Benidorm, is it really that bad?

[Diesel]

Well it seems I have to go to Benidorm (shudder) for a mates stag-do, despite my best efforts at persuading him to go somewhere (anywhere) else.

I'm expecting beer-bellied middle-aged yobs, spending their days greased up with chip fat and their nights fighting and puking.

Is there actually anything worth doing there? Or am I going to lose 4 days of my life in a complete armpit of a place?

There are good things about it - if you like full English breakfasts, the ability to easily purchase a copy of The Sun or English bars with LIVE FOOTBALL INNIT, you'll love the place!

At least the weather will be nice.

It can be pretty rough at night, but it's not bad in the day time.

Looks like Peckham, with sand.

Suggest Prague, if you have an inch of class about you, you'll probably be in hell in Benidorm.

God, that looks so crowded and horrible.

I haven't been to Benidorm since 1987, probably still a good place for a stag do though.

If you fancy a less "hectic" night out, check out the "old town" district of Benidorm (if it still exists ).

Sounds to me like you've already decided that it's not for you, can't you worm your way out of it?

 

[Sash]

Just use the money you would have spent on flights and accommodation and go away to Amsterdam.

Both of these have been suggested, and unfortunately dismissed.

Sounds like 4 days of hell.

Yeah granted it's not classy but let's face it - it's a stag do, and you will have a laugh I'm sure.
