  1. Thanks,that's confirmed it for me.Anywhere a 2 hr drive away,we'd only do the ships tours anyway.Not worth it for a similar historical town.
  2. We're going there with Celebrity over Christmas.On the itinerary it says Cadiz for Seville,but it's 2 hrs from Seville.Our daughter says Seville is lovely but I think we will stick local.
  3. +1,sorry Sue I should have replied earlier.I had Delhi belly 6 years ago,not good.
  4. It's a small world.248,252 and 193 also go to Hornchurch.We only live 300 yds from the Devonshire,it didn't look shut when we walked into town 2 hrs ago.Going to the gym at 1.30,I'll have a look and let you know.I love this thread.
  5. LOL,I realised that too late last week,didn't even bother to research trains from Liverpool st.Plus we only pay from zone 6 having a London freedom pass.We live 2 stops from Upminster in Hornchurch.My OH took her brother to Reading yesterday, just changing at Whitechapel, for a day out.That journey didn't cost a penny.
  6. I see your point,we're new at this game,lol.We're going to Northampton next thursday to see my new found aunt again.Only 50 mins and cheaper than the coach.When NE have to change coaches it works out dearer quite often.We learnt that last week going to Cambridge changing at STN.
  7. We've just got a travel together rail card 30% off all journeys in UK for 30 quid.Individual cards are 30 quid each.We intend to use trains and coaches a lot more nowdays.Especially after just driving a "trans Atlantic" in 8 days.
  8. Wooly hat and waterproofs yesterday,shorts and t shirt today.It will still be 3 days b4 the swamp at the end of my walk thru the fields drys out.We have seed drone attacks from our neighbours Sycamore and they instantly take root.The 2 30ft palm trees in our communal front garden in Italy seed every year and that is even worse.At least we don't have that problem now.
  9. OMG,they could at least turn them into mobile phone masts.More useful.
  10. Wet and miserable here today.Just as I have started walking across the dry fields again to the gym.Got to walk in the lanes with all the idiot drivers not paying attention.Glad your Grandaughter's ok @kalos.
  11. You've never fancied a back,sack and crack then Kalos.All the rage with Essex boys.Luckily, I'm too smooth to need one.
  12. Just read that Ingar the lady captain we had on QE is now in charge of QA.She's OK, she waited in person with trays of fizz when our tour bus was 4 hrs late in Sri Lanka.
  13. Qatar,1 cabin bag max 7kg and also 1 personal item like handbag allowed.Just googled it.Brian.
  14. In collaboration with Lego.Don't worry me any more.I'm sure it's poshy la la and blingy inside.Par for the course now with design,same as cars all looking the same.
  15. Looks like the wraparound bridge has 4 floors above it.Never seen that b4,correct me if I'm wrong.
  16. Happy birthday sis,unforgivable for your bro to forget,bro.
  17. I remember it well,especially the "cliffhanger" at the end.
