Missed at the time but had an interesting wee break. Bordeaux for 2 days first, then train down to Handaye in the border for quick change to light rail for San Sebastián. 4 days there then a day trip through Bilbao and the Guggenheim, continuing on to a night in Santander for flight home the next day. Kids and I had a great time but the Mrs wants something more relaxing next time.

Thats a lot of places covered especially with kids. Have heard San Sebastian is lovely . In 2014 we travelled to Split for 3 days , Dortmund for 2 days ( for the Germany game) , Budapest for 3 then Berlin for 3. Was absolutely knackered by the end but really enjoyed the various places.

In Morocco now. Its mainly just for relaxation and sun so not seen very much but we are close to a wee village called Taghazout which is interesting .  An old man gave me a row for taking a video. I didn’t even reallse  until i played the video back later and heard him saying ‘ no video laydee . No nice’ 😂’ I was only taking a quick video of the street he wasnt even in it. The folk are generally very friendly though.

This part of the board is a bit miserable just now , even the jokes thread has been defiled, thank god for the World Cup ️  
So I have bumped this thread from a while back to try and get some cheeriness introduced . One of my own threads of course .
My cheery news  is that I have been given 2 free tickets to see big bad Barry Manilow at the Hydro tomorrow night ! 💃  It’s not so cheery for Mr Tidy right enough ,  because its such short notice I am dragging him along. Anyone else going ?
My only concern is that the seats are right at the back of the top level so I might not be able to stand up and dance. I had seats there before, for ELO , and I felt a bit dizzy as its quite high.  It might have been from the reflection of all the baldy heads in front of me right enough as it was quite an elderly crowd. I imagine tomorrow will be much the same.

Any more cheery news out there ?

Hopefully the Scotland team have some Spiderman superpower and climb right to the top of your wee girls chart !
Its great to actually be properly excited about a WC for a change.

Part of me wishes I had gone over to the WC but to be honest, I am buzzing about watching some of it with my daughter.

I am a bit envious too , but tell myself that if we have a mare then I haven’t spent all that money, and if we do get through to the next round  I won’t have to go through the misery of having to come home at that point 😁 Glass half full on this thread! 

I really hope the team gives young kids like your daughter something to get excited about. I would have been her age in the early 70’s and still remember how exciting it was. If she gets into it properly you can go together one day 😊

Mind Dennis Pennis chasing his limo down the street waving a bed sheet and shouting “Barry, you’ve dropped your handkerchief”

At least Tidy should be able to see his nose even in a crap seat!

Just . He’s not been well but he seems to have recovered and can do this tour so yes , definitely a reason to be cheerful! 😁

🤣 I totally misunderstood the joke. I thought the handkerchief was for tears because his songs are sad . I need to sharpen up. 

I need some cheery on here or I will be forced to talk you through Barrys full setlist tomorrow .
