    The way he took a step then saw me, if I was a thin, little thing, I think he would have had a go at me like the bully he is but my size and height means most people don't try it

    Today's whine is a long one but I had multiple warnings about how terrible Manchester Airport is. Even yesterday I was getting texts, warning us to get here early and it's terrible Well..... Raddison Blu is literally 5min covered walk with moving walkways, which means we got here early. Scored...

    I'm guessing this bathroom use to be a shower of death over tub. They've since created a dedicated shower in the other corner and left original tapware placement high on the wall so while soaking in his sage and kelp infused bath salted tub, Mr Denali has to summon me to turn off the water once...

    Transit through US a good idea or not?

    With the shenanigans going on, where some are being refused entry for their social media or thought police, I wonder what are the long term affects after the current President is gone. Will these people be banned from re-entering for many years or that would be quashed. For the OP, Im...

    Made any travel mistakes lately?

    Returned our hire car today at Manchester and it was noted the rear parcel shelf thing was missing It was removed by the Liverpool rental employee on pickup, when he assisted us putting our luggage in and we assume Liverpool still has it. We didn't notice/think of it as it happened to so...

    We're here for three nights, as a wind down from all the driving as we've been here since April 29th. The plan was to relax, enjoy the pool and sauna, maybe a massage (for Mr Denali) but the hot tub brings me lots of comfort. I'm still sleeping almost sitting up in bed but I'm sleeping. I'm...

    We have an hour before check in so checking out the cool kids at the Manchester runway viewing platform. Lots of geeks here and families having picnics. Lots of tables/benches, viewing platforms etc. It's not my thing but I can appreciate it's their thing. We'll be back tomorrow for the concorde...

    Some of these castles are so hard to find. GPS was no help with finding this one and took us to two incorrect places, no signs pointing it out until you were in this spot and then you finally get a clue 🤣

    For all my hate for the shower of death over bathtub yesterday it was a small metal strip at the front door that had me come a cropper and after almost a day Im thinking Ive done more to my ribs than just feeling sore and sorry for myself On the plus side, Im not dead or in hospital so just...

    What cheeses me off

    The other day we parked in the furthest corner away from the shops and when we returned a stupid camper was parked so close to us I couldn't get into the car. Fortunately it was Glencoe Co-op and not Westfield Parramatta so the wait was not long but there was about 18 other spots they could have...

    Its not every day that you drive into the Scottish countryside and climb over a electrified fence to trespass onto someone's land but today was the day for this fat, middle-aged woman 😂. If they put this in the Historical Scotland guide book they could at least install a gate <redacted>
