  Wot's all this then?

  so this guy came to town last march from jolly olde england...we called him trucker, truck, amongst other unpleasantries.

  he was a quiet one, mostly observing and sometimes addingto good conversation...drinking, eating, laughing, smiling and winking once in a while....well...near the end of the festivities there were a couple of items left on his agenda and the apostates had scattered back to the four corners... well, we made plans, and really, looking at him and me, one wouldn't think we had too much in common, or that there would be enough mutual interest to keep us talking.

  i picked him up from the hotel in the morn and he was really jonesing for a tiffin, so catholic school girl and i took him to my place where he served us a right english tea, even if the tea was crappy...naturally i was not prepared, if it had only been beer he wanted...oops..anyway, i digress...his agenda included hitting downtown and the sights...we spent several hours doing that and talking the whole time...we actually had a lot in common and thought along the same lines on many things...after seeing the sights, we headed for a pub and a pint..i went to work a bit later and then found him waiting quietly and patiently for me afterwards....we went back to my house to see what you hooligans were typing, killed the wheat beer pr_capone had so lovingly provided, and he went home for his final respite in big d...deaming of apostate fun all round mateys....well its been a while since march, but it feels like only yesterday i was imbibing fine spiritual food and yummy steak with many of my fine colleagues...good times...good times...well lo an beyold mates...whot's in ye olde post frum royal mail taday?

  i'm travelling down south at the end of this month.

  my b/f and i are planning to visit stonehenge for the solstice.

  i've never been to that area of england so i'd really love it if some of you could give me your tips on what to see and where to go.

  Hi there Sirona.

  If you like looking at piles of ancient rocks,Avebury stone circles are well worth a visit,personally I think there is far more to see there than at Stonehenge.

  There are a few burial mounds fairly close by,the most well known is Wayland Smithy,its near Uffington,where there is an ancient hillfort with a huge white horse carved into the side of it.Thats well worth a trip to the top,you can see for miles provided its not raining of course.

  Silbury hill,which was mentioned stands by the main A4,its not a burial mound,nobody is sure why it was built,the latest thoughts on it I have heard,is that it represents the pregnant belly of an earth goddess.

  Just a selfish thought here,if you visit Salisbury cathedral,have a look for the statue Elie countess of Salisbury,thats one of my ancestors.

  Take care,

  Rich.

  smoking to be banned in amsterdam coffee shops

  smoking is to be banned in amsterdam's famous coffee shops where cannabis is sold without fear of prosecution.. .

  under a new public smoking ban, coffee shops will still be able to sell joints but customers may have to go outside to smoke them.. holland's new national health guidelines, due to take effect from the start of next year, were aimed at second-hand smoke from tobacco, not marijuana.. but they are also threatening the liberal dutch drugs policy which attracts tourists from all over the world.. "the whole point of going to a coffee shop is to smoke," complained arjan roskam, chairman of the union for cannabis retailers.. the head of the dutch anti-smoking lobby, clean air now, conceded that banning smoking in coffee shops was not the goal.. but willem van den oetelaar still backed the move.
