You're getting Bobbie mixed up with Monica Lewinsky :lol: :lol: :lol:

We were going to book a hol in Madeira changed our mind at last minute booked 7 day mini cruise Canaries/ Madeira/Morocco instead.

The very next day Madeira had floods, hopefully we will still visit.

We go Fri 12th

Go on the toboggan run that slides down the stone paths. Take plenty of 5p coins to toss at the kids on the way down. They'll throw flowers to you.

Hi Folks, I'm Baaaak :-) had a great time as usual, didnt take any pics, as still have some from the other times.
My friend and I hired a car for a few days, and travelled to different parts of Cuba, and stayed overnight in casa's, its great to see the real Cuba.

Enjoyed it so much as usual, have booked to go again in September with my friend, (pssst, dont tell the old man, I havent told him yet) :wink:

I'll have to work weekends to pay for it, but I love the country so much, I would live there tomorrow, I love thier police system, (they take no prisoners) lol, no smack wrists jobs for offenders, you feel safe walking down the street, no one bothers you, there is no mugging, burgleries etc, or if there is, its hardly any.
Ok, its a communist regime, but by god what a strict and safe country.

I saw a few locals get lifted by the police, and they are not PC lol, thier crime?????, talking to tourists!!!!, they are not allowed to mix or annoy the tourists, if they are talking to them any longer than 10 mins, then a police car turns up, no questions, just handcuff them and take them away.
Its unbelievable what the locals cant do, they are not even allowed to walk along side you specially in the evenings.
The more times I go over, the more I learn, its unbelievable that people are living like this.

Anyway, am still tired, catching up with the washing etc, just wanted you all to know I was still alive and fidel is still alive and kicking, raoul is still waiting to take over the reigns properly, if so, got help Cuba when the Yanks get back in.... so I will be posting properly soon :-)

I wouldn't want to spend my life living in a "safe" environment but in fear of the authorities :cb
On a brighter note: aren't you barred from America if you have a Cuban stamp in your passport.
