So let's get this straight, so far it's tappas and then drink, followed by tappas and more drink? sounds rough, we need some Kultuure or sumfink

yeah, those Jarre gigs are very pricey, plus the cost of the travelling, hotel merchandise and visas

No hotel Andy,Mr ED has sorted us there and got us complimentary tickets. Biggest lay out was the flights,and they only cost under £50 for the two....The biggest problem is the visa's to get 8 of us across the border

It was a few years back now but I seem to remember really enjoying the Parc Güell (which was designed by Antoni Gaudí). We also walked all the way up Montjuic (before we found the small railway that almost runs to the top. Doh!!!) and that was very nice.

La Rambla and all the markets were pretty good but a friend of mine went there this year and said that it was full "living statues" which she found very irritating.

Obviously La Sagrada Família is just outstanding. We also went to another building designed by Gaudi but sadly I can't remember the name.

Strangely one of the most surprising places we went to was the fish market, early in the morning. An incredibly selection of fish, very colourful and beautifully presented. Smells a bit though.

Mostly though we just sat in the sun, drinking and relaxing.

Just back from this years hols. Had an awesome time.

Not much TD related happened but I did get to visit The Valley Of The Kings. Spent much of the time viewing Underwater Sunlight and did see a Dolphin Dance.

Many thanks to Erika, Hanny, Davide, Andreas and the rest of the iDive team for some fabulous Scuba Scuba. Anyone who wants a great short haul dive destination I can highly recommend them. Would be an awesome place to learn to dive.

Hope you have fun. I like visiting London but find it overwhelming after a day or so. Used to go there a lot when I lived in the South. Not sure I could do that now. It's almost like claustrophobia.

I am enjoying it very much! And Roger Waters in O2 Arena last night was out of this world! Speechless!

was last week in la douce France. Giverny. What a beautifull place. Can imagine why Claude Monet wanted his house to be there.
Fantastic.

Just back from a couple of days camping trip up the North East coast at beautiful Johnshaven. Peace and quiet, mega chillin' with beer and serious ipod duties

At great personal risk of serious death

I walked along the cliff path at Dunottar castle to get these photos for ye ........................

Moby photos do not do it justice, but this place is really something special, check it out if you ever get the chance.

PS Sorry for having to post photaes, but had to inform you of Dunottar
