Crowds and excitement are just what I'm attempting to escape from myself with this upcoming retirement.
I'm very envious of that cozy European lifestyle.
It reminds me of the American deep south.
I dislike big, noisy crowded cities.
Plenty of crowds here too Ed, I try to avoid cities everywhere whenever possible! If you go at the right time of year it can be better though!

It's funny because I left my home town as a young man vowing to never return because there was nothing there to do. And have spent the last 33 years trying to get back and for the same reasons.

You'll have to come next year, Gillian!
I will on ONE condition: that the TWO Olis come along with me. Alright?:D

Then I will sort it.
wifey and I used to kip at the airport.
Lots of people live there, you know.
I might introduce you to a couple if they're about.
Kipped on the beach once with wifey somewhere along that coastline.
Got badly manged by sandflies! Horrible.
We stay in more comfort these days!


there is a tom hanks film, the terminal if memory serves me... well worth a watch!! he's stuck in limbo and thrives, not survives in the airport. brilliant film:)

I loved that movie.
And Catherine Zeta-Jones was still beautiful.
Not that she looks like a cow now....

Hope the course goes well John.
I don't like London - been lots of time to theatres, museums etc - there's lots to do and see and my nephew and his wife live there as does a cousin - but its far too busy for me - I don't like crowds! Not at all keen on the underground either!


thankfully I'm missing all that.


but spain!!!! ;)

Its true -the other mans grass is always greener, absence makes the heart grow fonder and you don't know what you got till its gone!
