What a wonderful story, and typical of German hospitality. Hopefully your friends can make it over next season, and if they do you might want to show them The Evening Star, where my mates left a couple of HSV stickers on the wall in the gents!

Trust me, the German boys know every decent pub in Brighton now!

If you go to The Welly in Shoreham, you'll see a little game that myself and Attila play, of the HSV and ST Pauli sticker game.....

Attila and Jens, although opposite sides, love chatting away, over beers, which is fantastic, seeing as Attila speaks fluent German.

It really is a great and true story, of where, because of football, life lasting friendships have been made all around.

I'm not a prolific air traveller but Mrs V has teased me out of the UK a few times, I've only flown Easyjet 3 times so really its a top 2 destinations for me as the third one is Malaga !

1, Madeira, lovely little island but the airport is on the SE of the island on top of scary cliffs and to get from the airport to Funchal, the main city, you have to do a zig zag winding bus trip along sheer cliffs.

2, Malta, Just lovely, nice comfortable airport landing. A bit depressed to see that the Germans have achieved what they could not do in 1940-1942 and that is to actually gain a foothold on the George Cross Island, they did it dead sneakily though, by building a Lidl on the outskirts of Valleta.

My German boys don't like Lidl, calling them Bavarian b'astards.....:lol:

Well, they are better shopkeepers than us,and, on my wages Lidl/Aldi is a necessity rather than a choice.

Yep, I love Lidl. It's a regional thing there, a bit like our North and South.

Like ourselves, it's gentle joshing, but they love each other really.

I'm sorry, I've never done easyjet.......yet!
Might try the short city breaks next year to make up for lack of foreign travel this year.

Spend much of the summer in SW France and my airport of choice is the Chinese sponsored (I think?) Toulouse

Changed so much from 25 years ago

Before a domestic airport,now an internatonal one

The Chinese are buying quite a few vineyards too

Time to stop pretending we can be using planes like buses without consequences.

Hopefully we'll see a change now, and will never get back to the absurdly cheap air travel, based on tax free fuel and a failure to price externalities.

And instead see more investment in decent, well priced train travel.

Who cares about the planet when you can get p!$$ed for next to nothing in a foreign country? ???
