Concerts Galore in the UK.....missing NZ

[woodybee]

Hey Dudes and Dudess's...................

Got Green Day, Status Quo and Airbourne tickets lined up now, and tributes bands playing all over, this is great, so why do I feel the longing and loss for NZ and you guys I made friends with.....Obviously cant have it all, after Christmas, going to start saving for my return and plan to come back.

See you Dudes at the Vincent.........

Hugs Miss you

Woodybee

BTW....Fuck its warm over here at the moment, had some great days this week, and a cracking weekend is coming up, Sunday looks wonderful......so going to get my other two wheels out, my mountin bike to zoom around on, but will make vroom vroom noises on x

[McJim]

Haha. Lucky you - you're coming back to NZ. I'm the other way round - I have to stay here to support 3 kiwis and I bloody well miss Scotland. Beautiful mountains and countryside......with courteous drivers (INSTEAD OF FUCKWITS THAT TRY TO RACE YOU WHEN YOU OVERTAKE THEM).

Trapped in NZ *sigh*

[Big Dave]

Whateva. Live concerts are so yesterday anyway.

Now install a modern kick arse home entcent, spend the $200 on heaps x DVDs and and it's like being on stage with them - and you don't have to deal with the bogons.

[McJim]

I think Woodybee likes the bogans. she seems happiest in amongst huge groups of people.

We don't have boguns in the UK. Instead we have Chavs and Neds who slash you if you look at them funny. *sigh* memories

[Big Dave]

Trapped in NZ *sigh*

The idea would have been to move somewhere with a better climate than Scotland.

Climate is overrated anyway - I used to live in Italy for part of my childhood too.

Try the Gold Coast. My knees want to retire there.

You'll miss NZ less the longer you're there - I don't know you but if I were you I'd stay there until you're old and ready to slow down in life

Live it up, why not?
Go walking in the Lakes District and eat Ginger Bread, trip thru Wales and have roast lamb and go down a slate mine, party in Edinburgh - there's a life time of experience to be found, learning about history
Then access to the rest of the world is easy from the UK

Spend some time sunning your self in the Med, save and travel with the BPS in your pocket, do Egypt, Greece, Africa, Europe - check out Russia, its wicked
the Pyramids, the Roman Cities, the Greek Empire and the ancient cities in ruins.

Drive thru the awesome Alpine passes and experience the road engineering that will blow your mind, drive the road down the Italian coast thru places like Marseille to Le Spezia perched high on the cliffs of the Mediterranean sea, Italian towns with cafes wine and Olive groves, check out the spectacular Millau Viaduct between Paris to Barcelona at 2.4km long, and 270m above the river ......

There's just soooo much to experience - why come home??

Wait until you're ready to die (or at lest slow down a bit)

[Dave Lobster]

Status Quo? Fuck, I'm glad I'm the other side of the world to avoid that.

[Big Dave]

I bet they are gutted.

Big Jim......don't you have a lovely outlook on life eh!!!!!as as for getting the DVD's out, what planet you on mate, I love the vibrant atmosphere of bring surrounded by boguns, weirduns, normal luns, all crammed into a mad atmosphere of leaping about sharing the common band of loving a group so back at ya

McJim, I'm going to get up to the Bonny Land, any mates or rellies you want me to catch up with on your behalf whilst I am there, could grab a few photos and send them back to you, be awesome to go say hi to your rellies mate!!ha ha imagine that! Scotland is amazing eh.....and the mad scots are fabulous folk too.

Also, I was born in the UK, and spent the 37 years there exploring the UK like a rash actually, been up to lakes district heaps, climbed up Trefan in North Wales more often than I care to remember, hiked all over the place......and threw myself around Europe like a chick on a bungy...........

What I meant to say is that I love both countires, and no matter where I live, I will always adore the other....................my mind is open to the possibilities of consuming life everywhere, soaking it up like a sponge.....and living each moment like its my last.........

[Big Dave]

Big Jim......don't you have a lovely outlook on life eh!!!!!

I've not seen him naked, but I'd say it's a sporrenious claim.

I resemble that remark

Ahh McJim, you should apply to be an on call telelink Glaswegian translator ... get some extra squiddies that way! Read an article that reckons business types from around the world can't get around the way you Glaswegians mangle Scottish!

So they need people who can grok the accent into something they can understand! Can ye ken it? Och ay th'noo!
