Will only have 2 full days in Florence. One of which I'm leaving open for a trip to Cinque Terre or elsewhere.
We found a class Mexicans that done cocktails for 4.50. They were unreal. Just one of them cities I enjoyed wandering about in.
Stayed in Florence last year and used as a base. Did Venice on the high speed train and had 11-5 there. Loved it
Just came back from there today- great city, €5,10 a 0.5l beer in the Hacker Pschorr Place next to the meat market in the centre, €7,40 for a glass of wine. Shit loads of Bayern and Shalke fans drinking in the town centre yesterday, and a canny few stopping at the hotel I was in. Canny few groups of blokes hanging around drinking beer together on street corners and although didn’t bother me, the average Daily Mail reader may have been a bit worried, but most Central Station areas in Germany are a bit raggy around the edges
Ended up booking Barca like. Early May bank holiday weekend. Stopping at Gran Hotel Calderon in Eixample. Can't wait.
Southend away that weekend man. I actually priced flights from Southend to Barca on the Sunday flying back into Newcastle on the Thursday. Cheaper than getting the train back.
Just gan to Italy, go to Montepulciano, get a B&B just outside a vineyard and put your feet up. Can't go wrong.
We'll have been confirmed playoffs by then. Disappointing. Will bring me radio so I can pick up BBC Newcastle Barca away at Celta vigo. Assume pubs would be busy for that.
Gdańsk Poland cheap flight from Newcastle airport direct. Hotels are also cheap even for 4-5 star ( we stay at Hotel Almond) it’s also a nice small city with loads of history. It looks old but it was re built after the war to look old! It’s so so cheap to eat and drink also. It’s the perfect escape I think it’s bloody cold in the winter tho but nice in the summer. Recommend from me
@Wilfy @Bob Fleming we watch every Sunderland game over here, and it's only 1 euro a beer. You're more than welcome to join us.
