Haugesund, Norway (1 Viewer)

[guy of the tiger]

Ok, well I might as well post some info on this since I was there this December.


Ryanair fly to Haugesund airport which is in the south of Norway (so it doesn't have those crazy 6month day/night seasons. It's kinda near Bergen, but not really.

The town is pretty small, kilkenny sized population. But its nice, especially when it snows (which it did)

People are nice and friendly except for one guy who wanted to pick a fight because he thought I was taking photos of him. But you get dicknuts everywhere, so we'll just ignore him.

It's very very expensive. Don;t be suprised if your asked for 8 euro for 440ml of beer. We did wind one put that sold 440ml for around 5euro.

Even groceries are expensive.

thats it. was only there for the weekend.

oh, also if you make snowmen, dont let them out of your sight because they will be stolen.

was this coming to Ireland from the UK? They are completely not allowed to do that, he should complain.

Why have airlines etc decided to contravene previously arranged passport agreements between Britain and Ireland (i.e. you do not need a passport, there is free travel between both) in the past couple of years? What if you don't have a passport, and you don't have a drivers licence becuase you don't have a car? Nuts it is. So you can't travel freely as was intended.

no it was dover to france. No problems before that, but he did lose it on the train from london to dover. I might also add that Dover was the furthest (and therefore most stupid place to lose it) we could have gone without there being an Irish embassy, so he had to go all the way back to dublin to get a new passport. He also then left the phone off the hook in his house for the next few days so we had no idea what he was at. Nearly ruined that holiday he did.
