I know this is off topic but I just had a bunch of 20 something british girls here in the states as camp counsellors visit the center. Not so disliking the brits at this moment.

Not today but I have had a few named Lucy. Why? Do you have friends or family in the states doing the camp counsellor thing?

Go buy about 12 liters of vodka and a couple of cans of coke.

Should keep you going for an evening.

Very possible, were about 2 hours from NYC with camps in New York state, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. We get counsellors in there early 20's from all around the world.

I can't believe someone didn't ask yet. :colbert:

Pics?
 
I think it makes sense, there used to be these two buildings, Energy Centre, and Media Centre. I'm guessing the Energy Centre probably had a nuke plant in it, it melted down, the building started leaning towards the media centre. They said bloody hell, screw this, left it that way and built ramps to go from building to building and treat them as one. Guessing there was a split in the middle which explains the A and B floors. You need to get on elevator A to get to the A side and elevator B to get to the B side. Bloody hell what a mess.

I have noticed that these counselors seem to have infection transmission rates that suggest an increase in intimate exposures. Lets say that when they come to the US, they loosen a few ties.

I think you'll find they were fairly loose before they got there.

Is that a general statement about british youth? If so I think we will see a mass immigration of AT:OTers to the UK. Actually they seem a rather nice and polite bunch of young people, but behind those cabin doors things must change. Sadly, I find myself to old and to married to venture over there.

British youth does indeed seem to have an unseemly amount of fun, the little tykes.

You should go see what big square is like in Newcastle on a Friday night. 😱

1. You're not, the people delivering are, why do you need to know? If you need to know, google it.
2. It does, it's in London, it also doesn't have the country or county listed is that a problem?
3. Lots of people hate things they know nothing about.
4. In America I've seen addresses like this:

123 Road Name
Zip Code

Not confusing at all, just more concise.



My house has a name not a number. No snobbery, it's common.

When I was at work I dispatched something to:

Galifrey
Cambridge
CB12JH

Or something like that.

Amusing image, but why would you want to kill me based on that post?
