I’m no expert but you’re probably underselling yourself

Somewhere near Lagos?

Mullach_Ide · May 9, 2018, 8:46pm

Yep, nice area.

The beach at the east end of Alvor where you take a lift down from the cliff top is one of the finest I have ever been on.

About eq.€8.

Horsebox · May 9, 2018, 9:04pm

It’s beautiful. If you are a fan of seafood you are in heaven down there.

Appendage · May 9, 2018, 9:09pm

I was in Lagos once. It’s not Faro away at all.

carryharry · May 9, 2018, 9:18pm

Tis off my list anyway.

Ambrose_McNulty · May 9, 2018, 9:32pm

White flags?

Raylan · May 9, 2018, 9:37pm

In fairness they were waving their own flags when they ran away this evening

How much was that, 54 euro?

Can’t recall offhand but Fooley posted the menu up earlier.

As an infrastructure finance specialist I must say I was very impressed with the Harpa building. It makes Dublin’s convention centre look very inferior.

That’ll put all the wankers saying it was a gloomy lifeless empty place right back in their boxes!

I never thought anyone could make @KinvarasPassion’s holiday in Clondalkin look good but @Bandage has somehow managed to do it here

Bandage

After our respective economic crashes and the quips about “Reykjavik on the Liffey “ can you post a picture of a tall crane to give a degree of reassurance the Icelandic enonomy has turned .

Bandage · May 9, 2018, 10:43pm

Guys, I highly recommend Arnar Eggert’s Reykjavik Music Walking Tour. You’ll find him on all the usual social media channels.

Bandage · May 9, 2018, 10:49pm

Thanks for your query @Ashman. I was up in the tower at the top of the proddy church earlier and took some shots. That tall structure down by the waterfront is the Harpa and you’ll note some cranes down beside it. This area appears to be undergoing development.

Bandage · May 9, 2018, 10:53pm

Okay guys, that’s me away. My life partner told me to back to the hotel by 11pm our time so catch you all tomorrow.

I have really enjoyed your updates and photos, much appreciated. I was thinking of going to Iceland this summer, would have cost about 5k all in, I definitely won’t now. It was a toss up between there and Tokoyo but you’ve the made the choice easy.

After seeing those pics, I’d rather go to Courtown than Iceland.
