Heres a tricky question do you think there is more chance of sunshine everyday or me buying a drink for Ted to celabrate his birthday:spin::crazy:

I believe the answer to be that you will use the extremely bad weather conditions as an excuse not to go out, thus rendering you unable to buy Ted a drink........:laugh:

They must be doing something right in Tenerife as we have booked for April/May - August - and again for October....all Ryanair flights from Prestwick....but all silly 6:30 am flights, which means we don't lose a day of our holidays!:c2:

Singapore sounds like fun. The night races there are always a favourite to watch on TV.
Usually Monaco is one I'm less keen on watching being a street circuit, but hopefully being there in person will make it something special.

Yes we visited last year on way back from NZ and loved the place. Tickets for unlimited walkabout for the 3 days is only just over £200 each.
Only problem with Singapore is the humid days. Night racing be better.
Fancied Monaco too.

If you ever go to the Monaco Grand Prix, be prepared to mortgage your home for your expenses while there, a can of Coke on average is about €6 and a ice cream is about €15. One restaurant we went to it was €40 for a coke....needlessly to say someone else was paying for our meal and accommodation.

Just to stay on topic it was seven years ago and we flew to Nice, which wasn't a rip off.:D

Yes, we expect to be royally ripped off for anything we buy there. Fortunately we're staying outside the area so hopefully will get stuff there to take for each day.

We're going by coach and stop off in Nice for a night on the way there, and then somewhere else in the middle of France for a night on the way back, with 3 nights in a hotel over the weekend. £399 +£100 for entrance tickets/insurance for practice & race day which didn't seem too bad if you don't eat or drink for a few days! :convertible:

We did Singapore last year, loved it. Couldn't get in same hotel for Sept which is in the Marina Bay Area, wanted £300 a night. One we've settled on is only a 10 min walk from hotel to F1 circuit.
Dubai hotel got a really good deal on Late Luxury which is a sister company to Late Rooms.

He's on the mend but vet said it be 4/6 weeks before he'll be fighting fit again. Uncle comes to dog/cat and house sit and does a fab job but not sure want to leave him. Very weak and he's having to be fed light food every 3/4 hours, like having a baby in house.

A slice of warm Stornaway Black Pudding on a small bed of salad with a good salad dressing, topped with a poached egg...a classic easy starter to any meal. People who have said that they hate black pudding are surprised that they suddenly like it.

Definitely fried or grilled Clootie Dumpling with a fried breakfast.

I always freeze a black pudding to take to one of marbro8 's cousins on the El Mirador Complex and it's still frozen on arrival at the apartment, that will be in 65 Days Time..:)
