I know it's all relative, but I wouldn't call the distance between Dorset and Stonehenge (Wiltshire) "right around the corner".

Stonehenge is however about a 30 minute journey from my house.

Yeah, but airports in Italy and Greece are the worst things.
In Italy it's not uncommon for your luggage to get "lost" before it's even on the conveyer belt and in Greece there's a 95% chance that your flight gets cancelled because air traffic control personnel are on strike. You'll probably never even get there.

Be affraid Okies, be very affraid!

I didn't realise you were in Wiltshire. I heard they all fuck their sisters there, is it true?

Not for us, but if you're from Oklahoma... I remember floatingslowly posting about (considering) driving to Dallas to go see a gig by band X or Y.

that is because you have different definitions of close or far.
british people will say 1 hs is far, when to a lot of people thats the time they spend daily stuck in traffic.

ive seen it many times (car window). i can see a bunch of people walking in circles ten meters from the thing and wondering what the hell is this.


I went there as a 10-year old and remember being annoyed that you couldn't get anywhere near the stones... I don't think there was even something like an information centre or anything at the time, has that changed? I mostly remember it as just a bunch of stones and a big parking lot with lots of busses full of tourists.

pokkeherrie 03.10.2010 05:54 AM

But what to do if you don't have a sister?

You can during the solstice. You get a chance to catch a druid called Arthur doing his druid thing too - while listening to dopethrone on your iPod, obviously.

Yes, but that's only because I hadn't seen The Wicker Man at the time.
Nowadays my fantasy would be about ritual sacrifice and paganist orgies.

The Welsh Valleys. You'll feel like you've entered a High on Fire album just buying a loaf of bread.

The fact that liz buckingham's vagina has probably made direct contact with one of those cushions makes me sort of wish I'd bought it.

And you're from where? Somerset isn't it?

Incidentally I'm from Hampshire not Wiltshire.

floatingslowly 03.10.2010 09:17 AM

ooh mah gawd, nooooo! not 30 minutes!

who knows. I may not even go now. girlgub is convinced that I'm going to leave her in the hotel room while I go out and make sweet sex to pookie every night.

knox 03.10.2010 09:20 AM

floatingslowly 03.10.2010 09:46 AM
