I was thinking about Ukraine, but if it's anything like the Baltic islands, word will get round very quickly, and within a very short space of time, it will be full of absolute w@nkers from England ruining the place, and making them all hate us!


Believe me, when I went to Vilnius, it was a lovely friendly plae with barely any brits, and I always planned on returning for a proper break, as it was beautiful! However, a mate went last year, and it is unrecognisable! Full of British stag parties, and very (understandably) resentful locals! :(

Yeah, when mrs mockers an I went to estonia we went during the week and people were incredibly friendly, by thursday night though we were being treated with suspicion (being a couple really should give the game away that it wasn't a stag do but hey).


We got the bus to Russia friday afternoon and we could already see them all rolling up and i felt so sorry for the locals.

As you know I lived there for a year, the first 3 months in the barbizon palace on zeedijk which is basically in the red light district.

I can assure you it's not just the English who should hang their head in shame (or more commonly to puke up, or stare at their bits as they piss against a wall). Every member of the British Isles was well represented. In fact the worst behaved were usually clad in a Celtic shirt. That's not a scientific observation just a very experienced anecdotal one.

    • What Firkins were they? The only localish ones I remember were the Phoenix and Firkin and the Fox and Firkin. The Plough has changed its name several times, and then back to the Plough, but to the best of my recollection the Uplands Tavern was named that until it became The Actress, and The Bishop was called something else whose name escapes me (though the smell from the gents lingers in my memory) but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a Firkin?
    • These statements were in the Consultation Findings report published (later than promised) just before the licence was granted:  "The site hire fee goes directly to supporting the delivery of the council’s Events service, which supports the delivery of up to 100 free-to-attend community events per year – please refer to section 1 (Licensing and income)" I've drafted an email to request some more details of these "free-to-attend" events, as "up to" is a fairly meaningless description - could be 100, could be none? - and therefore doesn't help anyone to decide whether it is actually a benefit to the community or not. Even if it is 100, I'm not sure I could name even one of them? "The site hire fee goes directly to supporting the provision of a grants fund – the Cultural Celebrations programme - please refer to section 1 (Licensing and income)" A similarly meaningless statement in terms of gauging whether, or how much, this is a benefit to the local community. What is it, what does it do, how much of the fee goes to it? And how can the fee go "directly" to two different things? Surely, "directly" means without deviation, straight to, without being changed or reduced?? Again, I'll be asking all these questions to the events dept. I find it outrageous & insulting that a public body can try to justify such an intrusive & disruptive event with such flimsy and opaque "benefits", with zero figures or details to quantify them. They may as well not bother with a consultation, just say "Look, we can't be arsed to justify our decision, it's happening so just deal with it".
