Maybe I've just been caught out a lot!
Having said that, bottled water is not my default beverage.
Blame only fools and horses, it's shown worldwide.
I’ve had Nepalese work for me, hard workers, nice people, but absolutely no ****ing sense of humour what-so-ever
My top 4 destinations I’d like to go to are:
Japan
Argentina/South America in general
Istanbul
Marrakech
Europe wise, I love northern Mallorca and I went to Budapest, but due to travel problems (Danube drying up), we barely had any time there, so would like to go back.
Where I would recommend:
Vancouver/Vancouver Island
Jasper, Alberta
Alėsund, Norway, wow, just wow, especially if you fly to Oslo then drive up, it’s something else
Seattle - Raw like Glasgow, but on an even bigger scale
Salzburg
Lübeck, my Mum’s home town just north of Hamburg, incredible architecture, beautiful place, even better at Christmas
Where I wouldn’t go back to in a hurry:
Barcelona - didn’t enjoy that all
Vienna - didn’t enjoy Vienna either
Japan
Argentina/South America in general
Istanbul

I worked with an Indian colleague for many years and he said about visiting India, if your there for a short time don't eat the street food, it will make you ill. He stayed with family or ate in hotels and was usually fine. If he was visiting for a month, he would eat street food, get ill, get over it and be fine for the rest of his visit, eating wherever he liked, but he was born there and only came to UK aged 11. Incidentally, when his daughter first visited India (aged10) she couldn't/didn't eat spicy food so they had to take loads of tins of Heinz beans with pork sausages for her to eat. She eats spicy food now.
Someone wrote that there's 4 types of countries.. those that work, those that don't work and Japan and Argentina - Japan, where things work and no one understands why, and Argentina, where things dont work and no one understands why.
Haven't ever been to Japan. Been to north east Argentina two month ago with my new-ish missus as she's from Uruguay originally. Immense country. Could see myself living there when I retire... Sun, women, amazing nature, sea, food, politically unstable, a surprisingly large number of transexuals out and about in the evenings - all the things necessary for a pensioner.
Everyone should visit Japan at least once, it's visiting another planet (at least Tokyo is).
Planning on going for 3 weeks next year
Timing it round a relatives wedding.
Looking forward to it even though I know it’ll take some planning to eat plant based outside Tokyo.

**** me it’s warm today up this mountain, the view of competa was amazing this morning. As we drove around the last corner before you see the village, my god the clouds covering the top of a long line of them was just biblical. Unfortunately if you try and stop to take a photo you put your life in your hands, they drive like ****ing Italians on acid.
Spent a day in torrox, breakfast at Lou’s, full English of course, the a walk along the promenade, Jesus it was windy. Some shopping then lunch at Mambo’s, just a fantastic place for both fish and meat, surf and turf if taken together but today Norm had a wonderful chicken pasta in white wine with some ( actually a lot ) local bread. They do a multi seed one here that could literally eat as a meal…. Feeling really bad for those back in Blighty, weather sounds horrendous, not looking forward to home on the 29th, will just have to make the most of it until then….

I just had last weekend in Dublin...cant believe what a great place that is!! And its on our door step sort of!!!..under an hour from lba too!!!
It's a bit of a dump and it's not easy to get to, Doncaster/Sheffield was in a different league, hopefully it will be reopened soon.
I spent 2 years living / working in Dublin on a project for FB, I loved the place, best looking women in the world !!
