Holidays 2018

[Quagmire]

Would also recommend the walking tours, we were taking for free by some English speaking students and you just tip them what you think its worth at the end. Think it lasted a few hours if i remember right.

Wife was pregnant at the time so didn't advanture to far.

Just a wee prod?

[The Boofon]

 

Truth be told, it's not actually too bad a shout.

 

I quite enjoy Inverness.

Get cracking deals at Kingsmills every now and again. Worth looking out for.

If you only had time to visit one place in Berlin, where would you go? I've got one day there - more like half a day really - so not a lot of time to do anything. Would have liked to have arrived a day or two earlier but can't due to work.

 

The next day I'm heading to Budapest for the Scotland game. I usually don't bother with friendlies, but Budapest is one place I've wanted to visit for a while and with all the stadium chat about the Groupama Arena I'm keen to visit it, and it'll be the only Scotland game I go to this year as even the home ones don't interest me. Got two days there.

 

Flying back through Pisa, again only there for a day. Not arsed about seeing the leaning tower.

Siegessäule.

Done a walking tour in Zagreb, that was fantastic, that's also another quality place.

Been invited on to a stagger in July, not made my mind up yet as I've been to the location before.

You sound like a top mate, mini min.

[Henry]

^^

 

Bluto giving it large about a stag do

 

[Bluto10]

aye, I know what I’m talking about.

 

You on the other hand still live at home.

[Henry]

Hopefully @@redmadkebab could fill us in on some of the wild stories from your stag do min.

I'm not working right now so I need to be careful with what I do, got to earn these trips, I'm probably 70/30 in favour of going, fine to get oot the hoose y'know.

[DelMonte]

Hoping to get over to Gdansk again this year. Flight times are a bit shite from Aberdeen though.

[Bluto10]

Just pullin yer leg mini min

[Panda]

 

Or Krakow... want to do the touristy shit if go there however, whereas Barcelona would be boozing.

 

Nice, easy cheap city break that winna break the bank. Any advice?

Lisbon.

 

For a major city it's fairly cheap as long as you stay away from the main strip, weather will likely be decent, decent food and drink, plenty to do. Benfica's stadium is class too, the stadium tour and museum well worth doing. Sporting's isn't bad but isn't anywhere near as good.

[Panda]

Depends what you're in to?

 

Politics? If you can book a tour of the Bundestag then I'd recommend that.

Art? A wander down the east side gallery is great.

History? Topography of terror is a great history of the rise of facism in Germany. The DDR museum is a decent wander through life in the DDR.

Museums? Pick your faves on museum island.

The outdoors? Loads to see in the Tiergarten.

Beer Halle? I'll let someone else advise there.

There's always a boat cruise down the Spree if the weather is nice, which can be combined with (overpriced) beers.

Cheers. Aye the topography of terror or the DDR museum both look good, I'll likely pick between the two of them.

Should pick up a few propaganda tips to help with a promotion too. Win - win.

[Dom Sullivan]

Ooooft. It’s just a fistin that Westhill Dom likes.

Lol

 

So long as I'm the giver and nae the receiver.

I went there a few years ago and we stopped at a small place for a coffee for the wife and I had a beer, 2 Euros for both.

Lisbon and Berlin are the 2 cheapest capital cities I've been to.
