radfordred 6,284 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Booked online this morning, packed, Son picked us up, flew through check in & departures on my second pint of Castle Rock Session IPA, should be in Daylan in half the time & money it would have taken us to drive to Cornwall, If this is the new normal, I’m loving it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RoseQueen 14 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Well done for attempting Turkey - been to Dalyan myself a few times. Make sure you see the turtles - usually evenings when getting dark they come up the edge near to the bars/restaurants sometimes. And there was an unusual restaurant just outside town that was more of a hanging gardens meets zoo meets exotic birds enclosure- interesting. If yo get there in half the Cornwall time - then you're on a winner. Have a great trip.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,729 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Â I hope you enjoy it RR. Â Personally I wouldn't be going to Turkey now Covid or no Covid. I won't support that country's economy until that dictator Erdogan is gone and Turkey's secular democracy is restored. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philmayfield 6,130 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Basically you wouldn't go anywhere if you closely examined their political system. At least Turkey is not currently on the covid 'hit list' but who knows what lies in store? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mary1947 2,079 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Not the tram radfordred but it was those silly people on the council who gave permission for Vic and Broadmarsh center to be built' Nottingham lost lots of lts life and history, taken away by these center's When will the UK  do it's  own thing and not keep wanting to be ike the USA. keeping up with the "Jones" I don't want you to take this the wrong way but St Ann's are a brilliant community bunch and we are proud to come from a shithole as you state this chat say's.? Not like some other places in Nottm I could mention. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radfordred 6,284 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 He said shithole, not me I think the Turkish boat tip seller was a serious shagger, I met him later in the week when I borrowed a motorbike off him for the day, he told me about another woman he used to service from Mapperley Park    Quote Link to post Share on other sites

radfordred 6,284 Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Think our maid may have to much time on her hands, if I tip her will it continue, tip her & ask her to stop, what do I do with all these petals & flowers, bin it, flush it, chuck it on the floor creating her more mess? This room could end up looking like the Chelsea flower show  2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
