In the matter of AyG vs rott this court rules in favour of AyG, case dismissed. Next! Bollocks. Santorini describes itself as being in the Aegean. So all this immature wind up garbage is beneath you lot. If the Aegean is the Med then that sea is part of the Atlantic. Ever heard of anyone visiting the Adriatic saying they are visiting the Med.? Well yes probably you gits have. It's a bit early for the cocoa but I might just................ That'll be bollocks your honor, if you don't mind. Take your pick as to which of the following you will believe, they all say the same thing. THE AEGEAN SEA is an arm of the MEDITERRANEAN SEA, located between the Greek peninsula to the west and TURKEY to the east. The Aegean is connected through the Dardanelles, the Sea of Marmara, and the Bosporus with the BLACK SEA, while the island of Crete is considered to be the southern boundary. geography.name/aegean-sea/www.britannica.com/place/Aegean-Seafindanyanswer.com/where-does-the-mediterranean-sea-meet-the-aegeanwww.worldatlas.com/seas/aegean-sea.html

Strangely I have never referred to the St George's Channel as the Atlantic, nor heard this from anyone else. Can't think why not. Oh yes possibly because I'm not a hairsplitting twat. Well sometimes I am. I am wondering if there should be a hyphen in hairsplitting. <duck> it, it's Friday.

There also seems to be some confusion as to it's name. Some have it it might well be Sianel San Siôr, or even Muir Bhreatan PS not only Friday but even Wan Mahidol and a holiday for me PPS Mahinol is pronounced as Mahidon. Same effect as in schoon

Ah yes the Mash, written by smug tossers for smug tossers as they more or less used to say about the Mail. Good luck to anyone finding Santorini in the Med, but that's stating the bleedin' obvious. Sorry. Yes there's only about 10 words and it's been edited four times. <duck>ing problem.?? Smug tosser gammon Mail reader reporting for duty. Excellent finance section, probably what p**ses off the skint remainers. They can spend the next 50 years busting a gut and dream of joining us. Has anyone seen Ronnie? The revoulution is only a t shirt away.

Ronnie may be busy looking for the announcement that he expected on Tuesday. Don't know if he didn't like what it announced or if it is subject to delay. That many statements I lose track, and the definition of "opening up" seems to change with each one.
Possibly he has gas central heating and is reconfiguring his budget.

There was an announcement...it all got pushed back . Doesn't bother me....I'll be in Thailand 14th Dec whatever bs they decide to impose upon me. Seven days would be an improvement and if I can do em in Hua Hin and wander around that's much better than the Bangkok bs. My airline changed my flight so now stop in Phuket first....which opens the sandbox as an additional option. A week at the Banyan Tree might be in order.

I'll be lucky if I get two nights in Madam Na's bonking bolt hole down soi 4.

I've only ever heard about such places from others and read about them in the tabloids, I'd never frequent them myself hence I have no first hand knowledge. Pure as the driven snow am I. In a previous life I did visit one such place but only fleetingly, I was doing a survey as I recall, for some good cause or other. My er, um companion and I entered the premises and immediately spotted what appeared to be a gynecological examination chair, replete with stirrups and nicely done out in bright red plastic. I wasn't expecting to see such a thing so I involuntarily muttered, "what's that". Ms Charming didn't miss a beat. Not wanting to admit the nature of the place she said, I think this place used to be a women's hospital, they must have left some equipment here. (swear to goodness that's true). Anyway, shortly thereafter I started to suspect something was amiss and I had been hoodwinked, survey complete I thought I would leave. This wasn't really the Marriott at all, there was no little note pads next to the phone with Marriott written on them so that was a dead give away. I decided to leave in search of more salubrious accommodation, alone.
