    Don't think we've had a Boyd mugshot since that one of him looking all excited in his room at the Catholic university.

    Too spasticated to think to get a group photo but I will share two separate ones of us later. Maybe even a video of @Boydy in his vomit bed if he fails to pay me the ransom.

    I'm off to Greece in a couple of weeks. For the first time, I actually give a shit about getting covid. I make myself about 1/100 to catch it.

    Doesn't look like it. I'm double-Pfizered. It'd be too great a headache to turn back that many Brits.

    Actually, does the NHS app specify which jabs you've had? Might get around it by flashing that at check-in. It's not starting til November anyway.

    We tried pretty much every place in Marina Grande when we were there, mainly because that's where we stayed and fuck walking up that hill every day.

    Just got back from Poland.

    There was a guy in the row in front of me who looked like Taz, well if Taz wasn't a manlet.

    Also, in Poland my vaccination certificate was checked when entering and when leaving (they also checked my passenger locator form). In the UK though they just checked my passport and that was it. It also turns out that the day 2 LFT that I ordered has not come so fuck knows what I'm meant to do about that. Although given how passport control didn't care at all I suppose it doesn't matter.

    Genuinely means nothing whether you do it or not. Complete scam.

    Isn't it packed with Michelin starred places? I'd love to give Noma a try.

    I'm too posh to know about normie cuisine.

    I'm going home for Christmas next month. Getting to Greece is a pain in the arse in winter, so I often go via a European city and spend a day or two mooching about. Usually Berlin or Scandinavia somewhere. Going to do a nice little route through Kyiv this time. No camgirls waiting for me but I'm pretty hyped.

    I didn't go to any super fancy places, but I do remember this place doing a great brunch http://www.madogkaffe.dk/ and this place with amazing presentation of tap beers https://taphouse.dk/.
    I also went around this time of year, and just recall it was bitterly cold and Tivoli was worth a visit.

    I’ve been. The food scene is indeed great, but fuck me food and drinks are generally expensive there.

    Edit: to make this post a bit more helpful, there’s an Ethiopian place called Ma’ed that was great. Not very fancy though.

    We* did it in 2007 when United played Kiev. Had the full tour including all the radioactive moss filled buildings.

    *The we here is because I couldn't find my passport in the morning so couldn't go.

    Testing the waters for San Francisco again. £1500 for two weeks-ish in March. I'm not pulling the trigger but I think I wound up paying £200 more two years back. I think I had it planned for a shorter stay back then. Although that's precisely how much PCR testing's going to hit my pocket for. Actually, an LFT could cover me on the return so an extra £95.

    The way over included a 4 hour wait at SEATAC which is a bugger.

    Not sure I’d spend two weeks in San Francisco. It’s a cool place but you might want to branch out a bit. I’d recommend 3-4 days in Vegas and get the Grand Canyon in.

    Yeah, now that I think of it, there's not that much to fill the time. Alcatraz, maybe the USS Hornet and a couple of other things. I could hop back to the east coast and do some DC stuff or spend a few days in New York again. It would take the edge off the jet lag.

    He lies. We went out on a massive piss up the night before and I couldn't handle it. Put my passport somewhere for safe keeping which I had no recollection of come the morning.

    Can’t recommend DC highly enough. So underrated.
