The Barnes massif are booked for Biarritz & Treviso. Maybe you could treat us all to breakfast?

DB- UR might be able to do you a good deal with a hotel if you want.

We're actually staying in San Sebastian as drink is one fifth the price compared to Biarritz plus we had one hell of a day out there last time - much more lively than Biarritz. Do feel free to come visit and I'll treat you to a large G & T at the Hotel Londres.

I've already told you, us country boys wont pay your big city prices. Hope you have a good time in boring Bayonne while we live it up in San Sebastian - known as the Larne of Spain! Now there's sophistication for you.

Speaking from recent experience youngman, the drink and food is half the price in Treviso that it is in Venice, food is also a lot better, don't know if this will be same in January though

Big problem sourcing Guinness found none in Treviso and only bottled at 7â‚¬ per small bottle in Venice

Two questions -

What is Ryanairs baggage allowance?

and

How much does a tin of stout weigh?

Rooster · Post by **Rooster** » Fri Jul 15, 2005 11:22 am

I like your way of thinking BR

15 kilo's in hold and 10 kilo's hand baggage at approx 1 kilo per litre equals 50 large cans minus weight of cases

1 or 2 problems though, that leaves no room for clothes and even worse by the time Ryanair baggage handlers have finished with the 15 kilo case you will not be able to open them for about 3 weeks

and thats the ones they have not burst

ps if you fly Aer Lingus you can get an extra kilo of stout on board

Good to see you back Rooster. We await a full and detailed Recconnaisance report.

Rooster hope you didn't think you were away on your holidays in Treviso and have appropriate watering holes and hotels fully investigated for the game in January

???

I'll be wearing those.

Full report on mission to Treviso will appear on site soon, biggest drawback I witnessed was the lack of Guinness, perhaps this will be sorted for us coming over

BR's option looks like the only one for The Black Stuff drinkers at present

The big incentive for wine drinkers is the posssibility of buying a bottle of good quality wine for the price of a pint at home

BR, the one set of clothes should do you in January as the smell won't get too bad due to it being about the same temperature over there as here then

Lack of guinness implies lack of guinness stains which reduces the need to change your shirt in the first place.... When you consider the odours emanating from my room-mates on these trips, the smell of my own oxters can be quite refreshing

. Just so long as I remember not to pss myself!

Anyway it's all booked now Thur - Mon. We've got 'til January to work on the the lack of stout.

Since when did a Guinness stain make anyone feel the need to change a shirt
