Learn to take your Mars Bars like a man! Personally, deep-fried Snickers bars are my favourite. More crunchy. More macho. Mike.

Red_Skydiver 0 #32 June 21, 2004 You could go to Sibson and take a look in the field across the road from the LA and look for my main! I lost it yesterday, it fell into the wheat field still in it's bag Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steph2 0 #33 June 21, 2004 Quote You could go to Sibson If you go to Sibson, you should visit Cambridge (only half an hour away)... It's just like Oxford, only flatter (and with worse rowers)!!! [cue Oxbridge debate with Vicki - he he he] Also, on your way up to Scotland, I highly recommend a stop over in York. It's my favourite UK city Have fun wherever you end up going!

Byron03 0 #35 June 21, 2004 Not to highjack Deuce's thread, but... I'm planning a trip to London next weekend for some RW (not the whole family, just 2 cousins). And if anybody would be interested in a night out for a good meal (read Guinness), and maybe even something to eat too, PM me and we can exchange phone numbers. I will be staying in Harrow, but most likely will be hitting up pubs and restaurants in the city. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mailin 0 #37 June 21, 2004 QuoteNo I have never seen a roundabout in the US. Is that the same as a rotary? if it is - come to New England - we've mastered them. Its rare to find a town (in Massachusetts anyway) that doesn't have one. You can always tell who the out-of-towerns are We used to call it our nascar track - going about 50 around it without hitting anyone was doing really good! Sounds like you have a fun trip planned, enjoy it JenArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deuce 1 #38 June 22, 2004 QuoteDid someone say ??? Count me in! Vicki I am tentatively staying with the Skreamer on my return leg, and he's talking liver damage party time. My liver should be stunned into nonfunction by the Finns by then, so party on. Who's up for some skydiving the 2nd through the 5th of August somewhere near London?

SpeedRacer 1 #44 June 22, 2004 QuoteNo I have never seen a roundabout in the US. We have them in the Boston area. They call them "rotaries". In fact, I was living in Boston when my girlfriend & I went to visit England (& Edinburgh, briefly). And it was weird how similar Boston was to London in terms of architecture & how the streets were laid out, etc. Parts of Boston have a very simlar kind of feel to them.
