out these kids and they're mostly having a good time so just go for it.
Quite a few of the youngsters stayed where we were and enjoyed the beaches and cheaper food and drinks then went to the club by taxi. ****ers were noisy coming in but that didn't bother me much.
The prices were shocking about 15 years ago. Think I was paying 60-80 euros just to get into the clubs. Most people were buying cans from the off licence and sitting on the beach drinking before going to the clubs so they only had to buy a couple drinks in the clubs.
I went into San Antonio when I stayed in the North and the taxi was expensive. Over a 100 euro, can’t remember how much exactly. It ain’t cheap. I could go to Jamaica for a fortnight and it would be way cheaper than going to Ibiza for a week.
I paid 50 euros from airport to Portinax. It's only once your in the clubbing area that it seems to go nuts.
Much nicer than Mallorca and the Spanish were friendly. I wasn't looking forward to it after Mallorca last year but it was really good.
