    Holiday in Europe

    I will be leaving for Zurich for a holiday with my family in four hours' time. Just thought I might mention it in case you people miss me

    I will be on a tour of Switzerland, France and England, apparently. Visiting Paris and London and some other places which I have no clue about, heheh.

    When you pass Luxembourg, post me a note and I'll take you for a drink.

    What is so interesting about Switzerland, other than being one of the most expensive places in the world to buy anything and being full of people who have trouble understanding each other, let alone you (On account of having about 4 national languages)?

    Oh my god, that's probably the worst attitude one can have towards traveling (and other cultures, religions and people in general). I think I can guess what that country of yours is already ...

    I'm back! I did not go so far as Ireland, though from London I did have tours to Dover, Bath and Stonehenge, but that's all in England only.
