Worst B&B I've ever stayed in was Canterbury. Decided it was more hygeinic to sleep on the duvet, rather than under it, and to avoid the shower!Is Canterbury really expensive? I’ve no idea but I loved staying there when I had work in Kent
I had no idea they fried things in Canterbury.Worst B&B I've ever stayed in was Canterbury. Decided it was more hygeinic to sleep on the duvet, rather than under it, and to avoid the shower!
Also skipped breakfast when I saw great globules of sweat dripping from the cook's... beard and popping as it hit the layers of fat that everything was being fried in.

What about somewhere like Ramsgate, would that be more affordable?It's not too bad actually, but apparently the traffic is awful and it's getting worse. Big new development of housing taking place and everyone is worried it's going to make it so much worse.
We both love Canterbury. Such a lovely feel to the place.
Yes, definitely.What about somewhere like Ramsgate, would that be more affordable?
Yes, definitely.
We have quite the balance to be made. My missus's daughter is 18 and works at Deloitte in central London and she is looking for a fast train route into London, while at the same time, my missus and I are looking to move closer to the sea.
Ramsgate is cheaper, but the journey time is too long.
Really hard to get the right balance. Rochester is nice, but next door, Strood, is horrible. Only 34 mins into London though.
I think my missus needs to temper her desire a little because she wants 4 bedrooms (currently has 3), 4 bathrooms (actually already has 4), a good size garden, fast train to London, close to the sea and with decent parking.
And for under 400k
In Kent!!!
Astute Estates.You need to get astute on the case - he’d get 2 houses for that
Isn’t Lake Garda getting a reputation for being absolutely rammed in the high season? Don't think I'd fancy it much in the moho, although I'd like to go.
I can only assume that you have a job as a air hostess.Lanzarote in May. Woolacombe in July. Malta, North Macedonia, somewhere for Ukraine (probably Poland) and Italy on England trips. Back to Italy for the Ryder Cup. Maybe France for the World Cup.
Only 2? Would get 5 of what I'm presently buying with cash left over. We have the 4 bedrooms but only 2 bathrooms. But we do also have an extension which will be made into a place for visitors. Could have a chateau with acres of land for that much.You need to get astute on the case - he’d get 2 houses for that
Not me. Worked on average 70 to 80 hours a week all the way through Covid to make sure our plant kept running. Need a break. The only work I'll be doing is for charity or for the local commune.Astute Estates.
Does kind of have a nice ring to it doesn't it.
One of our pre season games in Italy was high up a mountain overlooking Lake Garda. Looks fantastic and I have the Lake District on my doorstep. Not been yet though. Will be going either this year or next.Going around Lake Garda in August, we last went in 2015 or so and loved it. (Also bought a Verona shirt that I ended up selling for profit on ebay so watch out club shop, here I come)
Hate to be the bringer of bad news, but they pulled it down in 2006.Not me. Worked on average 70 to 80 hours a week all the way through Covid to make sure our plant kept running. Need a break. The only work I'll be doing is for charity or for the local commune.
My 21 year old daughter is considering being an estate agent though. Speaks 5 languages now. Or going into HR.
I blame the beer. Took me a fair bit to work that outHate to be the bringer of bad news, but they pulled it down in 2006.
Yeah, around the main holiday periods it’s a nightmare…even driving by the area on the motorway can add an extra hour or two on to a journey.Isn’t Lake Garda getting a reputation for being absolutely rammed in the high season? Don't think I'd fancy it much in the moho, although I'd like to go.
Precisely what I'd heard, and why I won't be venturing down from the very north of Italy. Even in May!Yeah, around the main holiday periods it’s a nightmare…even driving by the area on the motorway can add an extra hour or two on to a journey.
It's a two-berth fixed bed Weinsberg (not common here, but saw quite a few in France and Spain last year. V popular in Germany as you get a Knaus van for less cash). Based on a Series 8 Fiat Ducato 140.What sort of motorhome do you have?
The trip you have planned sounds brilliant.

Looks just like the area around the Stadium of Light.Malcesine is where we stayed last time, I've been to uglier places
It had the cable car up Monte Baldo so you get the full view and it's nicely positioned to visit the various places around the lake, probably my favourite holiday
Where was that played? I assume it was near Riva del Garda?View attachment 28597
This was the view from the club house. Lost 3-0 to Chievo.
No idea. All I remember was having to run up a hill to make kick off.Where was that played? I assume it was near Riva del Garda?
Been inspired to go to Sicily and do a White Lotus tour, hookers included
I had to keep going up the grass bank where the toilets were as my little boy kept needing it throughout the first half. But that was where the best views were so wasn't all bad.No idea. All I remember was having to run up a hill to make kick off.
Catania isn’t great but I really like Palermo - where else did you go? There are some unbelievably beautiful places in Sicily.Went to Sicily in October and it was absolutely terrible. Palermo and Catania are two of the worst cities I have ever been to. Some of the smaller resorts are fine, but we stayed quite a bit in the busier places and they are ridiculously dirty and shit.
