Man like Brian playing the airlines at their game and making big time savings and 4 nights in Singapore into the bargain. Great success. The flight prices have about halved in the last week, just got 5 days in Bali for $300 yesterday. All the Asian countries are cheap but the uk flight is still $1600 - LOL, no thanks Link to comment

Boca game could be difficult independently but there are tours that'll get you tickets and take you. We went to a River game (lost 0-1 to Cordoba) but had to go via an airbnb "tour". It was fine and the guy was spit on but it did mean it cost about £85/ea. It was a little dodgy as we had to use season tickets of other people, with photos on them and sneak through ID checks. One of the group didn't get in. Would imagine it'd be a similar setup at a Boca game. Buenos Aires as a city was brilliant though, I loved it. Pretty intense in that it was constantly mobbed everywhere, traffic & car horns constantly blaring (the drivers are mental) and always something happening on the pavement (vendors selling something on busy corners). It was great though. Cheap as fuck (google "blue dollar"), really sound folk (learn some very basic Spanish and clarify that you're not English 😂) and loads to see and do. Might be shite weather in May though as it'll be height of winter. Cheers. Aye, May wasn’t my pick, I wanted to wait until October maybe, but my mate has a big birthday this year & is tearing the arse out of it, so Apr-May was his only spare time really, as he’s got trips to Vegas, and The Far East planned for summer & autumn with his Mrs. My guess is him going away on two other holidays will mean finances makes Argentina becomes Italy or Portugal or the likes to cut expense.

Most likely to allow for future development of the area. 4 floors will just move somewhere else though, plenty of demand for that sort of thing here. Link to comment

If you find yourself pursued or treed by any wild animal just give me a quick DM on here and I'll guide you through the steps you'll need to take in order to come out of it (relatively) unscathed.

BrianFaePerth Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 My most memorable football playing moment was in Falkland. Eh played for my primary school. We lost 10-2. Not my fault as eh was only subbed in as a result of pity from the teacher with about two minutes to go. Come to think of it, that was the only game eh ever played. Link to comment
