It was f***ing amazing. Ferry to Santander then driving to Salamanca for the night. Next day onto Aveiro, Portugal for 10 nights before driving to Leon for the night and finishing off at Llanes for 5 nights. Northern Spain is beautiful - have previously done Gijon, Burgos, the Baztan area of the Pyrenees and Llanes (so nice we’re returning this trip!) will do Bilbao and San Sebastián in the future no doubt! Looking forward to going back! First family summer holiday since 2018 as working away and then Covid have scuppered travel for the past three summers Edited July 30, 2022 by theboyangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted July 30, 2022 Moderator Share Posted July 30, 2022 Just managed to arrange a new phone contract for me and the missus. 2 new iPhone 13 Pro Max on a 2 year contract and reduced how much we pay a month. Over the two years we'll pay £400 per phone less than it would cost to walk into an Apple shop and just buy the phones 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had an email yesterday saying Sky contract nearly at an end, but we’ve got this offer for it to only go up by 9 quid for the same package, saving you x amount over the contract length. Phoned em up to cancel. Got it for less than I’m paying now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Seat68 Posted August 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) A friend of mine lives in Chile and gets over every couple of years, as a result a group of friends that worked in Our Price/Virgin in the 90s get together and catch up. This happened in Telford last night, possibly the best night out I have had in a few years. Cheers me up but pisses me off it's so infrequent.

bickster Posted August 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted August 3, 2022 Second batch of collared doves this year. This time there’s two. One appeared Monday the second yesterday. They grow really fast. They’ll be gone in no time at all. But they make me smile 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
