Ha ha! Paying for it's not my bag! Well paying directly that is, we all pay indirectly! ;-)

Too tall for me too!

Iggles, you are not in a position to be judgemental after your holiday with Boris and Vladimir

We all have our own vices. Let Millhouse have his

Sleep sleep and more sleep
Couch and food and then sleep again
would probably do a trip to on day 3 down to RAK or up to AD, when most of the riff raff is coming back, I hate the heaving crowd scene on public holidays

**** Bangkok, awful place.

I'd love to go to Honkers though. Gotta pay off the last holiday first.

Start saving Scampy. I only ever go through BKK now on the way to the islands.

Visited Hong Kong this summer for a few days and completely fell for the place. Hotels etc can be pricey, but the food at low cost outlets is not much more than Thailand but with great quality. If you spend a bit more, the upmarket restaurants are exceptional. Plenty to do and see, plus you can easily whizz over the border to mainland China and experience that as well.

That's all its ever been for me. Once spent 5 days there waiting for rabies meds to come in. Had a great couple of days on the sauce but cabin fever was well and truly entrenched by the time I managed to get away and down to Railey.

I will for sure. Is it close enough (the flight) for a 4-5 day break or is it a bit further than I'm imagining?
