I took Mrs Clint to the Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton to see us gubbed 2-0, courtesy of a Paul Peshysomethingo brace, on our honeymoon. Twenty odd years later she still hasn't hoofed me out.

hughes18 Report post Posted December 22, 2017 My girlfriend's been wanting to go on an animal-themed holiday in Costa Rica for a while. Not sure the GAWA on their jollies were the animals she was thinking of though. Gatwick-San Jose return (outbound direct, return via Madrid) is £512 on dates I've looked at. Heathrow-Madrid-Panama City return on same dates is £470. £160 looks to be the going rate for a return from Panama City-San Jose. An interesting Christmas dinner discussion awaits. Will there be any squares for us though? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eightball Report post Posted December 22, 2017 I have a big birthday at the start of May. I've tentatively suggested to Mrs Eightball that we could go to Panama to catch the game. I don't think she'll go for it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmcc_gfc Report post Posted December 22, 2017 Was in Panama in Feb this year. Cracking spot but the local beer is watery piss. Mind you it's so hot you will be glad of it. Usual central American deal, lots of poverty/ropey infrastructure but also a mad concentration of hotels and plenty of high rise buildings, the city is a big financial centre. Plenty of good eating in the old town, and can recommend some spots further afield for anyone doing more than an in-and-out. Canal worth a visit. All US dollars rather than the local currency (Balboas). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
