les match d' EL Menzeh: 3 Dt , 5 Dt; 7 Dt , 10 Dt

with matches in sousse, sfax and monastir nearby inclding quarter and semi final this is only a couple of quid for games.

heres my choices... 7 days of the fourteen with matches so a good balance with other stuff.

Sunday, 1 February
Tunisia vs Guinea, Rades

first day there so i suggest hitting the pub to watch tunisia with the locals.
sousse has a market on sundays thats meant to be mad.

Senegal vs Mali, El Menzah
Burkina Faso vs Kenya, Bizerte

i fancy the senegal match in el menzah - excuse to check out tunis

both are nearby, sousse down the road, monastir near by train, i wanna go to both.

also it was 150 euro cheaper for the two week group booking - rather than just give everyone a tenner back we could use it for a night out / session ?

prolly not, it appears difficult to get veggie/vegan food in restaurants from what i've read in the Guide Books.
let's give it to charity: the earthquake victims or something.

looks like freddy kanutai will be playin for mali after all spurs said although they thought he was still french up till a few weeks ago under new fifa regulations that state you can still change allegiance after gettin a full u-21 cap ,so it looks like freddy might make the senegal match a bit more interesting.theres a good link here to all the english players who will be making the trip to tunisia http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/3342865.stm

Was out in tunisia for a week 2 weeks ago.

Heres a little info:

1 Euro = 1.49 Tunisian Dinar (in hotel)

the local beer comes in really annoying little bottles/cans. Its called celtia. You will easily need to buy 2 at a time.

Sousse markets is hassle. Well it was for me. They are mad for a sale and wont leave you alone. I was also pissed also off being called Swedish the whole time!

There was fuck all advertising of the African nations cup even in monastir airport.

The flight took 3 hours from cork.

Vegan food is probably non existent out there. Girlfriend is veggie though and she got on alright. 12 inch Veggie pizza in sousse cost 3 dinar. About 2 euro. Otherwise we had the buffet at the hotel which had lots of veg and pasta.
