I went direct and cut out the agent. Rolling off my current gig straight on to another. Top rate you and your parasitic mates won't be seeing any of. In fact, i've managed to get another contractor into the new gig direct too. The sooner you people have to go back to selling cars the better.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostHi de Hi Thicko

Villa holidays in Spain/Portugal/Italy are great.
Loads to see and do in Italy if you want that kind of historic tourism.
Morocco if you like to be robbed
Maldives if you are a true contractor and are looking for at least 5k to blow
Malaysia if you want to be surrounded by nice people and eat good food
Dubai if you want some hot weather, nice food and millions of indoor shopping centres
For me Europe is more or less the same everywhere you go - try somewhere else....Comment

Actually, rereading my post, I do come across a bit simples.Originally posted by aussielong View PostI did a fantastic backpacking trip a few years ago across Sicily. I backpacked my way round. Would definitely recommend it if you like great country side, great buildings, great food and great looking women. Nobody speaks English though so you have to learn basic Italian to get by. You can get a train right round the coast. That's what I did - got on and off in various places. One of the best trips i've done.
Who'd of thought you get on and off the train, and go backpacking on a backpacking holiday!
