Best Holiday You Have Ever Had

Featured Replies

Benidorm 89,I am not a bragger but I had a good time that year I'll tell you

Cuba, guadalavaca. Last minute bargain, beautiful sea was like an aquarium. Total relaxation for 2 weeks.

Ibiza 1998.

 

15 of us - one week of ultimate fun. Met Howard Marks and Fatboy Slim amongst others. Also kidnapped Mani out of the Stone Roses for a short while. Brilliant, brilliant holiday!

Tuscany 2009, honeymoon.

 

Stayed in a place overlooking Florence that had it's own vineyards and olive groves.

 

Unless I win the lottery, I'll never be able to go back.

 

But by fuck, the world can be a beautiful place. Shame it costs so much to experience it.

Sa Coma, Majorca - 2010.

 

First family holiday, loved every moment of it.

3 weeks in Thailand in 2007

The next one.

That's the spirit, look forwards not back...

 

I don't think any holiday would beat the ones you have as a kid, surely? I've enjoyed almost all my escapades down the years as an adult, but I've never been constantly fiddling with my widgy the night before, such was my excitement. :)

Honeymoon I've just had - San Francisco, Seattle & Hawaii

 

For drunken debauchery with the lads though, Faliraki 1995 was pretty damn decent even if we were staying in something resembling a shed

Faliraki 95....were you with a load of Blackburn lads?

Yes - that was me, Johnny B Goods bar - Quality!!!

Valentines weekend in Barcelona. Couldn't have been happier.

You became a bit of a minor celeb with the locals with your pissed up antics...

Two weeks in Skiathos, went over for the Greece v England game 2002 WC Qualifier with a few mates, why I've not returned I'll never know, proper good chilled out holiday with football in the middle :)

Vegas 2014, 16 of us, unbelievable time :-)

 

Magaluf 2007 was decent to

Cuba 2013 or Las Vegas 2011 or Orlando/Disney 2012. All exceptional in there own way and all very different.

One I have just come back from was a bit immense though.

 

Treated like a king for 2 weeks, and all for Majorca 3* prices.

Honeymoon in Jamaica.

 

Stayed at the Bahia Principe. Complete fucking paradise.

 

Dont count clubbing trips to Ibiza has holidays by the way. :-)

Honeymoon - Vegas, LA & other coast stops up to San Fransisco and then Maui

 

Thailand this year was my 2nd fave with Missus J

 

Lads wise hard to pick, but my mate's stag do in Vegas 4 or 5 years ago takes some beating....all the lads holidays from 95 to the mid 2000's all blur into one and were all brilliant

Ibizia 98 my first visit, in the Needin u video

 

Honeymoon

 

NYC, Hawaii, Los Angeles, Vegas

Enjoyed them all. But benidorm 99 was the one.

Turkey this year. The complete absence of British people was a real bonus too.

2 weeks in the Maldives last year.

 

Absolutely beautiful place with superb service. We were totally relaxed and could quite happily have lived there.

 

Without the missus was a one of the many trips to Vegas including the confession that Simon Mayo read out on Radio 2 show.

In 2008 when I was pulling in the big bucks I took my family and two hard up sisters and partners to Florida for weeks.  One week in Orlando and Tampa followed by a week on North Captiva Island in a storey house with pool  then one week in a 8 bed mansion in the South Seas Resort on Sanibel island.

 

However, lastyear having had 4 years of no income and no holidays, we splashed out for 1 weeks holiday in a 3* all inclusive in Egypt for just me and the missus. Guess which I enjoyed the most?

I don't think ive had a really bad holiday apart from when I was pretty young with my mum and dad. Remember hating a few of them but not sure where they were :lol:.

 

Hard to pick my best but the week in Sunny beach for the Uefa game will take some beating.
