Weekend Away with the missus (POLL)

[Samdy Gray]

I clicked Prague before I read you've already been.

Still, I'd go again. So much to see. And you can get yourself some STFC russian dolls from the shop just off Wenceslas Square.

[Highland Robin]

Florence would be my choice....but then its not me going!!  Wouldn't be thathot in June; the frustration would be only being there for the weekend....and there is so much around Florence as well as in it.

book in to a travel lodge, give her the bet 20 seconds shes ever had then take her out for dinner at a hungry horse,
then finish up at gala bingo, splendid

[Morgan Freeman]

I would recommend Valencia, lovely buildings there and friendlier locals than other places in Spain. Walking along the former river converted into one long park through the city is great. Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia at L'Oceanografic is a must see. Of course the Mestalla stadium is a sight aswell.

That'd be my choice, apart from any of the Swiss cities but they're some of the most expensive places in the world.

Rome is one of the best cities i have been to, you never run out of things to do or to see. There is history everywhere. Even the buildings that are shit are absolutely amazing.

It can be pricey if you eat and drink right in the centre by the Coloseum (spelt wrong im sure) but it gets cheaper with just a short walk.

You can fly Bristol to Ciampino with Easyjet too.

Other - Krakow - or Florence

[Hexagon]

I'll second Oslo.
Such a great place. Had a very good time there last year.
Also the football season will be in full swing, so you can pop along and watch a Vålerenga game. Tickets prices are actually cheaper than a Swindon game.
Although everything else is more expensive over there.

Stockholm

Florence will be hot and full of americans.... went to Pisa last year in May, weather was great and it was surprisingly quiet which wasnt a bad thing. Equally with Pisa you can also go to Lucca if you fancy a bit of Culture, or Viareggio if you fancy sea and beach!

[Peter Venkman]

Other......Brussels, lovely city, good beer for him, good chocolate for her and good chips for you both

[A Gent Orange]

Out of that lot I've only beento Vienna and it's pleasant - all cake and palaces. So really i'd say Berlin which is just fascinating as it sits at the centre of all 20th century European history. And has good beer and public transport.

[shady]

My birthplace Berlin is a good call but not much romance there. I'd definitely put the thumbs up to Galway, far better than Dublin  . Dubrovnik, Croatia too.

Lord Byron was not overstating the matter when he proclaimed Dubrovnik ‘the pearl of the Adriatic’. Dubrovnik is clearly special. A magnificent curtain of walls surrounds marble streets and baroque buildings that exude a pearly light in the Adriatic sun. The main pedestrian thoroughfare, Placa, is a melange of cafés and shops with outstanding monuments at either end. Churches, monasteries and museums ornamented with finely carved stone recall an eventful history and a vibrant artistic tradition. Beyond the city is a heavenly landscape of beaches, wooded peninsulas and a sea strewn with lush islands.

I'd go for Madrid, Milan or Rome.

Madrid and Milan are quite small, plenty of culture and there's really nice nightlife in all three cities. I found Madrid to be one of the friendliest cities I've been to and it's just nice to wander from bar to bar. The Navigli in Milan and the Trastervere in Rome and most of the centre of Madrid are all areas for a cracking night out.

[shady]

Lived in Madrid for three months and echo that sentiment: very friendly people, conversational and welcoming

[SirWinston]

Bruges is well worth a visit.  Lots of canals and very nice to walk around.  It's only an hour and a bit the other side of the channel if you would prefer to drive somewhere.
