My special london magic holiday

that sounds really fun. I'd quite like to be taken up the OXO tower. Will you take me up the OXO tower DJNC? It'll be my first time and it sounds like you're experienced!

Not on a first date....:lol:

Plus, Ill be in Ibiza....
 
I personally wouldn't spend 9 days in London, you'd get bored midweek!! Maybe spend a long weekend down here or something but TBH is it worth it considering you live in Oxford which is only an hour away from London anyway?! :?

You'd probably spend less for a weekend in Ibiza ;)
 
Every time I go to London it reminds me of when I was six working down the coal mine again, every time I picked my nose black muck came out!!

I agree with the person that said go to Amsterdam
 
i think the general consensus therefore nick is that you're packing your bags and going to ibiza. (the normal solution when someone asks for any non-clubbing related advice - i'm convinced one day that jessyg is gonna ask what shoes to buy and end up purchasing a package deal8O :lol: )

it's also about visiting my dad too. And I'll probably pop home to my mother's in dorset for a couple of days too as she'll get angry if I devote too much time to my father (not my fault he lives somewhere more exciting :roll: :lol: )
 
2 years ago, I debated with my other half about how we can't afford it....Then went straight on line and booked it....:lol:

It's like giving up smoking, as soon as you start talking about not having a ciggie, you go and light one up at the end of the sentence....:lol:

I have the same thing with food....Right, diet today...fast forward 30 seconds, someone walk in office carrying box.........Ooooh cakes, is it someones birthday...yum, yum....:lol:

Addictive Compulsive Disorder......

Book Ibiza and stop denying it....

Beck,

You can't get bored in London if you go as a visitor or tourist. There's so many cultural, shopping, walking and more touristic stuff you do that you can't get bored.

But I agree that living so close to london it would be better to go more often instead of spenidng 9 days considering how expensive it is

see it's not a full on london sightseeing holiday - I've taken that week off because my dad will be off then, I'll be able to see my sister properly because I've not seen her for ages, my cousin (and other friends in london) isn't back at uni yet so I'll be able to see her, my best friends are on some kind of half term thing from their medical courses for that week only, and I get paid on the 24th of the month :lol:

Vinopolis - City of Wine (wine tasting :lol: )

oooh anyone give me the lowdown on this place? Looking for a venue in London for a Ball in October and this is one of the options I have been given to do a recce at......

Sorry - thread hijack!!:oops:

Also, last time I was in London (Feb 06) it cost us £400 and that was with free accommodation, free train tickets and free entry into the club....... but maybe I am just frivolous with money.....

Yup... it's quite good actually. They have a gin section as well as wine and an Absynthe bar!!! It's a bit pricey though. Hire fees are really high for the number of people you can get in for a function, but they do have a nice wine bar at the entrance and a good restaurant as well that you can hire out if you don't want the exhibition space. But to go though the Museum and the wine tastings is good fun... they usually have really nice wines to taste and you can buy extra tastings for cheap so you're p*ssed by the time you finish. I've been a couple of times and always enjoyed it!
