Ramsey to Douglas over the Mountain Road. Howling along the Mountain Mile at 160mph, with the other half hanging on the back as a pillion passenger. Doesn't get any better than that!

There is nothing I enjoy more at an Airport, than watching people being pulled with oversized bags, trying to squeeze them in the sizers, then being charged. You agreed to the T&C's when you bought the ticket. Don't whine when you get caught out. As for the EU they can F off. There can't be much...

Many years ago, after a flight from Dublin, walked from East Midlands Airport to Donington Park, watched the British Motorcycle GP, walked back to East Midlands Airport, then got the flight back to Dublin. Also remember walking from the Falcon's Nest Hotel in Port Erin, on the Isle of Man, in...

North Harrow to/from West Harrow.

Never knew Celine Dion and Lady Gaga were French (Sarcasm!!). Watched some of it in the pub with the other half. It was terrible, especially the Catwalk crap. We spent most of the evening trying, and failing to name anyone of the French 'stars' and torch holders. Would have been impressed if...

43 Station Hotel. Stayed there a few years back. Was good value. A couple of minutes walk to Centrale, going right past the main Tram Stops for the Station. The Trams are a must. Never had any trouble snapping Trains in Italy. Rail fares are good value. Check this website...
