Oh yeah, I recall you were in transport. Brutal industry.
We didn't get farther north than Oxford in the four weeks were there and the week in Cornwall was so good, that's where my peeps were (mainly) from back in ye olden days. It's all good though and we loved the country areas, the open spaces (Dartmoor for one), historical locations (castles, mannor homes, Roman stuff and ancient stuff like Cheddar Gorge). It's all bloody awesome, even the big smoke Londinuim.
The country areas are the best, London is good too but I love the rural parts. All the castles and ridiculous stately homes purchased off the backs of slavery and poshness!
Yeah, it's mindboggling the wealth those bastards must have had right? We went to Blenheim Palace where Winston Churchill was born...immense and the wealth inside, the building and the grounds...not something one can maintain on minimum wage. There's so many others too.
Damn it, now I want to go back and explore some more.
Yeah man. We have been to a few up here and even the little details like the bastards ferrying fancy stone from hundreds of miles away because they liked the colour and stuff. It's crazy how much money they had
We'd have been the other guys, serfs; flaming torches, pitchforks and marching on the estate seeking payback for years of enforced drudgery figuring burning it down would make us feel better.
For fucken sure Boomy. They invented the duck face pout too, 'twas all the rage in the middle ages.
Not as prevalent now I think, but back a while it was all the rage huh? They're still pumping up their lips with poison though. We saw one yesterday whose lips stuck out well past her nose on side profile. Looked like one of those Moai statues on Easter Island gone wrong. Still, some folk love the look I guess.
