You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

No coaches run out that way?

I'm sure there are buses, but I don't know their numbers or when they run. I expect a stop at the Tourist Information Center before I leave.

IIRC, you aren't that far from Dunbar and the Bass Rock and such stuff

These sound like things I should see. Off to google too.

If I only had a brain...

It's 60 degrees in the house. I don't know yet if the furnace can be repaired. The guy will probably show up before 1.

I like Salisbury Cathedral. I need to go back to Britain and go to museums and drink beer. I also need to find someone else insane enough to want to walk along Hadrian's Wall [link]

I can't even.

On the eastern slope of Doon Hill, by Dunbar, can be seen the outline of the foundations of a British lord's feasting hall and that of his Anglian successor.

Looks like there's an active archaeological project going on there, SA. Might be worth poking into.

Ginger, I probably won't ever do that walk, but I just remember that I really should see Hadrian's Wall while I'm here. So thanks.

Do you have a link for that? I got no love.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

we seemed to do a castle a day and by the end, they had all combined in my head into one giant gray drafty place without plumbing.

I wanted to make sure this didn't happen to me, so whenever I took pictures, I would write it down on a notepad where I was.

A digital camera helps too, so I can figure out where I was based on the date the picture was taken.

Yes, you must see Hadrian's Wall and imagine that you're from southern Spain and your legion has just been posted to the Wall. Also, if you have any chance to see York, it's marvelous.

I've been to York--I went with Fay. It was fabulous. We went to the Viking Museum and to the Minster. I really enjoyed it there.
