I just didn't want to get pizza grease all over my keyboard. Mad

Though I really should go finish my school assignments rather than coming back here... Suspect

by Pettytyrant101 Tue May 14, 2013 12:49 am

Well before my lack of buckie leads me to a similar state of tearfulness CC I am going to crawl to my barrel. Good night dear hobbits. Try not to pass my post count by morning or Ill be very crabbit (and gobsmacked) about it.

by Eldorion Tue May 14, 2013 12:51 am

I have been similarly saved by online ordering before.

WHAT? That's the time most people go to clubs in the UK. the kebab places make a killing till at least 4am

by CC12 35 Tue May 14, 2013 12:53 am

I'm in the suburbs so all the clubs are at least 20-30 minutes away.

i forgot how bland american suburbia was Smile

by Eldorion Tue May 14, 2013 1:09 am

It's a little mind-blowing when one thinks about it.

I'm lucky to live on the fringes of suburbia so it's not very far to some reasonably large parks and wooded areas. They're still too far to walk easily walk to, though.

the french are to blame for that kind of city planning

although Napoleon III's Paris is so very beautiful

by Eldorion Tue May 14, 2013 1:17 am

I really want to visit Paris if my dreams/plans of going to Europe this autumn don't fall through.

by CC12 35 Tue May 14, 2013 1:28 am

it's a nice city but i'm charmed by the city of Oxford and the rainy quintessentially british weather x

by Eldorion Tue May 14, 2013 1:33 am

Yeah, there are a bunch of Tolkien sites I'd basically have to hit up if I came anywhere close to the UK, and Oxford is on that list.

Since meeting so many people from Northern Europe on this forum I'd be curious to go to Scotland or Scandinavia or somewhere like that I don't know if it'd be practical.

by halfwise Tue May 14, 2013 2:47 am

I grew up in suburbia. fortunately there was a railroad track nearby to break the tedium.

by Eldorion Tue May 14, 2013 2:48 am

Same here actually. I hear the whistles from the trains on a fairly regular basis. I thought that was the coolest thing when I was a little kid.

by Lancebloke Tue May 14, 2013 7:05 am

Are you looking to visit Europe for touristy reasons or something else bringing you here?

I have only been to Paris once... it was okay other than those French people. The outskirts as you come in via the channel tunnel is horrible. I wouldn't stray too far out of the main areas.

Madrid is okay too... they have a Michael Jackson impersonator. Will be visiting Barcelona in July so can let you know what I think of that.

London is cool... always lots to do and see but I prefer getting out to other places if I can... probably because I am there almost every day for work.

''don't you like.. get lost? whenever i am at a loss i go towards the sea, because the main road is by the coast, adn i can always see the sea. you know. fjords and mountain, not much room to flat out super-suburbia.
