Dingle in Ireland fantastic when the dingle races is on
Berlin when the wall was up. The history and place still standing in 1971 were amazing/
6 years living there, my son was born there and I met people who are still my friens
I also met Rudolf Hess there. The man was an asshole till the day he died, but again amazing history
Definitely the Isle of Wight. No Johnny Foreigners or greasers of any description.
The Maasai Mara and Lake Naivasha in Kenya,
The Rocky Mountains, Calgary and Medicine Hat in Canada,
The Danish islands,
Anywhere in Bavaria, Germany.
A few countries that I've been to are supposed to be beautiful now, they weren't so when I visited; Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia, Kosovo.
The British Army provided some great all inclusive holidays!
Mont Tremblant
New York
Chester Racecourse
Zadar
Cape Town with the Navy.
Same time we beat England in the Rugby World Cup 3 years ago.
All the South Africans supporting us.
I am at Kiev airport awaiting my flight to Belarus right now, the latter being the only independent European country that I haven't yet visited. Just sayin' :-)
Austria, ibiza, Tenby, Barry, home.
Plovdiv. Stunning place while still a bit rough round the edges. 2 litre bottle of beer in the supermarket for about 70p or £1 for a better tasting one. Meal out with the missus came in at less than £10 in a traditional Bulgarian restaurant.
Perth, Western Australia
I live here! (in Singapore). Wanna come round ours to watch the Chelsea game?
"How on earth did you get to meet Hess"

Southern Utah.
New York, London, Paris, Munich. Everyone's talking about pop music.
When he was sick he was escorted to the British Military hospital for treatment where they had a whole floor (called men's medical) clear all the time just for him, with his cell ward right at the back.
We used to do close protection on that floor to prevent him being sprung by neo-nazis. A company of infantry did the external perimeter cordon. This also meant escorting him when he exercised on the hospital roof, which had a 12 ft chain link fence all round the edge of it to prevent him topping himself. given a choice I'd have let the shite jump. He never renounced anything the bastards did and still revered Adolf till the day he finally did manage to top himself!! complete cwnt with everyone he dealt with.

Are you 100% sure he topped himself? There is a lot of info out there that suggests otherwise....
Toronto.
toronto and quebec
Tromoy Norway, Snowdonia , Ninian Park and Early to Mid 1980s Trecco Bay :ayatollah:
I'm lucky enough to have visited some stunning places in the world and have just returned from a cruise where we called at two places which are up there with the best. Kotor being the first with the latter Kefelonia. Having said that Krabi in Thailand is the most fab place we have ever been to. i'll never have any money as all mine goes on seeing this fantastic planet........life's too short.
Still on the bucket list is:
Lots of places in Canada
Hawaii
Barbados
West coast USA and parks
Alaska
and top is a return to Oz, having left there in 1977.
One Day.................................
Masai Mara is stunning and the harbour on the Greek island of Symi is beautiful.
I’ve always had great times in Bangkok and never felt under threat except for a birthday trip a couple of years ago when I ended up in hospital but that was my fault
The only areas I can think where visitors might feel in any danger are;
Khaosan for yuppie backpackers getting ripped off by the locals and the not so locals
And Nana when consuming too much beer could possibly lead to you making the biggest mistake of your life. Going back with a gorgeous girl to find out she has a pair of bollocks as well might be a life changing moment
Hampi, India.
Symi is a very peaceful, tranquil place to sit and chill and watch the boats pass by. I was reading a book recently about the SAS and there was once a serious bit of fighting there which when you see it now would never be thought possible!
Here is a bit about it on wiki - in the book it went into a lot more detail which was fascinating having been there and seen what a great place it is.
Dowlais Top, near Merthyr, is a wondrous sight especially by moonlight.
From a vantage point of the village's Spar shop one can admire a derelict public urinal and some abandoned tyres.
The park in Poole Dorset.Had my first shag there
