Morning tumblespots. Hope you didnβt get too wet last night?
We went to Riga just before Christmas and I really liked it but it was FREEZING! It would be nice to revisit in the summer. Thanks for posting
Good to hear that you enjoyed the trip. Best of luck for a win gerrykelly25. The rain keeps moving slightly further away, (the further the better as far as we are concerned!) it's now due at midday but we have one roofer up there at the moment and it's relatively sunny at the moment...
Thank you for posting tumblespots. Great competition. I've not been before, so this would be a nice holiday to win
This does seem to be popular, I haven't been there myself either but then I haven't travelled too much at all really. Good luck ACR
Nor me, but I want to see the photo's when you get back (How's that for optimism?) Good luck ivenailedit
