The shirt looks better without the latest fly-by-night betting outfit plastered across it.

There was nothing even remotely fly-by-night about Genting.

Just come back off holiday in Pefkos, Rhodes and in a cocktail bar called Rock Garden which also has apartments that you can stay in. If i go back i will try to stay there as these pictures prove is it has good taste there is something on the cocktail menu that is a must buy if/when you go there.



and This is what it looks like :-D



I stayed in Pefkos in 1996, can't remember seeing that then (mind you I was 12/13). I do remember Southgate missing the penalty against Germany in the European Championships Semi-Finals whilst we were there though!

@ Pauliewalnuts - You are a fine and rare connoisseur of Italy, I see!

Do you also know Portonovo, near Ancona? Beautiful sea and beach.

Isolaverde, Chioggia (Italy).

Isn't that called the derby of the lamp, or something like that?

Yes, because la Lanterna (that is a lighthouse) is the symbol of the city: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanterna_di_Genova
