[Bluenose]

bit off topic but - later this year i hit the big 40 so am planning to do a city break with the boys for beer n skittles...

where though (bearing in mind bear prices!)

How about

Prague
Villneus
Budapest
Krakow?

anyone?

Too cold this time of year m8.

I would say do Marbella, get on the beach, drink beer cans but it looks like its going to rain all week in that part Europe.

Ibiza looks nice.

Bummer, man. Commiserations.

But if its "not right" you may have missed a bullet.

Sad anyway as you had so much investment in it.

Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you Shame as the box idea was fab!

Ditto, I also thought the box was a wonderful idea - geeky yet romantic.
Sorry to hear it was not to be.

North West Outer Mongolia might be slightly colder.

If you're quick, it shouldn't be too late to change your booking.

Oddly enough if you want lots of snow and ice, it has to be cold. It's due to get up to -3 this week and not below -20, pretty balmy

A week in a log cabin in Lapland, travelling from/to Helsinki on sleeper train.

The cost of living is high, agreed, and the increased tax is also not great, beer is about 8-9quid a pint depending on where you go

Ouch. I thought the prices on the buffet car in Finland were expensive at €6 but that seems a bargain now.

I thought you were getting engaged

yes, we were

did she ever open the box?

yes and no, she used the box, cracked the screen, it broke, I opened the box and proposed the traditional way

Guess you need to change your location in your profile.

good point, I will

It's been a while since we have had someone to moan about the high cost of living in Scandinavian countries, give us in fondue land a break.

So come on then, how much is a pint of beer?

The cost of living is high, agreed, and the increased tax is also not great, beer is about 8-9quid a pint depending on where you go, but i like the country a lot and as I have a long term contract here I figure I might aswell stay a while before deciding where to live.

Monkfish Wellington not turn out?

ex gf chef wasn't at that dinner party, that was for a different group of people and I didn't cook monkfish wellington, in the end I went with Trout en papillote which was a big success
