Meenzer 13971 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Afternoon all. 👋 It's all quite intolerably lovely here on Gran Canaria so I'm off to find a dark cavern of a pub to watch the match in. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 13971 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Cheers boys. And yes, Eurovision week beckons. As payback for spending 10 days in this living hell, I'm having to watch the match on Bein Sports. 😬 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17623 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I went to Gran Canaria back in '94. Funnily enough, the two adjectives that sprung to mind were "German" and "Gay". Loved it actually. Enjoy! (Despite the shite result). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 26606 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I spent my honeymoon there unaware of the gay and Deutsch bit until I saw two German lads playfully splashing each other WITH WATER..... WITH WATER ok? and I remember remarking to wor lass 'Hold my Hands, Hans' in an authentic 1960s WWII film German accent. We loved it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 3652 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Well. Me and our lass are off to Gran Canaria this summer, I’ve never been. I’m planning on proposing so at least if it goes wrong I can hit the gay bars for a bit of a fondle 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet set Willy was more of a sandbox game and didn't have levels. Your suggestion makes no sense. I genuinely loved Sky at Night with old Patrick Moore even though the guy was an old skool fascist racist right wing fuck nut. Ultimately that's irrelevant to the stars I guess. The other thing I've just remembered about Gran Canaria BTW, connect 4. Is that still a thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The presence of moneyed gays does mean there are some really good restaurants in PdI/Maspalomas though, which is unusual for a resort town.

PaddockLad 14527 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 The quality of European medieval “old towns” isn’t often at the forefront of my thoughts but it has to be said Bari doesn’t readily spring to mind for your average punter. It has to be said though that it’s utterly fuckin amazing etc and as an added bonus you can casually stroll into a gorgeous cathedral and get and audience with yer actual genuine SANTA CLAUS 🎅 at the Bacilica di San Nicola There’s also a statue of the fucker outside… paid for by one Vladimir Putin, who wanted to venerate the saint too. He’s very important to the Orthodox Church too, he’s patron saint of Russia. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14527 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Direct flights from Edinburgh and Gatwick, the city is an underrated gem, it’s just a pity my family are here to fuckin spoil it 😃 this shows THE OTHER CATHEDRAL…St Sabins..the locals speak a really weird dialect influenced by Muslim folks who invaded 1k years ago…the women make the orrichette pasta in the streets and let it dry in the open air…seafood paradise etc etc. well worth a visit, city break etc😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
