Agreed. Although I have a friend I can stay with. Makes it a lot cheaper as accommodation is usually the killer. It’s my fave place in the world. I’d move there if I could .

Have done all the current Racecourse’s in Britain plus a couple that have closed, I’m about 5 short to complete the set in Ireland, and have done around 25 courses in France including all the major ones.

Have seen league football in 14 different countries and most of the big European teams play at home.
