[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.
York is wonderful. Right after Bosworth, the townspeople of York ran a banner around the city that basically read "This day was our good King Richard grievously slain". Henry (stupid early NeoCon Tudor poop) ordered them to take it down, and they told him to get stuffed.
Canterbury does indeed rock. In terms of English cathedrals though, there's just something about the ruins of Glastonbury that do me in. It's such an amazing and obvious blend of pre-Christian and Christian legend.
Oh, Nora. That's so amusing, the shot of Tom in front of the Phi Dept, because I saw that today and said glumly, "Our Philosophy building sure doesn't look like that."
With all this talk of England, I'm reminded of how much fun I had when I was there. I want to go back and stay for a month.
Thanks, John.
Not sure there would be much to see at Eweford Cottages, SA, but here's a link to Dunbar itself. It is a charming place, plus of course there's a ruined castle :)
Betsy's furnace is broken, too? What the hell is up with these furnaces? Don't they know it's cold? Lousy shirkers.
Walking Hadrian's Wall sounds fun. I should probably do some of the long walks I want to do in my own country, first.
I loved the Viking museum and the city wall. Now that I think about it, I'm a wall freak rather than a castle freak. I love how the London wall appears at odd places. It's really all part of my Roman Britain obsession. As a child, I went from a dinosaur obsession to a horse obsession to a Roman Britain obsession kicked off by Rosemary Sutcliff.
I wonder if I'll ever get to England in this lifetime.
me too, connie.
Kenyon, eh? Ya hippie!

Uh, you must have my super-preppie rather conservative liberal arts college confused with Oberlin or something.
