I'm off to Florence a fortnight today.

Had been hoping to catch Fiorentina vs Pisa whilst there , but alas it seems to have been moved to a Monday evening (when i'll be flying home). Presumably due to a repeat of the trouble which marred the match earlier in the season.

Having scouted round the fixtures.... Livorno are at home.... but i'm spying Padova vs Bari.... and despite the distance, its shaping up as the best option.... 1hr40 on the train, and two "big" names.

Might just fuck it off and go to Pisa though

Doing a week in Cromer at Easter and the July fortnight at Skegness. Always stop at the same digs and love it.

Going away with the family for a long weekend later. We've got a nice little cottage in a small town in the Yorkshire Dales, so can go on a couple of hikes and have a laugh with the kids.

Not exciting in itself, but it does mean I can enjoy people's reaction when I answer the question "What are you doing for Valentines Day?" with several variations of "Visiting Hawes with my family" (admittedly works much better said out loud)

Florence is one of my favourite cities on the planet, utterly beautiful with incredible food and culture

Me and the Missus like a little weekend away when we can get a dog sitter and done a few ‘weird’ ones like Huntingdon (shit), Wakefield (great laugh), Doncaster (freezing but good fun) and in a couple of weeks we’re off to Reading!

Only ever been once for the football (which was a great day out on a boiling hot Saturday) but looks like there’s quite a few bars and restaurants and one of those ‘March of the Mods’ events on the Saturday so plenty of live music.

Anyone ever been and recommend any bars/restaurants, things to do etc

Went to Florence a couple of weeks ago. As expected it was stunning.

Out to the coast to Livorno on the saturday for a look round, and went to the football.

On the sunday i'd planned to go to Siena, but the weather was gorgeous so i took a couple of trains to La Spezia.... then a bus to a little village on the sea called Portovenere. Absolutely stunning, and sat in the sun it could well have been summer.

Didn't spend too much time in Florence itself, aside from walking round the usual sights, but really is a beautiful place. Quick visit to Pisa to see the tower.

Yeah it’s hit them bad.

The Government has ordered a four day week due to the lack of oil and gas.

The hit on tourism will just exacerbate the problems as well.

Dusseldorf the weekend before Christmas for NHL Global Series. Was expecting the worst on prices given the time of year but pleasantly surprised.

Also off to Zurich in may for the IIHF World Champsionhips. Hopefully don't have to worry about the play off final being in the middle of the tournament.

Have you been to Dusseldorf before? I quite liked it. The old town is nice and there are two streets lined with bars and restaurants and a brewery selling the Alt bier. Also a great place that sells pork knuckle on a spit, it's called Hamham, absolutely superb

I think we went somewhere in that vague general area on a school trip but it was so long ago I'm not entirely sure!

Fly out early Friday and come back Monday afternoon so plenty of time besides the 2 games, Friday and Sunday night.
