Luckily when I asked the lad of he wanted to go on a gondola, he said 'we can see dozens everywhere, why spend €80 To sit on one' .
Trained him well.

Quick bump on this.  I've 3 recommendations to offer...
'Hotel Salvation' - An Indian film that is subtitled and probably way to languorous for most peoples' tastes but I absolutely loved it. No Bollywood silliness in sight. A whimsical and beautiful meditation on life and death without being in any way 'heavy'. A wonderful and remarkable film should you wish to see it.
9/10 Asa Asanovic
For the sake of balance.... 'Fury' - a bleak, brutal and visceral account of tank battalion deep behind enemy lines towards of the second of world war II. Directed by David Ayer, it's not an easy watch by any stretch but it is as an honest and uncompromising depiction of the horrors of conventional warfare without lapsing into morality tales. 
7.5/10 Craig Bryson
Lastly, just watched 'The Green Mile' again. I've mostly stopped watching telly as, let's be honest, 90% of everything served up is utter dirge, but this tale of prison guards working death row in a US prison set in the 1930's is a thoroughly compelling movie, if something of an emotional rollercoaster. Suffice to say it gets me every time. If you've not seen it, please do. It's a wonderful story and not one you'll forget in a hurry.
9.5/10 Charlie George

Funny you should say that, because I said the exact same thing; we want the finest wines in the world, and we want them here, and we want them now!
Went for the Tarqin's Seadog navy gin. Authenticating knee included.

I've had the Sunday roast a couple of times and it was ok. Bit slow, but the food was fine. Not sure about the rest of the menu. Mercia is nice, where the pic's taken from. 

Isn't that the restaurant in Withnail and I where Withnail "Demands some booze"?

Royston Vasey?  You’re not Barbara are you?

I’m sure I read somewhere that if the Union Jack (which is what it’s called on a ship at sea) was flying upside down, there was a problem on board, ie mutiny, the chef’s burnt the roast potatoes, nah, I made that last bit up, and assistance was required.
Could be a load of old toot mind.
 

You're always railing against something.
