Its been nearly 5 months since the last mention of stag shanaigans, now i’m sure your wondering what I have doing in this time, quite alot actually all of which isn’t interesting in the slightest however, Nav eventually came up trumps, after his calling of being my best man and has come up with a tops weekend. Obviously that last sentence contains no facts, 90% of the organisation here has been done by Sarah and her best mates Husband, John.

So now what else has been going on in the last 5 months, as we start a new year, where most of us are turning 30 ( shudder ), I bet your all wondering ” Blimey im nearly thirty and i havn’t even seen Warsaw yet!”. Well fear not, we have arranged a weekend away in the Polish captial, and you too can fulfil your dream of visting Chopin’s birthplace* (he was the piano dude, his most noted compostition was the theme tune to the muppets)

What will this trip be like i hear you cry, will it be in some bargin basement 1 star Beko tele sylee hotel. Oh no! we’re 5 Staring it up, mixing with the glitterati. Accomodation will be in the famous Radission SAS Centrum Hotel**

Important Warsaw Facts
There are no licensing hours and many bars and clubs stay open untilthe last guest leaves. The minimum age for purchasing alcohol is 18 years. A beer costs around ZL7-12 (worst case £2.50), while spirits can be anything from ZL12 upwards. Admission to clubs tends to cost between ZL10-40. Door staff often insist that all coats and bags be left in club cloakrooms – for a fee of course.

Details
The weekend will begin on the Friday 10th of March and we’re returning on Sunday. The full cost of the trip including flights and hotels comes to a very reasonable*** £206.42 from the lovely people at Expedia (you didnt think i’d use lastminute.com did you ?)

* Well not actually visiting more like actually being in the same country as
** Most famous in a google for “Radisson SAS Centrum Hotel Warsaw” where you’ll find it comes first
*** should read “Up for it & can get permission”
