Re: Paris - the city of steps.
Well mi boss is off there this weekend so he might come back a happy cheery dude well here's hoping.
Shillelagh Dublin is nice but as with Weegieland Auld Reekie has culture, bars and night life that is as good as Dublin something fore everybody. Besides going to Glasgow and needing a holiday to recover shows how good it is.
G-man it seems more than a few around here have had a good time in Glasgow so will it go down as a recomendation from you as an ex resident esp. stag and hen do's?

Yeah I'd recommend Glasgow and it's Weegies any day over Edinburgh.
Edinburgh is a stunning city, with it's castle on an extinct volcano, and the views from Arthurs seat are to die far, but the people!
A more conservative, up tight people you'll not meet in this sceptred isle. For fun and frivolity head west to Glasgow and it's warm funny folk.
You can always go to Edinburgh for the day on a very good train service from Glasgow, and still be back in time for tea of a fried Mars bar and a wee dram to wash it down.

Re: Paris - the city of steps.
Lol, even the down and outs know how to party in Glasgow.
I had a high old time with some on a three pieces suite under the George V bridge, when I was walking home from a club. They were so nice they invited me to call again, and I did the following week.

Re: Paris - the city of steps.
Hi Floss,
I can recommend Berlin. An interesting mix of old and new architecture, lots of history, a bohemian sector in East Berlin, a cheap and efficient underground system some great bars and relativly cheap. Easyjet flights from Liverpool. Also the Christmas market in Leipzig which we visited on the way back from Colditz. Sells the sort of things you like... might even be a Slik cassette there!

Er.........no thanks, as you may remember my memories are vivid enough without the need of any new visual stimulation.

No pictures, but if you see the three peice suite under the bridge I'd be most grateful if you could bring it down.
It was a dark red dralon, if my memory serves me right, and quite bouncy.
