Hard to say mate, the african countries were mostly real shit holes, but the people were fantastic, happy and genuinley friendly.

Singapore is the cleanest country ever, chewing gum is banned there!! to keep the pavements clean

Tokyo was a good visit, expensive to eat and drink but still good, although they spoke no english at all.

Worst place was the Andamen islands, an Indian colony, absolute shit hole, open sewars running down the streets, fucking horrible place.

Most places are good, we always manage to find a bar and have a laugh

And all at the tax payers expense

Spain - Not a fan
Belgium - Don't remember much about this one
Switzerland - stunning in the summer as well as winter
Austria - as Switzerland
Australia - 6 times between UK & Oz, loads to see and do
Singapore - another favourite but very humid
Thailand - dont bother!

Wales - Very scenic but rains a lot and full of the Welsh!
