I'd really like to head over the Atlantic some time next year, but I've got a big problem in that to visit all the places I'd like, to see all the peeps I'd like to, I'd need to be seriously minted.
Which I don't think will happen any time soon :'(

North America is just TOO large to efficiently travel in one go. I'm so impressed at what Jeanie, Mips, et al managed to cover in their time. I still haven't seen the entire continent and I travelled with my parents for years.

chemicalfan, you are more than welcome to come and visit California. You should come! There is so much here that Tim didn't get to see and he's visited twice and ventured around Los Angeles and Hollywood on foot (which is simply crazy - must be a wanderin' Canadian thing!).
Next time, Tim. Next time we *will* take you out to Joshua Tree!
Anyway, the U.S. is a vast place. I've lived here my whole life and I haven't even seen the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite, the largest ball of twine, etc and other postcard "wish you were here" picture places. I guess it's just because I live here, it's something that's sort of taken for granted - like it'll always be here and I'll see it sometime later. Shameful, I know. What the Jeanie and mipps crew accomplished in a short amount of time was really impressive. They did the right thing and rented a car - It would be really hard to properly see the US unless you had access to a car.

Don't want to get sick before the weekend, don't want to get sick beyond the weekend, don't want to get sick before the weekend..... *repeat mantra*
Girlfriend appears to have taken ill today. We've spent the last few days together a lot and I had an upset stomach this afternoon and just sneezed a few moments ago after falling asleep on the couch at 10:30 PM. I need a clear immune system for Saturday night!

Yeah , we drove 3000 Miles in 10 days. We made long driving days but it was so worth it. We saw soooo many stuff in sooooo little time. And there is STILL so much i wanna see. Thats why in 20XX i will go back , rent a car , and do a 3 month USA tour.
And about USA next year , IF i can pull it off finacially i might be in Cali again in April. Coachella or not! I just mis Whirly and Stash and would love to see them again. And you too Tim!

So, the Terrorists targeted 10 possible aeroplanes at Heathrow (England) airport. Thanks to the on going terrorist investigation the plot was foiled which saved I don't how many innocent people. I think the worst part, but not suprising is: "According to BBC sources the "principal characters" suspected of being involved in the plot were British-born."
I'm going to London Kings Cross to Cross Central festival, on the bank holiday weekend, and i'm scared.

I just read this, it was on the front page of Yahoo. It makes me sick to my stomach.
It is shocking iggy and I've been worried for Britain since the US got it's dose back in 2001, and especially since those bombings last year but you have to live your life or they - whoever they might be - have won. Hold your head up and don't let anyone grind you down.

Yeah Whirly , i agree.Me and my mum - okay this sounds dramatic - actually had to cry because it just doesn't stop , and this is not the end yet. Not at all.It makes me so sad.....
On another note what has nothing to do with it ;
I was just watching the video for Anybody seen my baby by the Rolling Stones , wich is one of my fave Stones songs , and i thought " Damn that girl in the video is so super beautiful! " so after a bit of googling it turns out to be Angelina Jolie.

its just really irritating isnt it.
i mean im sure theyve got their reasons, but by targeting innocent people and having indiscriminate targets dont they realise that they're just alienating people who might agree with some of their viewpoints (the wests stance on the middle east etc) and create further divisons?
ah well fuck it, stiff upper lip and all that. cup of tea anyone?
