Holidays

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 .

That doesn’t sound very nice, I wouldn’t go back there again if I was you. We certainly won’t be going.
