Off Topic Holidays

[Sir Cheshire Ben]

It's been four years since I last went abroad, which has been a bit weird, as I've spent spent over thirty years being out of the country for a couple of months a year.

After I was very ill early last year, my missus convinced herself that if we went on holiday she'd wake up and find me dead (a bit dramatic, but it's what happened to her sister).

Anyway, she's finally relented and we're off to Greece in June.

She's not yet realised that's where her sister went.

We’re off on Tuesday, I’ll try not to drink all the alcohol free beer [HASHTAG]#mental[/HASHTAG]

We're away to Tenerife on Tuesday.

A meditation and mindfulness yoga retreat for the ritual cleansing of the body and the mind.






At least that's what I've told the Missus I've booked. Hopefully after her first G+T she'll have forgotten that.

read an article about oman, it's meant to be a very good place for a holiday and not very known
with apparently great food

About £13.50 for a bottle of Heineken and around £80 for a bottle of Wolf Blass Chardonnay in the hotel we stayed in.

I take it you didn’t overdo it then?

I was being flippant in my reply Chaz. We were staying in a very fancy hotel, to celebrate my 50th birthday and our wedding anniversary, so we knew what the prices were going to be like.

No that’s fine
Just wondered what the appeal is going there. Never heard of anyone going there
