I have a cousin in Exeter who is a writer and a very exciting person. The only other reason to go to Exeter is the dead people, I'm afraid. (Norman cathedral, lots of interesting graves inside, Roman walls.)
All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.
Add yourself to the Buffista map while you're here by updating your profile.
SA, This map is fairly current.

Untrue! The Bridge Inn is nearby, and you can get the exquisite Bishop's Tipple there.
Well, I mean, there's a Marks & Sparks on High Street too, but you can do that in any village from here to... do they have Marks & Sparks in Scotland?
...I lie. Exeter has the cutest Royal Albert Memorial Museum ever, including two stuffed albatrosses, a stuffed giraffe, a number of 19th century sea creatures preserved in alcohol, and a whole room of antique clocks that are all set to real time, most of which have bells or cuckoos.

Aye.
Exeter is a lovely town. I and my first love always used to meet under the giraffe in the museum.
In the States they are having hurricanes and elections. Surely, there must be some distinction between the two.
Both are proof that God hates Florida.
Wish He'd leave the rest of us out of it, though.
Jars still in Dublin? Huh.
SA, I'll be in Dublin! Or various parts of Ireland. Oct 24-Nov 1. Though I may end up having to rearrange that some, for work.
SA, meara, if either of you want to meet up while you're in Dublin, just mail me at my profile addy. I think it's about time I saw another Buffista in the flesh.
Meeting other flesh-Buffistas is only to be recommended.
Likewise, if anyone is heading towards southern Germany, drop me a line. Gus - it looks as if things will be slightly less crazy here from October, so if you want to test your new-found German skillz on, you know, real Germans, give me a shout.
