Arrived in Prague this afternoon. Ted Jnr and his missus landed shortly thereafter from Latvia. Great first night out in this lovely city and looking forward to some sightseeing tomorrow.

I’ve been looking at all options just to be there (I was there in Brussels with my late dad), but all were beyond my bank balance.
Savour every moment. Take loads of photos (I didn’t take a camera in ‘76). It’ll be a trip you’ll never forget. ⚒
I've yet to find anyone who took pictures in 1976, would love to see them

Been here for a couple of nights and it’s getting crazier every hour.

Head for the Old Town centre.

Touched down in Prague shortly before midnight.

Apartment - home for myself and UtJ Jnr until Saturday - feels very "cold war". Three floors up and no bars or guards on the windows - H&S would have a field day here.

Off to find some fellow Hammers in the morning.

Enjoy Hammers!
From my time in Prague years ago, there is a magnificent old pub/brewery dating back to the 1400s in and around the Old Town if I recall.
Living vicariously through all your photos/videos and the like from afar.
So excited for this.

No ticket, no accom, just the bag on his back
Missed his connecting flight through a delay and has had to fork out another £130. Currently in Antalya waiting for the next Prague flight which is in 6 hours :angryred:

Fortunately he’s met a few WH who are in the same situation so at least he’s not on his jack :crest:

BA allow for free flight changes on the day for the same route so now on the first flight out to Munich, will then get a train into Prague this afternoon instead of tomorrow lunchtime so can join in the festivities this evening. Munich hotel non refundable and need to find another one in Prague but at least I’ll be there today.
