Btw, this came up on the radio a bit back and the researchers couldn't find any case where insurance didn't pay out. Not saying it won't happen at some point though.

Breightmet Boy Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Barbados is one friendly place, only been offered Chan once, and no because I’m with family and both my sisters would suss me out straight away. St Lawrence Gap is great, best place I’ve been. The Swimming Pool Man said to me earlier “You sunbathing later?” I said “yes,” He said “You need to use what I use, boot polish”. Definitely coming back here next year, save as houses, not seen a policeman and everything is safe around the pool. Anyhow, time for a Bankses. Couldn’t get the Wanderers game on, the WiFi is wank.

MancWanderer Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Cruise to the Far East next year for Mrs Manc’s 50th. Apologies to Traf here, I investigated options with him after she asked me to and then she went and booked it herself without telling me!! Anyway, Looking at a long weekend in Graslei and Korenlei (Ghent) in May/June. Best options for travel from Manc? Plane or train? Advice I’ve had so far is worse than Brexit. Appears that I’m a thick cunt if I favour one over the other depending on who I ask Traf - if you have/know of a decent package PM me mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then bus to Brussels. And train to Ghent/Bruges. Done this twice and easily manageable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lads' birthday is Xmas Day, so we'll probably go for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck me I get offered it everyday when I'm there, you must look sensible, first person I spoke to in Barbados was a street trader selling shitty pendants, he said 'Hi my name's Oliver, I'm a great feeling man, it's like a lucky lucky man but the stuff I sell makes you feel great' You've obviously not made it to Oistens Fish Fry yet, I got offered chan every 10 minutes when I was there.

Missed Cornwell, went watching Sham 69 on sunday though, they played the Alma in town. And have a flying fish sandwich from one of the huts on the Gap beach, they are ace.
