Later I can always express surprise that there is a football match on one night. Worked the last time we went to Europe which ended with a disappointing night in Vienna. But we are a better team now. I’m hoping this means you are retired now and had a job back then, and not that you literally were in work during a European final Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenose244 2,618 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 The Spanish are anal as fuck about covid so in an ideal world I'll fly to Portugal then drive over the border, if all else fails I'll just drive my own car... I'll be there! Assegai 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure they have it in your neck of the woods (genuinely no dig) but if you have supermarket with a Photo Booth you can get your picture taken and they give you a code. You use that online when you apply and send your old passport away. I was probably less than 2 weeks. What the fuck’s a photo booth? I’ve hired the local photographer to take my picture for me MisterC and Clemdog 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanFerguson2013 396 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Just realised I have loads of BA air miles so there might be a way to go via London without spending too many hundreds. I'm not too bothered about a hotel for the night but probably Malaga or even Faro would work. Faro depends on getting a bus back there after the game. Car hire works too but then a drink is out for the driver. When I went to Barcelona in '72 it was a same day charter flight. Fell asleep at work the next day.

I am working hard on Seville but so far she shows little interest. I shall wait and see what happens against Red Bull before putting my foot down. .Williamson. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
