Looks like you had a great time. Brilliant photos.
Did you go as a big group? Who with?
If it ain't fun, don't do it

Travel with the same friends every year ; three bikes , five supposedly adults .
Mrs Bee had the unfortunate pleasure of meeting us all on the way back from the Channel Tunnel , apparently she’s still receiving therapy .

I thought you went via Plymouth just to avoid me
Great pictures. It looks like you had a proper holiday. Say hi to your friends from me next time you see them. They were really nice

Great pics CC. Wish i had done trips like that in the years gone by.
Calle Mayor in Madrid is very similar to your mayor, think all big city's have one.
We were on the Santandar-Portsmounth ferry yesterday (arrived 3pm today).
I have never seen so many bikes on one ferry before, all shapes sizes and ages (ditto the blokes and lady's riding em anorl)
Work is for people that can't play golf.
