    GAA 2016

    It's my gf's family coming over for a visit - they're from West Belfast so I'm going to say Antrim but I'm not 100%.

    GAA 2016

    Yeah mate, they show most GAA games so they will definitely have the final on. I've gone in there to watch the Blues before and been disappointed when the Gaelic gets priority! I've got family over from Belfast that weekend so I'll be taking them there myself! Sounds like a cracking weekend...

    Watching major events on a big screen outdoors

    I watched both 2010 World Cup semi finals in the main square in Prague. Brilliant atmosphere and cheap ale. It all went off between the Germans and the Dutch in some club later on though.

    Yes mate used the train quite regularly. Probably the easiest way to travel out there. As you mentioned in your other post the website is baffling but booking at stations is easy and English is spoken. Or you can pay a small commission and have a travel agent sort tickets for you. A word of...

    From the Taj Mahal you could head into Rajasthan and visit the Ranthambore National Park where tigers still live free. You can do safari there which was brilliant. I didn't see a tiger but still enjoyed it massively and saw a wild bear which was pretty cool. Also from Delhi you could head...

    Sorry mate was out yesterday. Unless the visa process has changed since, all I had to do was fill in an online form and book an appointment at the office where they went through form and took my passport. Three days later it was returned to me with the visa. As I say, may have changed...

    Long time lurker... Go. It's amazing. You won't regret it. Not a chance you can see anywhere near it all in a month but regardless, you'd have a brilliant month. If you have more time available you can get six month visas from the office in Manchester.

    Duncan Ferguson in M57 car crash, no major injuries reported.

    I was stuck in the ensuing traffic jam because of this and drove past the incident this morning. It was actually on the Knowsley Expressway, as you approach the lights/roundabout at the end. Looked like the Audi hit him at some speed, as it was pretty smashed up. Caused carnage in the rush...
