Perfect timing now those smelly sea dwellers have left !
I'll have green with a twist of lemon please π
oi, wonky scales! you should be so lucky π
LOL I'm not ruffled a bit, I adore company. Sit, stay a while. I'll put on some music and we can discuss things and giggle. The loo is through the kitchen and down the hall.

Well behave then !
i'll see what i can do -_-
I miss digestives with coffee in the afternoon.
that tea has the perfect amount of milk! that's how i like it-milk with a hint of tea π
tauruses' are good hosts π
Behave? Aries Moon says "No. Be as ornery as it please you, it's fun. Taurus says "Don't break anything"." π
LOL Like my mum with her coffee. I make it quite strong so it's perfect for her, she can still taste it over her milk.
That's it, as soon as I can manage it again I'm going back to England for another visit. All this moon-faced moping. Pffft.
oh, cool! which part have you visited before?
Crowthorne,Reading. π Then round Camden, London and Westminster.
I suppose I'd have to just say London since the two are parts of it, but hey ho.

camden is awesome! i live in south london though. or 'sarf' π where are you from in the states, vb?
Midwest, Indiana. Land of steel, farms, Indy 500, corn and soybeans. π
ah...i'd love to live on a farm for a bit. or even just spend the weekend on one π i think it would be fun to muck in, and see little baby animals being born and stuff...
It's terrific honestly. My mother and her husband lived on a farm for over 20 years. Nothing like it in the world. It's quite a toss up for me which is the more peaceful of the two at absolute soul level. By the waters side ( or in it ) or deep in the country with the smells of hay, fresh air, wood smoke and sunshine in me. Woods nearby a plus. How I adore walks in the forest.
I was a bit worried I'd stick out like a sore thumb in England. I was pleasantly surprised that I did not, quite the reverse. I was embraced fully, urged to stay. I was very moved when one of my mates pub cronies ( man in his late 70s ) stood up, raised his glass and said "On behalf of all of us, I would like to say you are a damned fine woman." *smiling* I was also offered two cooks positions by older gents.
ahh, paradise for a taurus...i guess it's a world of difference when you visit big cities? i always feel a sense of peace out in the countryside, or even in a park. it's just a completely different vibe!
places to roam, to explore...that's the dream someday i guess, to live somewhere like that π extra points if it has a body of water nearby π

come on vb, are you shocked? you're lovely π
and bless that little old man! how sweet is that?!
Big cities make me nervous, I'll admit it. π Yes, and walks in the forest there..it was wonderful. You can feel everything thrum and pulse around you. Not shocked by it, but was surprised I didn't have a neon sign on my forehead that said "Septic". π In Westminster I had to laugh, there was a gaggle of women, obviously tourists. The white trainers, large sweatshirts and jeans. I looked at my mate with peals of laughter and said "You're right!" He smiled into his pint.
hahaha! yeah, we love picking out the tourists. they always look so overwhelmed and optimistically dressed LMAO.
plus, they haven't learnt the london 'elbowing-people-out-of-your-way' ettiquette yet, so they sort of cling to the centres of the pavements and it's really cute π
yes! there is a definite 'thrum and pulse' in cities, almost as if everyone is marching to some unconscious beat?
Definitely! Everyone moved so quickly. He would point things out to me like the cut of a gentlemans suit that was fine, the buildings. I was absolutely floored by cost of living. ??250,000 for a flat?? What the ?! Parking. Everyone ramped up onto the sidewalks and so on. I loved it there. It felt like home. And I didn't even go that far outside of home base that week. Outside of one of the pubs a woman stumbled up to me and said "I'm not e'en gonna lie, I'd like a quid for a can of cider." I smiled and said "The man in the stripey jumper, he's the quid holder." And off she sailed.
oh yeah, parking is a joke! >_< they even introduced parking meters on my mum's road last year, residents have to pay...to park on their own streets? that's some bullshit! the cost of living does my head in.
love the honest begging! you can't really go wrong with a can of cider. and LOL at 'quid holder' π
LOL π You're right, that is utter crap. So's paying for the Beeb. π
oh my god yes! then they have the sheer audacity to charge for a tv license! luckily i don't own a tv, but still π

Have a quiet word to Bling - he can pick one up for you at the next riot.
LOL! evere, did you hear that? jump to it! *claps hands*
hahaha!! was it a space cadet shellsuit? or nike's finest? π
glad you made it out okay. but i don't know if we can be friends anymore π’ you dissed my soul brother, man. π unless you meant 'kurt nobrain' in reference to him shooting himself out of exisitence?
in which case, π
that looks a lot like my commo
**looks about suspiciously**

don't worry, i've called the pigs π
maybe that reference was as welcome as a hole in the head
lmfao ah man that was rotten!
it's not my fault if your scales keep banging together!
no swish sway here π
ROFLOL Snuck off to work and came home to this. NICE. π
Ever the gentleman. π
π
π Ta! One facet, and here's reality to keep me on the level.
LOL Yessss, I quite liked that. π
I'm sure the movie is absolute shite. LOL I just found the picture fitting. If you want a good ( and startlingly accurate ) portrayal of how bent restaurant industry is watch "Waiting" with Ryan Reynolds.
π It's funny and I think everyone that has worked restaurant can identify with a lot of it. Takes a special kind of nut to work that many hours dealing with the public.
