Nah, he's not an unmarried woman with his shoulders on display, he's just a druggy.
Germany was gash. Horrible place, you lot were right to invade.
What didn't you like? Were you in Munich?
Managed to book the airport transit hotel, meaning we don't have to go through Qatari immigration and deal with their covid restrictions or get arrested for being a drug trafficker.
Cost was a bit painful (given we can't get the money back on the transfer or hotel in Doha) but feels worth it.
Driving to their airport today, fly to Doha tomorrow and then Maldives Monday. Can't wait.
Thanks for the update.

I would've just left the pills at home, mate.
I was thinking the same. Going through that for a convenience, you’d swear they were keeping him alive.
The last time I got bad insomnia, I didn't sleep for five full days and wanted to kill myself. People underestimate how bad prolonged sleep deprivation is.
It's not convenience. I take them if I really, really need to and not otherwise. I don't want to be stuck on an island in the above situation.
Just get pissed.
I'm taking a six hour train to Vienna tomorrow with the 7 month old. Pray for us.
(Hope the post is ok, Bam)
We're booking for Lake Garda next year and the Google algorithm has now shown me a news item about how the level of the water has never been lower. Looking forward to beautiful views over the dust bowl.
Don’t listen to the EasyJet lies. Must have had about 3 different updates from them to tell me to arrive at the airport 2.5/3 hours before our flight due to issues in security. Literally took 1 minute to get through. No pub or even shops to wander through were open for the 1st hour and a bit ffs
Booked to go to Portugal in October, Porto Santo to be exact. First trip abroad for a while and will be doing it with a one year old...
Qatar really is a nice airline. Way better than when we flew BA.
Cool story bro.
What is your problem with me
You've been doing it loads recently, it's so fucking weird.
It’s Bam, he actually thinks it’s humorous.What is your problem with me
You've been doing it loads recently, it's so fucking weird.
If you want to get slapped about like Waff, Tragic or Taz then come at me, but the current act is just sad.
Tiny bikinis I was expecting, but some Italian woman in her 40s with tits like melons rocking up to dinner in a loose-knit beach coverup and absolutely nothing else took me by surprise.
Literally may as well have been naked.
I'm assuming the pictures are to follow?
On our way back.
The Maldives really is incredible. It's the definition of paradise. Highly recommend it to anyone considering going.
The snorkeling was a real highlight. The reefs are absolutely teeming with the most amazing tropical fish.
Banger of a holiday.
@Bam
Can we have your return flight details so we can track it please?
"Just got through security. #HereWeGo"
I don't want to get slapped about like Waff, Tragic or Taz.
Snorkeling over scuba diving is the definition of beta.
Well yeah, everything everyone else does is wrong.
I bet you don't even know how to swim.
I bet you really can’t understand how you didn’t fuck off from here years ago.
I didn't realise a post saying I had a nice time on holiday could fuel so much animosity.
It's your superpower.
In fairness he’s done fuck all only moan like a cunt for a good while now about how everyone is wrong.
Also, I only remembered @Kiko it’s because Germans are fucking arseholes. People (you lot) complain about the French but the Germans are the rudest people alive.
I'd definitely stick to snorkelling, beta or otherwise. One of my 100 rules for life is don't do anything that requires an oxygen tank.
What are the other 99? Start a thread.
I think the Bavarians are a special breed. Other Germans I've met are alright.
I've never been a big holiday person but this trip has awakened something in me. We're lready looking for somewhere to start saving up to go to in a couple of years time.
Wondering about Madagascar or a safari park in Africa.
Travelling down to St Ives for the week. Recommendations welcome.
I went to Tasvo in Kenya, nearly twenty years ago now and it remains the best place I've ever been. Unbelievable experience and would thoroughly recommend.
I've been in France for about 5 days now and my question is this: why do they like fancy cakes so much? Is this why Napoleon lost at Waterloo? If not, why? This country, on paper, should dominate Europe, but I feel they just spend too much time on patisserie.
Another thing I've noticed is the total absence of sport in their cultural life, apart from the odd nod to recreational vélo. Oh, and in England, have you ever seen a black person in a kebab shop? I haven't, yet here in France it's only the blacks who eat kebab. Curieux.
I went to Paris expecting to find loads of different buns and fill my boots, but it turns out every bakery just makes the exact same six buns exactly the same.
I was told - and I haven't bothered to confirm this because it sounds true and also fits my prejudices - that, whereas in a normal country anybody can just set themselves up as a baker by baking and selling it, in France you have to go through fifty years of training and have bakery badges. That, combined with the fact that every Parisian apparently has some legal right to fresh buns at all times, means that the bakeries all have to work together and not against each other, and then nobody wants to be the one selling 'loaded brownies' and getting his windows put in.
Eventually Starbucks will eviscerate all the boulangerie/bakery dweebs because it's miles more convenient to get stuff from one place than have to visit 17 shops to do you shopping
Don't think the French will take that one lying down (I've seen plenty of sad-looking empty Starbucks in the bigger cities), their prevailing culture runs pretty much contrary to the grubby Anglo-Saxon idea of convenience. Take last night, I arrived in a pretty decent-sized city at 5.30pm, was hungry, headed out for something to eat at about 6.15pm... non. La service begins at 7pm, in all of the city's 100 odd restaurants, because we are in France, and 7pm is when it is time to eat. Until then, you're stuffed, monsieur.
First day in Paris I had a chocolate religieuse, I don't understand how they can eat things like that more than once a year without their hearts giving up on them.
They barely move.
The Portuguese, Italian and the Germans are also pretty cake mad. I'm surprised there aren't more fatties.
