Stag Summary

Ok, I'm not going to repeat what happened, word for word, but somethings need to be mentioned;

  • taxi drivers -geez, 9 out of 10 taxi drivers there all tried it on - before you get into the taxi, its best to negotiate a price first - only problem is that most of them wanted us to pay 350CZK for a 10 minute taxi ride - thats nearly £8.50 - and this is in a country where a steak cost less than half that. The worst one of all was the one who wanted £12.50 from our hotel to the central square - granted, it was the middle of night, but its a 10 minute journey! Don't talk about taxi drivers to Yang - he's like a volcano waiting to pop when it comes to taxi drivers!
  • beer - cheap. Beyond belief! 50p for a half litre of beer is just amazing, and its not a bad beer either to be honest. The great thing of all is that you can drink loads of the stuff without getting too drunk, and as far as I'm aware, there are no hangover effects either.
  • food - cheap too. Probably not a great place to go if you're a Vegi, but for a meat lover like me, its great.
  • lap dancing - wow! Enough said!
  • our hotel - absolutely rubbish! No aircon, wash basin was small beyond words (even a midget would have had problems using it), hard beds (a plank of wood basically), and the most evil looking receptionist ever.
  • my friends - brilliant. All my friends were just amazing and very much all up for a laugh - and laugh we did. Sure, we went to some scummy places, but we always made the best of every situation.
  • Gatwick airport - sort out your passport control please. What a mess!
I'm sure I must have left something out, but I'm still in a daze. Im just too old these days for 3 hour's sleep a day weekends. Still, big sympathy for Johnny - we all had a day off except for him. God knows how he survived!
