European vacation - Page 8

!@#$%! · 03.10.2010, 02:33 PM

jeezus this thread has metastasized

not sure i can read it all

anyway it thought of this-- for the sake of science

go to italy

make sure to visit the vatican & get "blessed' by the pope.

the devil's favorite girl will sure catch fire-- but will the kid as well?

make sure to bring an extinguisher if things go awry

a bit dangerous, for sure-- but the amount & quality of data you could collect would be amazing!

How about a house swap? You come and stay in our house and we stay in yours.

That way you can be somewhere 30 minutes from Stonehenge and 40 minutes from London and I can rifle through your drawers.

we were told that instead of buying a package deal with hotel lodging included, it would be better (and cheaper) to stay at Bed and Breakfasts.

PLEASE RECOMMEND THEM BELOW:

part of the difficulty in choosing the right place, is that we are taking our son with us. I don't smoke around him. I'd say "we", but GG doesn't smoke much anymore.

I would much rather see the ruins in greece than those in rome (second rate rip-offs imo). I'd also like to buy you dinner, but I think the UK's winning.

I'd say don't worry too much, since everyone hates American tourists wherever they go, anyway.

floatingslowly · 03.12.2010, 08:27 AM

that's ok. I get lots of practice.

Arrived today safe and sound thanks. I do love getting a package in the post

.

I was going to take a picture but seem to have lost my camera

.

Why do you keep passing by here? Can't be for the KFC alone surely. Apparently they have it in other towns

.

knox · 03.12.2010, 04:45 PM

I had to do some work at bournemouth.

btw, i hate kfc.

girlgun · 03.12.2010, 05:16 PM

girlgun · 03.12.2010, 05:20 PM

I'm sure we've had this "discussion" before, but enlighten me. What is a biscuit in your strange world?

girlgun · 03.12.2010, 05:28 PM

like a scone, but not. definitely lighter and fluffier. delicious with white gravy. what's white gravy? no! it's not white sauce. it's fucking gravy.

gualbert · 03.12.2010, 05:29 PM

I've visited both of them, and I like them both.
But there's more to visit in Italy, and the food is better, and many people speak french or english (unlike in Greece, they only speak greek)

Your very own Okie rock! I'll have one.

The only rocks native to these parts are made of diamante.

!@#$%! · 03.12.2010, 05:33 PM

does england even count as europe? they don't make wine and the food is shit. that doesn't sound like europe. sounds like old-school 'merica, minus the dentistry, and extra verbal affectations.

save the money & stay at home & drink warm beer-- you'll feel the same.

anyway, try to have fun, in spite of your destination.

girlgun · 03.12.2010, 05:36 PM

pm me your addy, pookie, and i'll send one over (mwahaha). knox? you want one?

i'm pretty sure england doesn't count as europe, but we're going nonetheless (despite my dad repeatedly telling the husband i don't get to tell him what we do with HIS money)

It's basically unleavened bread by the look of the recipe I looked up. And white gravy is pretty much just béchamel sauce. Sounds bloody revolting.
