Going to take the Mrs away for her Birthday in March. Just a long weekend somewhere.

Any tips for that time of year? Was thinking the Scottish Highlands, potentially.

Will that not be awfully cold and wet?

I find Southern Europe is perfect for that time of year. A nice bit of warmth and sunshine a good month or so before we get it in our northern climes.

Hmm, went cycling in Mallorca last March. The weather was awful. Perhaps the Canary Islands would offer more promise & I have never been there before.

Risk of bumping into Monty knocking one out in his local butcher, though. :-(

Also, Shepherd Neame :-(

The Canaries? Are they not crawling with our more chavular brethren?

Yes.

Shame really.

Playa Blanca in Lanzarote used to be a lovely little port with a couple of beaches. You could get the ferry to Fuerteventura for the day...

Now it's been Tomas Cooked :-(

Does that not mean building in a couple more days?

Was there not an alternative from Schiphol?
