Just been to France, twice in 2 months. Will be going to Stuttgart again - can't think why this time around.

Thought this was about where people had been on holiday, this year.....

Some of these lists have to belong to retired folks.........

BBird, you buying a Merc now then??

beemerbird · 08-19-2008, 06:08 AM

chrisbin mate, we're back to the requirement of an eye test again

O/P = "As we're in the thick of the holiday season I thought it would be interesting to see where in the world everyone has been to or is planning to go to this year."

Now I read that as been to as in past tense. Buying a bloody Merc. geez. Can't say too much Steve A is rather sensitive you know.

Besides looking at the pic. of your lovely daughter, I would guesstimate that you're around my age matey - so knickers.

you too!!

But as you say, given the "holiday" bit in the posting it kind of implied leisure travel.....

Anyway, back to the holiday point...

We've been to Devon in February followed by our annual pilgrimage to Longboat Key (Florida) at Easter......and since then...a week in Norfolk....

Would love to be going away again (given the weather) but all our finds are going into our house extension...

Went to New York in January - fabulous time, one of my favourite places on earth.

Visited Rome last month, that also was incredible. So many stunning things to see.

Am feeling pretty burnt out now, so a nice two week break is on the horizon (but will wait for school holidays to end so I can get peace and quiet). Not sure where yet, but somewhere hot is on the cards.

May go over to mum and dads place in Marbella for New Years if nothing else exciting gets planned.
