I do.
But I wouldn't want to live there again.

I grew up in the 70's
All of them - born in 1968.

It was always sunny except when it snowed and all school holidays lasted forever.

is this a song lyric?

( Lisette von Falcon, Tue 26 Jul 2011, 18:58, Reply)

No, it's my wistful recollection of the 70's in North Lancashire
It might not necessarily reflect reality, but that's what it felt like.

growing up is a bit shit, really

It's something that happens to us all eventually
Did you get to DC and, more importantly, are you in a more positive frame of mind than last time you and I were on here?

nope. There's a knick in my tire and it's likely it would've blown if I'd driven it.
But I DID play softball and I bought a new glove.

There's good and bad there
Softball good.

Glove - singular - isn't it usually better to buy two?

What sort of glove?
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 26 Jul 2011, 19:13, Reply)

A softball glove, doofus.

( Lisette von Falcon, Tue 26 Jul 2011, 19:14, Reply)

Now I understand.
So actually all good then.

Yes, thank you.
How was your weekend?
Are you hoping for a trip over soon? You had to cancel the last one, right?
( Lisette von Falcon, Tue 26 Jul 2011, 19:19, Reply)

Not easy now
Which is pissing me off a bit.

I'm hoping to get to the Shenandoah in 2014.

I've just bought a load of Civil War books second hand and was reading about the battle at Front Royal.

You'd know more about it than I do!
My parents bought a travelling book and we were listed, they said we were an ugly town full of fast food joints.

Front Royal
Was a defensive skirmish - or squirmish as Sarah Palin would call it.

You still live on a battlefield though.
