Austrian All The Way

When are the Austrians going to learn? It’s Manchester, pure and simple. It always has been and as far as I can imagine it always will be. And yet, somehow they’re sure it’s Menchester…. My adventure over, I flew back yesterday from Vienna to what is fast becoming my s...Read more

Reviewed Studying a Foreign Language

Use Them or Lose Them

If you are like me and, well, never shut up, learning a foreign language (or 2 or 3) is the best thing you can do. Just think of all the new people in the world you'll be able to bore (sorry 'entertain') with your opinions! My first encounter with foreign languages was early on. My mother was...Read more

Linging You Through The Aer

I left an Aer Lingus flight so recently that my ears still haven’t popped. Normally I’m ok, I chew and I chew as the plane comes in to land, and I disembark as happy as a bunny (although naturally not as much of a happy bunny as Happybunny herself) but this morning something went wro...Read more

Forget At You Peril!
Ten Important Things Required while Travelling

I will be needing them (off to America, and usually end up in Europe) but like I said in the first para, thought they were too obvious to forget. Although no doubt it has been known.......

Reviewed Ten Important Things Required while Travelling

Forget At You Peril!

I’m off on holiday(again) tomorrow and I’m all packed – which is why I’m online instead of studying – it’s hard to go over notes when they’re at the bottom of your suitcase. I’m not going to include things like passports and tickets in this list, b...Read more

Reviewed Milan, Italy (MXP) - Malpensa

Bad Thoughts?

If you put “mal pensa” into altavista’s translation page, and click on Italian to English, it gives you a rather unreasurring “badly it thinks” as it meaning. I know this because yesterday I had a day off work, I’d been to the gym, I’d been shopping, I&#...Read more

Reviewed Johnsons Baby Shampoo

''Honey Honey''

My hairdresser told me, ever so kindly, that my hair was distressed (due to too much swimming and ten years of gunk for dancing exams and shows) and that I needed to change shampoo. This was nothing new. Almost every time I get my hair done, the person snipping away tells me this. First it was &...Read more

Dance, Billy! Dance! You Go!!!!!!!!!!!
Billy Elliot Movie

I know what you mean about the accent thing - Yorkshire is hard even for some Brits (like me - and I only live ~ 1 hr from the county border).

Reviewed Manchester, UK (MAN) Airport

Full Of Common Northeners

I live up north. Don’t feel to sorry for me as it’s not that bad. I have to state the fact though, so you can understand why I use this airport. As I said, I come live a h*ll of a distance from Watford gap and have done for many many years. Living in Manchester itself now means that ...Read more

The Town Which Cannot Apostrophize

Salzburg, literally Salt castle. Quite a step away from the sand castles I grew up with in Blackpool. .... What to see Salzburg is a great little place, with the emphasis on the little. It’s wonderfully compact which means you can walk everywhere – no shelling out for taxis or ...Read more

Reviewed Vienna, Austria (VIE) - Schwechat

Size Does Matter....

Vienna was the first international airport I flew into (when I was 8), and the last one I flew out of (when I was 19). In between though, I’ve used 10 or 11 others for arrivals and departures, so I do have something with which to compare it. Seeing as this is an opinion website, this is...Read more
