The First Post !

Well, it's Monday morning here in Ireland, and our Bank Holiday weekend, so I'm on holiday. I've been meaning to start a travel blog for some time now, so here goes !

The purpose of this blog will be to create a diary of my travels, together with some hints & tips that I have picked up along the way ..... I will also dive back into my own photo and memory archives to publish some interesting bits about destinations that I particularly enjoy, together with the best ways to get there.

I must admit that I have been spoiled by travelling in Business (and even First!) class longhaul on occasions, so I desire a champagne lifestyle, with unfortunately a beer budget ;-). My hotel and resort experiences generally are good mid-range 4-star properties and I do enjoy finding particularly good value in such properties across the globe.

Anyway, enough of my rambling - let's get this blog on the road (or on the web!), and I will begin adding to it over the next few days.

Methinks that this will be a bit like golf - once you start, it may become very addictive!

Welcome to my world!
