Re: The Holiday thread
Exactly the reason we’re here, Tyzy.
Mrs MtC’s 60th today
First two days were nice, but wet after midday today. Going home tomorrow.
But yes, a really interesting place to visit.

Re: The Holiday thread
I’m afraid I can’t claim this trip, although South America - (
and
) is definitely on my to do list.
However, in this case beaten to it by my younger daughter, who, with 4 friends, is currently in Cusco, Peru. This weekend they’ve taken a trip across the Andes to the Sacred Valley and the salt mines.
She sent these photos today - it looks absolutely amazing
…….I am jealous!

Booked a week in Cyprus in April and the Iranians have just launched 2 missiles at it. The missus is a bit wary of going now, I’ll miss her.

Re: The Holiday thread
Already planning my trip to Leeds/Yorkshire for March of 2027.
On my one trip there a few years ago I saw the Armory Museum, York Minster Cathedral, walked atop the city walls in York, had afternoon tea at Betty's in Harrogate, and spent a couple of days in and around Pately Bridge and walking in the Dales. I also made a pilgrimage to the Refectory to see the "Live at Leeds" plaque.
Depending on how the football schedule works out, I will be spending at least one day at Elland Road, but I'm looking for ideas. What's the best of Yorkshire? Pubs? Scenery?

Apparently I have a reputation. It’s totally unfounded obviously. I’m a nice guy, ask anybody - apart from Cussie that is, he’s just soft.John in Louisiana wrote: ↑Mon Mar 02, 2026 12:15 am Why would I not? Is there something I should know?
