I liked the being at sea part; hated the ship part. Ships just do not interest me. The travelling does. Got drunk lots, saw lots of places...
I'm not surprised, you seem like the type that would enjoy seamen
Are you suggesting I'll take anything with a pinch of salt?

Cant you just for once accept that i might be a genius!! Or, possibly, that Ice has ridden horses all her life and has told me about it
But i did get dragged horse-riding in the Dominican Republic last summer (twice!) and it was okay, fun except for all the pain And that was Western style, which is a much more relaxed form of riding!!Yummmmm!!! I love Irn Bru
Almost as much as Mountain Dew (which they no longer sell in the UK )Mile-O said:

Did they say that you might get a little wet and then get you to ride your horse though waist high water? I went horse-riding in the Domican Republic (Western style) and that's what they did to us. Plus I got the psychotic horse that wanted to bite all the other horses on their arses.

Nope they didnt tell us we would get wet, but we'd kinda guessed, so we wernt wearing our best pair of trousers And we did splash through the surf, but i wouldnt go anywhere near waist-high water, even on a horse Luckily, i got the most sedate horse of the lot, which was quite happy to plod along behind everyone else (as was I, funnily enough!) - Ice of course picked the fastest horse they had and spent all afternoon charging around like an Indian War Posse
Which side of the island were you on??

I must admit, the idea of traditional English food (e.g. Lancashire Hotpot) turns the stomach.
Saying that, when I sailed with a Filipino crew, I saw some food that really did turn my stomach.
LMAO deep fried mars bar?! that doesn't sound right. 0_o
Yeah, there are some Filipino dishes that just make me wanna puke.
But most are ok, actually. =)

All I can remember is the name of the hotel, and that's because I picked on account of it being my name. Knowing myself as well as I do, I should probbaly have seen that as a bad omen. But it was fun. Got to eat a lot of goat and drink a lot of rum. And a few days after we left a massive hurricane arrived and destroyed most of the island. I think it was most likely the after effects of all that goat.phil_t said:We were on the south-east coast (i think
