    Flippin heck, you men are a hard lot to please :!: :shock: :shock:

    Right, so after a quick stop in Istanbul for Peter, we're moving on to Italy. Peter, you don't have to eat pasta or pizza in Italy. There are other things, although I think you are missing out on two of the pleasures of life.

    Next stop is Sorrento, staying at a luxury hotel overlooking the Bay of Naples with Mount Vesuvius in the distance.( one of the most beautiful views in the world )

    Hi Pamie

    I can understand your confusion. I'm the tour guide and even I'm not quite sure where we are from one minute to the next :lol:

    Anyway, hopefully we'll be in Sorrento tomorrow :grin:

    I would have to disagree, the worlds best Fish & Chip are from the chip van in Tobermory (some of you will know it as Balamory) on the Isle of Mull, Prince Charles diverted his boat to Mull to get fish and chips from the van :)

    They may be the best,but would be cold by the time I got back to Kent.Will stick with the 'Gaslight' chippie in Faversham......... :grin:

    Look I am getting dizzy - driving round and round in circles. Can you please tell me WHERE THE **** AM I GOING!!!!

    Sorento, Istanbul, Mullagatawny, or outer space. Will you please let me know soon. The Magic roundabout is getting boring now.

    Zebedee is on his way - mind your heads he has hold of Ermintrude.

    Oh dear Rehab you know what happens when birds fly over head. Why on earth did you look up as a cow is over your head??

    Aberdeen from Anstruther the only thing is the same is that they both start with A, that a massive change, good luck even Brechin on a Saturday is far to busy for me lol, unfortunately I have to go the city of Granite for shopping tomorrow, but just the outskirts Phew :)

    Take care

    Pete :)

    My Dad was in Italy during the war too, Elizabeth. He loved the country, and taught himself Italian. I was brought up to love all things Italian, and I still do.

    We're going on a trip to the island of Capri today. Take the chairlift at Anacapri and see the spectacular views from the top of the mountain, or visit the gardens at Villa San Michele, one of the most beautiful gardens in the world.
