    I wanted to go to Italy in August for a few days. Never been and always wanted to go. I was thinking Tuscany. Not going myself though!

    Only in England so far. Mrs Obi keen to go away for a family holiday abroad. I'll have to plant another one of those money trees in the garden.

    Miami in June for the 2 England games, staying Tuesday to Sunday. New Orleans for 3 nights for my birthday in August (hired a Dodge Challenger to get there, looking forward to the drive as much as anything). Fancy New York in December but think it'll be another year

    Think the cuisine doesn't look too appealing, will have to try it when I'm there like. The music and nightlife looks brilliant. Staying on Bourbon Street so will be in the thick of it!

    Rimini is meant to be a very classy place.

    It's got it's not so classy areas too.

    We paid a visit to the local abattoir, not a place I'd want to see again.

    If anyone is going to TURKEY this year the visa rules have changed now.
    You need to go to:

    https://www.evisa.gov.tr/en/

    And basically pay 20 dollars for a digital one.
    They say it's to help tourist transit faster through airports but that's rubbish.
    It only ever takes 5 minutes to get a visa stamp and they've effectively put the price up by 40% too.... robbing so and so's.
