Holidays

[Tuearts right boot]

Totally agree with the reap what you so. Go to North Wales regularly. I have a customer in Llanfairfechan and we quite often stopover in Conwy or Llandudno and make a weekend of it. Never had a single problem with any locals.
Warning. Look out for the 20.mph speed limits!!

Ha ha...all the guys on my table on the speed awareness course we're caught doing 24 and over in the 20 zones....

Booked flights for Malaga two months (Jan 6 - Mar 5) there as a base. Hope to be a pain all over Andalusia. Went Benidorm last winter for 7 weeks, that takes it out of you.

I

heard similar but I reckon it's an old wives tale. Not come across anything at all in 10 years of living in this one horse town

Nah mate he was fuming, no reason for him to make it up, I’ve been twice to Anglesey and never experienced any of it tbh.

Phuket is great if you want to sample ruSSian food.

I was in Phuket in April this year, and yes there are plenty of Russians, but that's generally always been the case for Thailand.
Some shops/restaurants will have signs written in English as well as Russian, but they didn't cause us any bother.
There's plenty of other nationalities kicking about too, so it's not exclusively Russian or anything like that.

Khao Lak north of Phuket is beautiful and a little quieter.
Bangkok is always fun and worth a visit.
Samui, Krabi, Phi Phi all worth considering too.

They have Songkran festival around the middle of April, so if you don't like getting wet then avoid that completely.
Would also avoid Easter too for the better prices on flights etc
