Thinking of South/South West Sri Lanka beginning of February for a couple of weeks. Looking at Bentota and Ahangama. Anyone been?
They’re smart little fuckersHad run in with a local, he wasn't giving up the bag
He wasn't letting go without a fight imo. That was still from a video of me asking him to let go lolThey’re smart little fuckers
Not sure where you’re at, not that it matters, Raccoons are a ………bunch of cunts hidden in a cloak of cuteness.He wasn't letting go without a fight imo. That was still from a video of me asking him to let go lol
South Seach Miami this was in Bill baggs state parkNot sure where you’re at, not that it matters, Raccoons are a ………bunch of cunts hidden in a cloak of cuteness.
I think I mentioned it elsewhere but I was in Seville when Kev equalized in the Bernabeu so probably early May.Well, I wasn't going to mention it again, but thanks. :)
If I'd filmed it in August, I think you'd have seen a very different video! But I'm intrigued to hear how DTKOAG gets on. Might be lucky and it be merely 40 degrees.
My daughter was on uni placement for five weeks in Sri Lanka and loved the people and the placeThinking of South/South West Sri Lanka beginning of February for a couple of weeks. Looking at Bentota and Ahangama. Anyone been?
Updated watched nephew play in under 12s and they lost 6-2. Off now to MSL New England v Cincinnati. The in-laws reckon I'm going for 3-0 in defeats todaySwapped 35 degrees in Miami to 15 in Massachusetts. Pouring with rain but worth every drop to get to see my niece play football for the first time in her Under 8s team. Her team Wayland lost to Franklin 5-1 but great to see her out there enjoying the game.
I was speaking to someone in the pub earlier who said the same. I am going to go for it and book the flights tomorrow.My daughter was on uni placement for five weeks in Sri Lanka and loved the people and the place

Kin love sarcasm almost as much as this post.Just a quick heads up. A public service broadcast if you like.
Do NOT go to Puglia on the heel of Italy . It’s a proper dump . There’s no Irish bars, or pubs selling full English brekkies. The little historical towns with their bloody historical towers and cathedrals and Roman ruins , their Ottoman inspired buildings which are free to visit in most cases just aren’t worth the effort.
Extortionate prices for food and drink is the norm. Yesterday I was charged 3 Euro for a 660 ml bottle of Peroni Rosso and had to drink it on a crappy terrace overlooking the Adriatic Sea.
They can’t even cook spaghetti. I’ve had it 4 times and it’s nothing like the Heinz tins.
And don’t even get me started on the restaurant owner who left me a bottle of wine at my Airbnb because we visited his establishment.
Don’t drive on the road from Otranto to Santa Leuca de Maria on the coast road because there’s nothing to see.Its like a boring M61.
The locals are miserable sods and as soon as I find out what Ciao and Buongiorno mean , which they all call me with a smile on their face, I’m gonna kick off.
Some of them even pretend to know Manchester Citeeeeeeee.
Right .
Back to Fuengirola next year .
