Sane, sorted and switched-on guy, enjoying life in Brighton. I run my own small business, perform as a stand-up comic and enjoy my garden. I live with my partner (who I met on Out many moons ago) and our dog. I'm as likely to be tending the garden as pounding a dance floor, or to be in a suit as in my leathers. Aren't contradictions wonderful?

2xistThu 03/01/08 12:31		My partner and I are heading to Lisbon for a long weekend in a couple of weeks. Never been there before so wondering if anyone has any recommendations for things to do, places to go, places to eat etc?
roystieThu 03/01/08 12:42		there are actually tons of places - head for the Bairo Alto area of Lisbon where the huge night life exsists - everything is there from cool places to eat to gay night clubs all really nice - all of it is based in the Bairo Alto. For other things such as sight seeing there is Sintra, and a bit cold this time of year but beaches are nice such as Cascais and Cost Da Caparica.... I guess anything else just ask You can tell I lived there lol xx

The cute little yellow trams were built in the 19th century are very similar to san Francisco's street cars. They also handle Lisbon's steep hills like mountain goats. They are great fun. The Alfama is the old moorish quarter of Lisbon. It is a labirynth of narrow streets and alleyways covering several hills.

midstaffsmanThu 03/01/08 12:58		Catch the local train out to Belém to see the Torre de Belém, the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos and the Monument to the Discoveries. The Castelo de São Jorge in the Alfama district - great views to the rest of the city The Calouste Gulbenkian foundation if you're into Museums Parque das Nações – the Park of Nations - if you like modern architecture - Santiago Calatrava's Estação do Oriente is amazing Enjoy - it's a lovely city
