Could also have 1 mega bash.

I'm a weekend break sort of man so usually spend my time off back at home http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/frown.gif

but I can do it for a long weekend perhaps.

I have a lot of places I want to go but I want to do some of them quickly and maybe see as many cities/towns as possible during the trip.

If I go to Italy again I can try to work my way through a few places at once.

Comming back is fine as they just chuck me out the back of the plane in a box with a parachute.

Going to be lots of smiling and nodding imo.

I speak hardly any Spanish and they speak no English.

I am wearing trousers I never fit in ever.

even my 34 size waist are too loose.

but I only have so many holiday days in a year.

I'd rather spend 3 days in Vienna then take the rest of the time for a big trip.

plus only a matter of time before I have a baby.

It is strange that we are living identical lives these days.

She moved into my flat this weekend just gone. Then we're gonna move to South West London early next year.

and the majority of the time they speak to me in English and I get lazy and use English back.

I suppose that's the problem with going to a tourist trap, not much scope for having to use Spanish or going hungry.

When you are trying to speak the native language and they just come back to you in English. I appreciate they are trying to be nice as their English is obviously much better than your Spanish, but I need to have a practice please!!

Having said that it only rained about 3 times in the 10 days I was there last summer.

It's quite scenic, and remote. Very remote.

I only go to Wales when I have to visit the in-laws and even then I have managed to swerve it for about 2 years.

My flight is guaranteed to go by the Spanish government but will probably be subject to delays.

or there is this - I played cricket with Ray Parlour at the nearby Audley End stately home. I got the train out to Stansted so it must be reasonably close

I will probably just drive home again in all honesty.

Or not even set off there in the first place.
