    *hand up*

    Ooh! Ooh! *Lifts a bag of hands*




    (If it makes you more comfortable, you can assume they are fake hands)

    *One hand up, as Op seems to have taken the other one*
    *Ahem*
  2.  
    Sorry.


    How about this one?
    A bit harrier than the one you had, so you're only making a profit, really...

    *both hands raised* "Me, me, me, me, oh me; I'm so excited!" Even if I can't go, it's way fun to think about. I'll get there some day.

    I got to thinking last night....

    Oxford is a big place. Innit?
  3.  
    Not that big, really. It's all relative, I guess. Why?

    I spent a day there when I was there.
    Actually less than a day.
    Most of the time we just walked around - went to the covered market, went up to this steeple to get a view of the town, and then just toured the streets, to feel the Oxford vibe. Didn't seem like there was much to do. We did have the best cookie I have ever tasted in my whole life. Ben's Cookies. It is LITERALLY - heaven in cookie state. Perfect.

    Some pics from Oxford:

    What do you think is inside the folder under his arm? Documents containing how to make the best milk in the world?

    I think he already knows.

    judging by his facial expression, yeah...i think he does. 'Mwahaha look at me, I can make MILK! MILK i tell you!'

    Ok, we have more or less planned our stay (got to get in touch with Mario to know if she will be able to travel with us etc.). Oxford looks very nice in those pics, Op! As soon as I get Mario's confirmation - she should answer the day after tomorrow- I'll let you know the details.

    How do I feel?

    Excited but also a bit concerned: will I understand you girls, will I be able to speak a decent English? Will I understand JOHN? Will I get every line and enjoy the show completely? IF we'll have the chance to meet HIM, will I be petrified as I expect to be? Nothing has changed, I'm still insecure.


    GOT TO STOP THIS INFERIORITY COMPLEX-NONSENSE!!!

    Nah that man is a bycicle thief who tries to look like a common gentleman with a bizarre taste for clothes.

    lol my college tutor thought I had tourettes, was hilarious!

    I used to get bored and I would sit there out of the blue shouting shit! fuck! bastard!

    She took me outside and said 'now Lauren, I know you can't help it, but you really need to try and hold it in...we have guests in the college today'

    hahahaha me and my friends would proper take the piss.

    It's hard to believe I finished that course with second highest grades.

    I am not sure about Fema. Either a mispelled leg bone or a bunch of "Fools& earnestly meaning asses", claims Gulf coast native who has survived 50 hurricaines without federal intervention.
    Dang blue roofs.

    I named that picture "The Professor".

    I feel like he took the time to match his trousers and pocket square to the rear light on the bike in the front, while the folder matches the bike's bar. All for me and my photo.

    I taglined the photo with "I say! What what." Because that is clearly what he is about to say.
    And yes Lozzy, there is absolutely no doubt his very important folder documents are milk-related. I see no other possibility.


    Val - yay on the trip :)
    as for the self-flagellation -

    I love you girls because you're always so kind.)

    Ooh! I spot a chance for non-conformity!!

    *ahm*

    Val, you are terrible at English making.

    HA! Take THAT!

    I think the old man is a spy, and that folder contains highly classified information. He just looks like an old guy with a penchant for loud pants to throw off counter-spies.

    Actually, I think he's going somewhere to give a speech, and the folder has his notes.
