London

Postby Bocaj Claw » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:19 pm

Hey guys. I'm back from the London weekend that I forgot to tell you I was going on. I hit all the touristy locations: the tower of london, buckingham palace('s front lawn), the loo, Avenue Q, and the London bridge. Don't believe what the song tells you. The song lies with decietful intent.

The eight hour busride with a malfunctioning armrest was the only downer.
That which does not kill me, cripples me for life.

London is grey and has a bad accent. But I've never been for pleasure, always on business.

In what specific ways did this armrest malfunction? I am curious to learn the details of this particularly unfortunate occurrence.

Oh, and welcome back.
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

You mean "London Bridge" or "Avenue Q"?

Ah London, "the great cesspool into which all loungers and idlers of the Empire are irresistibly drained," or something like that.

Welcome back. :D

Meh. London was nice the times I've been there. Just never let your English friend convince you that it's a good idea to walk from Goldiers Green to Chinatown.
