I plucked up the courage to do it

Here's the first post from the Pride of Hull in the North Sea.

Obviously it will be difficult to verify where people are posting from, just be HONEST!!

Internet Cafe's of the world watch out

Is this a competition????????????????????? *evil grin*

What's the prize?

Going to Scotland next week... Ohhhh think of the service stations on route...

It's stretching the imagination a bit to call any of the service stations on the M6 exotic

With all those certificate making software programmes around I'm sure we could knock up a "Most travelled Member" Prize Certifcate.

Be careful with the answers to that

*quickly bites tongue to avoid obvious comment*

The whole of Lancashire is exotic. This is the official American view.
When I lived in California, I shopped at an oddball supermarket which was the only place I could get decent cheese. On one occasion, I was delighted to find and purchase Lancashire cheese. I remarked on this to the checkout dude (sic) and was told "Yes, we get quite a lot of exotic cheeses here."

Three years ago I ran the site from various B&B's around Scotland and nobody knew. Since then I have also run it from Spain twice, again nobody was any the wiser.

That's a double edge sowrd comment there Jane..

*ducks*

I guess that's the beauty of the World Wide Web - it covers all corners of the known world ..... and Scotland

Go and look at page 10 of the centennial posts thread, a year ago (Jul 5 2003, 1:14pm) when i made my 400th post, and see how far afield I was.

hehe

Turkey eh? No-one likes a show-off

A show-off? Is that what A-M has at Hickstead if there is a tie?

I viewed the forum from Singapore and New Zealand....

You mean they've got computers in New Zealand now! When I was there a few years back it appeared as if the whole country was stuck in some kind of fifties time warp

Showing off. Nah. Just an amdram addict who had to walk a couple of miles to then get a bus to the nearest town

Besides I'm very well liked here (I hope)

Hear, Hear.

Claire hugs Robin.

Oh thankyou Claire. *blushes*

awwwww what a love in!

Of course you're very well liked, Claire!

I think I'm going to be sick

(Of course, I was only joshing - I like you too Claire )

Well, I made quite a few posts here from Miami back in April - does that count?

I think this thread should be re-titled "Name Droppers Inc"

All these peeps going away this weekend don't forget to post here

I'm not to sure exactly where I'm going next week or if there will be Internet access, just wait and see

I was in France and until yesterday we didn't even have a toilet never mind internet access!

Reminds me of the jkoke about all the toilets being stolen from the local Police Station.......

...and they have nothing to go on!

That's the one!

OK, this is a bit of a cheat because I'm posting from work but I just wanted to tell y'all where I was last week. Exotic Devon. Not so very fancy you may think but we were staying on Burgh Island near Bigbury on Sea. It's a fantastic art deco hotel on a tiny island reached by sea tractor at high tide and Land Rover all other times - and by helicopter if you're really flash. It's so exclusive that only guests are allowed in. Har har! It was Ian's 40th birthday the weekend before last and this was my pressie to him. Mind you, I won't tell you how long I had to save up for it....!

Welcome back Muareen. Glad to hear you had a good time - it sound's fabulous. You've got a lot of catching up to do here. It was manic for a couple of days last week.

Thanks Buccs. Sadly also a lot of catching up to do at work...sigh...

Wecome back Maureen. In particular, Martin took the opportunity to push past you.

Thanks honey. Never thought that Duck bloke was much of a gentleman....

You don't know the half of it. Some of the things he was saying ...........

Hee hee hee. He's just read this - you lot had better watch out!

Welcome back Mo.

Greetings all!

This is my contribution, from Dublin airport where there is free wireless internet access.

Have to make the post short as we're due to board the aircraft any moment now.

Good on yer, Marc. What an exotic location!!!

To be sure!

and how much free Guiness did you have

Well, you have to start somewhere!
I did post from Hong Kong last year, but this topic wasn't around then.


Ah, now that would be telling...

Actually I'm not in Germany at the moment, I'm in Flint, N.Wales. Which if you like it windy I suppose it could be exotic

Absolutely! Of course Wales is exotic...!

BTW - I'm in Portugal at the moment...

...and I'm in Liphook.

On a fishing holiday !!!!!

Greetings from Ljubljana - capital of Slovenia...

Hopefully a sufficiently exotic location to be worthy of this thread!


Fabulous dahling!

What's in Liphook then???

Nothing!!




But when you get back from exotic locations, are you going to be in time for a "Guys & Dolls" get-in next Sunday?

Oh...!

I should be back on Friday - so will be able to make said get-in!

See you there???

Well, we didn't manage to post from Corsica - sorry about that! Too busy enjoying the sunshine and sea to go looking for an internet caf? and all that ...

Just managed to scrape together a few days' holiday and will be off to Miami for a week next month to visit my mum for Thanksgiving. I'll try and post from there, if I'm not too busy swimming, sunbathing, shopping, drinking cocktails or touring the Everglades...

*smiles* We have relatives near Liphook and they think it's a lovely place.

I did consider going online at the Youth Hostel this weekend, when I found they had a computer. But the lure of here, was outweighed by the position of said computer, which was in the games room where there were lots of children.
