  • SRM - I'm thinking DFW meet in Dubai? Now that's a plan.

    If it happens I'm not moving out until after I've taken my exam.

    If only I had another job... Maybe I can run away somewhere :rotfl:

    That's my favoured option. First Newcastle and then behind a bar in Paisley.

    SRM - Well done. I haven't done any running for 3 weeks due to eye. Was supposed to start again Saturday but I'm having trouble co-ordinating with my tides (don't want wet feet!)

    But you don't have to go abroad to have a holiday... There are some beautiful places in the UK that are worth a visit;)

    Very good point, Lucifa! We are planning some “stay-cations” this summer as well. This Sunday we are going on a day trip for a walk by the sea (down to Seven Sisters hopefully, as I spied some cheapie train tickets) and then next month we are heading camping near Bristol for a hot air balloon festival. Can’t wait! Mum is also visiting next month and we’re going to do a wee daytrip somewhere too. Yay!! :T

    I agree........Cornwall, Devon, the Lakes, Scotland generally and there are some stunning parts of Ireland.....I had some lovely holidays with my ex over the years in beautiful holiday cottages around the UK.
