I'm glad you like Portugal. It is a beautiful country with awesome food, especially fish and seafood (*sigh*). 30+ degrees in May? That's unlikely even in Italy.a_person wrote:

Re: Holiday Thread
No it's not 30+ there either which is why I'm sticking with Italy. I'll be walking around most of the time so I don't it to be 30+! If I have no intentions of walking, then yeh 30+ but if so, then something lower (as will be the weather in Italy).ucakpam wrote:

Re: Holiday Thread
Seeing as though you'll be going to universal you just have to go to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, even if your not a huge fan of the series that place is just AMAZING. The Forbidden Journey has to be the best ride I've ever been on. Butterbeer is delicious! They have some great sweets too, stay away from the chocolate frogs, the wizard cards you get with them are cool but they taste nasty. Oh god I sound like such a fangirl but seriously its great!rawr_xoxo wrote:Im off to Florida in April for 2 weeks :) then Ive got Download Festival in June andpossibly London in May :)

Yeah I'm going to Lagos with my Mum (I'm not one to miss out on a free holiday!a_person wrote:Thanks lt!lovesitx wrote: Thailand is AMAZING! Hope you have a great time.
This year so far I'm going to Portugal in May then I'm chaperoning my younger cousin and a couple of her friends on their first holiday without parentsI'm sure that'll be an experience for sure.
Oh Portugal is beautiful although it maybe abit chilly in May I hear. Where are you going? Algarve? I was thinking of going in May too (instead of Italy) but don't like the idea of not sunbathing (incase it's cold -- I like it 30+) so stuck with Italy instead.
Hey, aren't you about 19 yourself?!!! You need a chaperone too!!!! I'm sur eyou'll have a fab time. Where are you going with your counsin's friend? Not Ibizia I hope.
Yeah I'm 19 but I'll be 20 by the time we go, they're all only going to be 17 at the time so a couple of the parents were a bit cautious about letting them go alone but as they're teenage girls they wouldn't let the issue drop so my Auntie suggested that me and my best friend (who'll be 21) went along to look out for them and they seemed happy with that so we got roped in. They're still making their minds up, I'm hoping to god its not Ibiza, I think they're hoping for Greece if they can find a good deal.

Re: Holiday Thread
I just realise I better get a new passport before my Paris marathon as I now look nothing like my photo on it. I really dont fancy giving those security any reason to interrogate me. Theyve dont it a few times to me before when I've been on business trips loaded with computer equiptment in my luggage.
My film reviews here . ......My FMUK 2014 ratings.......My FMUK 2011 ratings.......My FMUK 2013 ratings . ......My FMUK 2012 ratings .
Do you have a VR headset? If so, maybe we can play a physical sports game or even be sports/fitness partners, hit me up if you keen.

Re: Holiday Thread
How long are you going to London forand what do you like doing? I love the city! Have you done a day trip to Dublin they are good fun; if you wait a couple of months for Ryanairs summer flights you can get the 8am plane there and return on the 9pm flight I've been about 10 times and its so easy from Manchester.butterfly wrote:i need a new passport full stop! before i can ven think of going aboard this year.
