Snake-Pit Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) Favorite Chicken; We have these in where I'm from... When I was here, all customers like me were from London too.. The chips here though, were different (better) and so was the service and presentation; It was so much better than my one; I wanted to cry. Damn it, the chips were so hot, bloody piping hot pillows of piping hot mashed potato/real potato 'of a chip'; the chips were so hot it was bordering burning my mouth they were piping hot; was nice. Wow though. I this was my instagram picture tagged https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/107102125/; and my comment too. 4d treborillusionBest Favourite Chicken I've ever eaten at, the food is so much better here I was going to be a foodie and take a picture of just how nice my chicken & chips looked, but the munchies got better of me; I took photo of the menu, the food looked do good I intended to follow up with a picture of my chicken and chips, but with out thinking it toons first bite, and the bag of chips 'French fries' were hot they almost burned me, food came so quick so well prepared, it was the best Favourite Chicken.. We don't even get that I Piccadilly Circus and they have a nice almost too good to be true same menu better food version of iron Amsterdam; either the ditch know to cook it the British don't Typos..^ but, yeah Alright, Piccadilly Circus doesn't even have a Favorite Chicken!.. And The Right Light District in Amsterdam does and; It's the best Favorite Chicken I ever had in my life... For shame London! :(. In fact, fuck it; lemmie show you what Piccadilly Circus has got; (Pulled from Google Maps Street View)..

Bono Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Toronto in September for 5 days for some Blue Jays baseball games New York for 8 days also in September for AXL/DC, Yankees game and all the other New York fixings. I gotta say I think it's pretty cool that I'll have scored the AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, AXL/DC hattrick in 2016. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulMonster Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Jokkmokk, Sweden. Staying at a camping site that reminds me of the one in Trailer Park Boys. Same kind of people. But with more mosquitos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm there for three days with work next month and would like to see some sights. Depends what you want. The old harbor is interesting, places like Hotel New York, where the big ocean liners left for the US. It's the biggest port in Europe and the 6th in the world I think. Take a boat tour there maybe. For modern architecture you're in the right place too. Just look at the central station, the Erasmus bridge opr the cube houses. Rent a bike and see them all. There's a statue that's supposed to be a giant santa with a snow-covered tree. Instead it looks like a gnome with a huge buttplug. The new Market Hall is a great place for general market stuff and all kinds of food. It's very diverse and one of the best indoor markets you'll find. Go to the Euromast for a great view over the city and beyond. If you want classic Dutch, go to Kinderdijk. It's half an hour by car or an hour by bike. It's the classic Dutch windmill scenery. Quite beautiful imo. In other news, after MUCh deliberation and switching ideas a million times, the Mrs and I are going to the Dolomites in early September. Anybody been there? Any advice on what to see and where to go? Edited August 16, 2016 by username Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boy Sixxx Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Off to Chernobyl in three weeks, going to be an eye opener I reckon. Rented a Geiger counter but was expecting (hoping) to pay more than a tenner for it. I mean it's probably quite an important bit of kit isn't it??! Potentially Dublin in February and then a big ass US road trip in March, the California coast one that every fucker does round to Vegas but no less awesome!

Have been to three of these, and would do it again..when in Venice, if you want souvenirs, make sure to cross the bridge into the older area, lots of long winding alleys where you will find the true puppet makers and venetian mask artists.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really..in general I found that certain older parts of cities had a certain urine-like sewer smell..Barcelona in particular..but, it's not everywhere, you get kind of used to it (ha!) and Venice was not that bad at all. And yes, you must go if you ever get the chance, it's truly magnificent! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cinque Terre was one of my favourites, each little village was so picturesque, with olive groves, pastel coloured buildings, clotheslines hanging from balconies across cobblestone streets, cats sunning themselves on doorsteps, lemons the size of grapefruits..it's exactly like you would imagine it to be! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlsFavoriteRose Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 i have a friend who lives in Portugal so i have an excuse for going over there then getting to Italy would be fairly doable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazey Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Well I was planning on no more big trips this year but looks like a change of plan. Heading back to the US for two weeks next month. 3rd time stateside in the last 12 months and I'm so gonna eat Texas BBQ until I hate myself! Looking forward to a couple of days in Austin too. Fancy a couple of beers @Apollo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Decided on going to Ireland for a few days (Okay, a few gigs ) in December. I've got a day to stop off in Oslo because of the way the flights worked out, then I'm heading to Dublin, Limerick, and Belfast. Booked my flights from JFK for $340 round trip, can't beat that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracii Guns Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Here is Gracii Guns' epic adventure. There are over 400 photos. I'll try to pick a couple from each city. The Dark Hedges in Ireland (used in Game of Thrones, apparently). We stayed in north Paris, near this park built in honour of Napoleon. It had a cave in it! This was the view on our entry into Venice. Outside the cathedral in Venice. We stayed just south of the Vatican City. Loved it here. A shot of Rome from the Vatican Museums. I bought a postcard of this and mailed it to a mygnr member! The best gelateria in Rome! Budapest, in front of a "rising from the ashes of the Holocaust" memorial recently erected by the Hungarian government. Greece, obvs. The very last day of the holiday, drinking a pina colada by the pool, showing off my pale limbs! Ireland! We crossed that rope bridge. Chuffing scary in the wind and rain! The day I wore a dress to Giant's Causeway! Paris, Notre Dame, obviously. More Venice Sistine Chapel, obvs. Old Rome Me with God's actual foot. Romulus and Remus being suckled by the wolf. Seeing that was a tick on my bucket list. Me high-fiving God. Dinner in Rome, complete with a poster advertising a brewery 10 miles from my home! Budapest Zoo. It's a bit cramped there. Me looking wistfully over the Danube. Some random place in Greece. ////////////////// 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
