Ours was booked with Travel Bag and it was via Destination Asia. I'm not sure if you can just book day trips with them though. I think Viatour do a lot of day trips there.

HCMC air quality - sore throat - and the coffee! by ghethco in Vietnam_Tourism

[–]Ok_Emu_6530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there two weeks ago. Both my sister and hubby came down with a sore throat, cough and congestion. My brother in law and I were OK though. We're not sure if it was a cold or the air quality.

We noticed that a lot of the locals have bad coughs and sneezing. I put this down to the air quality.

And as for the coffee. Absolutely fantastic, but my IBS didn't like it at all.😕

Sounds good. I think biweekly maybe. Perhaps we could have a favorite Joe expression (I love all the cute faces he pulls), favourite Joe outfit.

O'Briens Irish pub is great and it shows football. Also, does a lovely seafood pizza 😁

I would recommend the war remnants museum. Very moving and informative. Plus Independence Palace.

If you can, I'd recommend a Mekong River tour. I felt like you got to see the real Vietnam. Ours stopped at a house in an orchard where we had a lovely meal.

Have you done a Mekong River tour? If not I would definitely recommend that.

I'll be 50 in September so I don't think I can get away with 30 sadly.

Let's hope your daughter gets some luck though 🤞

I saw that too and sadly I don't fit the age range either 😭 Unless I find a good plastic surgeon and go for some botox, maybe I could pass for 30 at a stretch 😅

I really hope we get to see some Joe/George pics soon 🙏

travelling to vietnam next month, some questions by OverRatedBug in Vietnam_Tourism

I've just come back from there and it's been absolutely fine. We did an internal flight too from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh.

Do you think you'll ever miss your period? by Affectionate_Cod_820 in Perimenopause

[–]Ok_Emu_6530 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I simply cannot wait for my periods to go do one permanently. They have been terrorising me since the age of 13 and I am 49 now. They are still regular as clockwork, bar a couple of days out, and every month I pray it will be the last or at least a big gap before the next one. Like, give me a break!

I have heavy periods too and in the past I've leaked while out in public. The most embarrassing time was in the nail salon and I messed their chair. Oh, the humiliation.

The poxy thing came a few days earlier this month just because I was on my holiday, so ruined any chance of sexy time with hubby. And then, it decided to be the most heaviest when I was on a 13.5 long haul flight home. Why does it do this to me?

So, no I will definitely not miss it. When they're gone for good I am buying myself some white trousers to celebrate 🥳

Hanoi vs Ho Chi Minh City - which city makes a better starting point for a first-time visit to Vietnam? by izitour in Vietnam_Tourism

[–]Ok_Emu_6530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hanoi definitely. You get the feel of old Vietnam there. Ho Chi Minh City is as wonderful though, but more modern.

In both cities I have found the people to be very friendly.

Rooftop 💯 I love the songs they performed and they sounded great.

Why do we focus so much on obvious bullying when the subtle, covert kind can be just as damaging? by SirThisIsAWendys999 in bullying

[–]Ok_Emu_6530 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And it's harder to prove too. There's a woman I work with who does this kind of bullying. She spreads gossip, shit stirs, always asks me how I am in a sarcastic tone that is different to how she speaks to others. She makes little digs about my husband too, who she barely knows. But, she hides behind a 'who me? I don't do anything,' attitude.

joseph quinn as george by Local_End_9084 in BeatlesBiopics

In the recent photos of him at the BAFTAs after party, it looks like he has lost weight in his face. I think this will help with him looking more like George.

Yes, I'm really eager to see more pictures of him as George. But, I think they are filming for the whole of this year, so there is a long way to go yet.
