I'm spending holiday times in ENGLAND!

So for those who don't know, I'll be leaving for England tomorrow (Thursday 22nd) and staying with my mother and step-father (my sister and her boyfriend are visiting as well) and I'll be returning on the 1st/2nd of January. I should even be in London during New Year's Eve. WHEEE!

So all you Massassians in England-land, we need to meet up somehow! Pleeeeease?

Oh yeah, I forgot. My mother and step-father (whom I'll be staying with most of the time) live in the Cheltenham area, in a village I think is called Temple Guiting. It's apparently pretty posh, from what I understand, but to me, all of England is pretty posh

Oh no, not getting drunk! Though actually, I have yet to get drunk... I've only recently discovered that I like any alcohol at all :p

And though I say England Massassians, I really mean any Massassian I can visit while over there. I ain't picky

Having said that i've never been to the US so maybe it is... Most of England is too scummy to be posh :p

I live in woodford halse, just north of Banbury (when not at uni, which is now till the 8th of Jan),

just done a little search on google, Temple Guiting is 41 miles from where I live, would take me about an hour to get there allowing for travelling on country roads and going through banbury...

uuummm, do I want to drive an hour to met a total stranger from the US...uumm...yeah why the hell not. :p

I'm busy in the run up to christmas and boxing day is normally a family thing so 23rd-26th is out. From then till new years is a possibility, although my girlfriend is coming up for new years, but she might even want to come along, I'll ask her and let you know.

People of our generation should not be subjected to mornings.

Awww Mort, killing's no fun. It'd certainly be amusing to put a face to you in any case

But if you don't wanna meet, that's fine.

OK all, we're going to cross our fingers -- I'm hoping to see Anakin-Paul and James Bond on Friday, and Ruthven and Recusant on Saturday. We'll see how things turn out...

I'll be sending you a PM soon enough, James Bond.
