Your words paint a vivid picture Neil, I feel as though I am then, then reality kicks in, thankfully I am not. Alone in a crowd!

Neil, your beautifully balanced descriptions continue to be an absolute pleasure to read and I've finally remembered to sign up as a subscriber. I think this hotel has confidently smashed down the barrier between "authentic" and abysmal. Can I sponsor you upgraded digs for the next three days (I have a bunch of spare reward nights)? Drop me a line at sprior05@gmail.com if that's of interest but no worries at all if not.

Definitely not a column to skip. I imagine it was therapeutic to write the madness down?

Hi Neil, another delightful travel email. I can feel your er, frustration (angrier words come to mind but I shall desist) at the anguish of dealing with airport security and bureaucracy . Be strong out there!

And regarding the hotel accommodation: perhaps try reading any of Dervla Murphy's travel books to her (very) off-the-beaten tracks destinations, for what she put up with ;-)

I hope the rest of the tour improves - for you and our team.
