Anyone any good shouts for places to visit in Milan other than the football? And does anyone know anything about Bergamo? Nice place? The Doumo is worth a look just watch out for the pickpockets(tourist central) Some nice bars n stuff down by the river aswell As for Bergamo i ve only passed it for the airport and its basically Prestwick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would recommend taking the time to go and see the Citta Alta. Either up the funicular railway or walking up the road on the north side if you can be arsed/it's a nice day. Not been in a few years now sadly but there used to be a coupla really crackin wee pubs hidden away up there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Middle of August. You'll melt. Your girlfriend might sweat a bit of weight off though. Students paying a hundred a night though, you don't know you're born. I'm enroute to ten nights on a Greek island for £250 including apartment and flights from Gatwick.

We aren't both students though.It will be an expansive holiday but worth it, went a bit cheap last year and it was a decent trip but nothing too spectacular so want to make the most of this one.

Fair enough, I go about 6 times a year so have to make them as cheap as possible, and I'm not a successful professional gambler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither am I, bit if I hadn't won big in March/Early April we definitely wouldn't be going there and the flights/half the accommodation are all paid for from winnings.

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 County are off to La Manga at the start of July, so I'm using that as an excuse to visit Spain for the first time. I'm weighing up whether to base myself in Alicante, Murcia or Cartagena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Was away for 10 weeks and covered Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Australia and New Zealand. That was amazing but expensive so no more proper holidays this year. Volunteering in Ireland for a week in August and might be going for a long weekend with some pals to a house on Skye. Anyone know a good area to base ourselves there with plenty of pubs and easy access to hills etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
