Suzan Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Even if it's cold and wet, it'll be cool! we don't really care too much about the weather, of course we'll prefer the heat and the sun, but it's not a reason not to travel in winter!so yes we are excited!and thanks Sid, we are looking for the hostels :)bye!

Bugsy Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Could you not find a boyfriend to take you to a nice Hotel instead of a Hostel, flippin' cheapskate. [Www][:D][:D]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprogster Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Save your pennies, as with the current weak state of the £, you will find Paris VERY expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerveilN Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hi!You are right to travel there, France is a so nice destination!of course a hostel is cheapest than a hotel, but may be in paris it will be more confortable for you to book a hotel, you can find some not so expensive and it is more romantic!I do not know lyon so i can not help you finding something, but if you have planned to go in another place, try "chambre d hotes". you are in a personnal house, the bedrooms are often more confortable and cosy than hotel (and of course hostel) and very cheap! You can eat with the family if you want to taste the french food and meet people. most of the time these persons like having people at home and will tell you what places you have to see.... it is really really nice! I recommend this kind of accomodation, both romantic and friendly!have a nice tripbye! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCliveMachine Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Anyone thinking about going to France this week/weekend may want to consider using a ferry with the latest ash cloud problem set to disrupt airlines! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clark Kent II Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I think that English may have evolved during the four years since the previous post on this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 [quote user="Clark Kent II"]I think that English may have evolved during the four years since the previous post on this topic.[/quote]But, CK, does "evolved" implies "got better" or simply "has changed"?Come on, language buffs, let's have your thoughts on this one?[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clark Kent II Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Evolution is a process without any specific direction. There may be many changes but the ones best suited to cope with changes in the environment will thrive. I blame it on mobile phones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 CK, that's not a lot of help because I think we established yonks ago that we both suffer from phone phobia?Had to ring a hitherto unknown Frenchman earlier this evening because, after he offered to ring me, I thought I was better off doing the initial ringing.Bon sang, can he jabber on! Anyway, at the end of the long phone call and after we had arranged a time and place for our rdv, he said, oh, I've just remembered something, exceptionellement, this Saturday, I have to be at the baptism of my grandchild and so I can't meet you after all!All I had to hand was a bottle of rosé and I don't even like rosé but, yes, you have guessed it, it was open in minutes and half its contents consumed within half an hour!

Cendrillon Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Talking of French holidays, Monday night aboard Brittany Ferries was not the best place to be. Rough sea like I have never experienced in many years of the Portmouth-St Malo crossing or any other of their routes I have used to France and Spain. They had two attempts to dock the ferry at St Malo and in the end we were an hour and 45 minutes late.Yesterday in Bordeaux traffic was totally gridlocked, definitely not fun and then with a subsequent missing of train(s) followed by a delayed, much later train home it has not been the best of weeks for travel. Never mind, I am still alive and kicking.[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
