Off on your Stag Do? Fancy a Lift?

Did you see the shocking story in the news last week? A group of lads on a joint stag do in Newquay managed to survive a 100ft fall after their lift plunged to the beach below their hotel. Can you believe it? Me neither. A stag do in Newquay! Of all the places, they choose Newquay.

Now I have nothing against Newquay. It’s lovely. But would you rather have a weekend in Newquay or a stag weekend on the Costa Brava, Spain? It seems to me that these lads were after some hair raising fun; why else would they plunge 100ft in a lift? Wouldn’t it have been safer to run our famous “Hunt the Stag” paintballing gauntlet?

We can cater for pain, but in a safe environment. Jet skiing, segways, banana boats – we have the lot. So don’t go looking for trouble. Come to me and I’ll give you trouble. Or if your heart rate cannot take it anymore, then we have fun stuff that is more suited to you! Catamaran cruises, spa safaris, cave swimming, hot air ballooning: you name it, we’ve got it covered. Not the sort of stuff you’ll find in Newquay every day of course, but typical of a Spain stag weekend.

So give Aunty a ring and I’ll make sure your Costa Brava stag weekend is as troublesome as you request...

Have a Walliams of a time on your Stag Weekend!

Who else saw David Walliams, the man famous for swimming the English Channel (or for starring in Little Britain, whatever you prefer), going out for a wild stag do with a difference this week? No? Neither did I. True, he went for a classy dinner followed by clubbing in an exclusive London hotspot with some of the top comedians in the country (and Natalie Imbruglia?!)

But is that the best he can come up with? I’m not saying I could do better. Well actually I am. Why not do something original and spontaneous? If he had come to me and said “Aunty, I need your help,” I would have sorted him out no end.

How? Well firstly I’d make him pack his Speedos and then I’d put him and his only gay in the village friend on a flight to the Costa Brava for a good old stag weekend in Spain. Then he could spend his days airing out the Speedos whilst swimming with one of my gorgeous strippers (you’ve not see anything until you’ve seen Aunty’s strippers). Or maybe a spot of quad biking around oh-my-god dusty mountain tracks would be more up his street? Or perhaps he’d like to shoot an arrow or two with a stag archery session? Or play real life Cluedo with a stag treasure hunt? Now that would be a good story for the papers, Walliams did it in the study with an iron bar. Wash your mouth out Aunty!

Anyway, whatever it was he wanted to do during the day, it would be unforgettable. Unlike a certain female stag party member’s pop career.

And what about after dark? Well I’d send Walliams wild on a bar crawl for an almighty session that would separate the men from the boys; or the boys from the girls. There is seriously nothing to beat Lloret de Mar stag party bar crawls! A special order stripper could be arranged, or his mates could come up with their own ideas on how to cause mischief. Whatever, Aunty’s here to make it all happen.

The point I am making is why not do something different? Even if you prefer the traditional handcuffed to a lamppost approach, then don’t just settle for a lamppost in a gloomy British town. Make it a Spain stag weekend with a difference! Enjoy plenty of fun and exciting activities to make it a real laugh that will actually be newsworthy!

Stag and Hen Weekends without the Handcuffs

I’ve just been reading about stag weekends from hell; they are all over the internet. I can’t believe some of the things that go on. And this from me, Aunty Andrea the Spain stag and hen weekend queen. I know my stag weekends can be outrageous, but at least they’re not downright stupid. Where is the imagination?

Dressing up as Batman? Handcuffed to a Smurf? What on earth is going on? Get yourselves over to Spain boys, and sort the testosterone out by getting involved in some proper stag weekend activities.

Look, Aunty’s home on the Costa Brava is only just over an hour or so away and it’s a cheap flight. And there is so much to do. There is no handcuffing to lampposts; no eyebrow shaving and no blindfolds. Well unless you specifically request them, of course.

What we’re saying is, Aunty’s Costa Brava stag weekends really aren’t your run of the mill stag weekends. They involve all sorts, from cave swimming and spa safaris to kayaking and treasure hunts. But if you want naughty, then so be it. Swimming with strippers, outrageous bar crawls…you name it, it’s yours.

Archery; paint balling; kayaking; hot air ballooning; catamaran cruising; jet skiing: whatever it is you fancy, get your order in. Forget the handcuffs; forget the blindfolds and as for the lampposts, we’ll leave those for our four legged friends.

Let’s get your stag weekend rocking with Aunty's Stag Weekends in Spain!

How Aunty Would do Simon Cowell’s Stag Weekend

Simon Cowell is reportedly being taken to London by comedy duo Ant and Dec for his stag do. Yippee.

I still don’t know which is which, but can neither of them come up with something a little more original? The guy is in lap dancing clubs every night of the week so ho hum, what’s different here?

What would I do if I was asked to organise a stag weekend for Simon Cowell? OK here goes. Let’s take him away from the boring Bahamas and bring him to down to earth and into rugged eat-your-weight-in-fish-stew Spain. That’s where I live and that’s where my stags love to enjoy their weekends.

I’d put together a Spain stag weekend package that goes something like this for the high waisted trouser wearer:

Stag Quad Biking

Let’s see how he gets on overlooking the mountain ledges; he might be used to custom designed tracks, but will the ledges of the Caldiretes Mountains leave him wishing he’d stuck to a PJ and Duncan style weekend drive?

Stag Scuba Diving

I honestly wonder what Simon Cowell would look like in swimming trunks. Actually that’s a lie; I’d rather not go there. But what would he make of a scuba diving expedition off my boat, into the crystal clear waters of the Med and having a peak around what lies beneath? I bet it’d be more interesting than a night on the panel with Piers.

Stag Deep Sea Fishing

Now this will sort the men from the boys. Will he cut it? Tuna, Marlin, Swordfish: what do you reckon he’ll catch when prompted to step up to the plate? Simon may well be used to the best fillets on his plate, but this time it’s up to him to bring in the catch of the day.

These are just a few of the stag weekend activities that Simon Cowell could be enjoying if only his northeast counterparts could come up with something innovative. And there’s more…visit Aunty Andrea's Stag Weekends in Spain to get the low down on what’s on offer to give your own stag weekend the X-factor.
