Sommerauer71: Morning Sir, where do you suggest I go...

Mossie bites are going slowly, thanks for the tip BTW.


Good to know...

Heq.....if you want hot and sunny for sure got to be souterhn hemisphere for Xmas....

I personally would opt for one of two choices.....

South Africa is incredible.....althou don't know the situation there right now, since it's been a while I was there....but still would check it out...Cape Town is more 'english' in feel, Durban is very asiatic, Johannisberg is very Dutch.....obviously within the context of being soooooo Africa......to discover

Or New Zealand......haven't ever been yet......but got the feeling it is a very balanced country with a chunk of territory designated as natural heritage parks, would be fine for my tastes.

Most of the exotic island holiday scenarios such as Maldives and so on are generally geared for couples rather then single people....so may be boring if alone....

My two pence of thoughts...

Thank you.

Is New Zealand cool at Christmas though?

Climate similar to the UK?

I think the Southern Hemisphere is the way forward.

I will have to start planning, South Africa is looking good at the moment, a place I have always wanted to visit...

South Africa is nice....but I'm not sure I would recommend Cape Town as a place to visit on my own...nit if you are planning to travel by car and tour around..

...if you want to stay at a hotel and do organised day tours, then fine....

imo

But someone said The Maldives is not for people alone and is it not quiet there?

I want people, not romancing couples, maybe I will go on a trek...

That may be the thing to do.

Yes, I am thinking that is the way to go, SA or Australia...

Now, I need to weigh up the benefits of each place, which one this year and which one next year...

I'm assuming that Bonkbuster is a derivative of "Blockbuster"...except instead of blocking, there's bonking....but I'm not quite sure....

Hi Phoenix,

yer just about right with the bonkbuster. We used to fire them at the rebellious Irish, they collected and sold them to the japanese, who hollowed them out and put the batteries in them and promptly sold them to the german woman called Beate Uhse and she made a fortune out them. He Hehead banger
