Congratulations from the addictedtotravel.com team to cdburness for winning the '9-day trip from Darwin to Alice Springs' competition. I’m sure you will join us in wishing him a fantastic time on the trip and look forward to reading about his adventu...
I have recently returned from a very enjoyable (if not soggy!) weekend in Dublin. Despite the rain, the City offers such a wide range of things to do, to see, places to eat, shop and oh yes..drink! Staying in the Temple Bar area was a good choice ...
Just a quick reminder that our competition to win a trip for 2 in Southern Morocco, will close in 5 days on the 31st August 2008. Enter competition The trip covers the ‘Red City’ of Marrakech, the High Atlas village of Imlil and the old coastal fo...
Well I have just spent a very interesting day at Birdfair (The British Birdwatching Fair) in Rutland....and for once the sun was out! The show has a huge range of expert companies exhibiting many things including binoculars, cameras, clothing, books,...
I'm not normally one for the sensational headlines, but this certainly caught my eye. This morning a Qantas flight from London to Melbourne, via Hong Kong, had to make an emergency landing in Manila, after a 3 metre hole suddenly appeared in the s...
I travelled with these guys back in May 2007, taking a tour in the Northern Territory. The tour was great, covering off many places including Darwin and Litchfield National Park. The guide and vehicle were excellent, which really made the trip relaxed and enjoyable. I am looking to do the East Coast...
Hold onto your helmet on this one. I spent a great day out with the guys on the bikes, covering miles of farmers tracks through stunning scenery. Some of the drops from the tracks are not for the faint hearted and the hillside ascents get your heart pumping, but it really is a super experience.
I stayed in this hotel and just loved the panoramic views that it offers of the bay and ocean, from its location on the hillside overlooking the town. It is a nice 15 minute walk into town, longer on the way back up the hill. The rooms are fine, but not exceptional - but the hotel restaurant is supe...
It's giving me itchy feet - wanna get back.
If so, see you there!
Hi Colin, thanks for the information you sent me on Kakadu National Park. cj

Hi ColinI have travelled extensively, but fairly narrowly...mostly Africa. I visited the Congo a few times as a youngster when we lived on the Zambian copperbelt (Chingola, Bancroft - now Chililabombwe, Kitwe and Ndola). I remember in those days, people driving around in enormous American cars, Cadillacs, Buicks, etc. More recently, I have had a few trips over the border to some of the typical Congo beerhalls, where guitar bands playing the typical twangy African electronic sound are 'de riguer' (they also play a lot in Zambia). Great fun, the last one I attended, with an African employee of Schweppes, I drank all night but was not allowed to buy a round! Such hospitality!Before too much longer, I need to have a look at South America, India, the Far east, and Aussi/NZ...where does one stop? Africa, however, will always be where my heart lies.All the bestCliff
Thanks Colin... I joined here after a very good conversation on Saturday at the Desinations show (with Nikki)I'll make sure I get plenty of pics and a blog going.ThanksHelen
Posting the comment below again on 'your' page - not too sure yet who see what here but when I replied the last day on my own page I still hadn't perused who you were! Luckily I had no derogoratory comment to make about those I met at the H&L fair! Oh, and I am using the mousemat which invites the odd enquiry. Will post a story or two soon...Ta very much for compliment! Just signed on lately - met these guys, or picked up their mouse-mat, at the annual Holiday & Leisure fair in Dublin at end of Jan. That gives you an indication of how much time I spend on the net! But your encouragement might squeeze some ink on paper. Not used to doing that but apparently I chat a batter! But the spoken word oft does not tumble upon the page in orderly lines....
