Nope, just work there, will run it next year...I'm basically just a lowly bartender with delusions of grandeur!

tsk tsk, if you read the backlog you would know that the site I referred to was discussed at post 133 and after.

hi az
--
ive just been to see a friend,and took a peek at the last pic of me,its ok,so i,ll leave it.
--
if i get any taken this year i,ll send on,but its doubtful,no plans to go anywhere.
--
apart from two days last year in blackpool, ive never had an holiday in over 12 years at least,
--
i have a passport with two years to go, and ive never used it,was hoping to go to france to track down my family from my dads side,
--
as they say, no use crying over spilt milk jimxx

jimcracker,

My last 'holiday' was also about twelve years ago - when I moved to Spain (so, sort of a working holiday). But I guess there are worse places to be a year-round 'prisoner'.


az

hi az,its about 1-30am
im just about to call it a night, your time diff will be hours out by england standards.
--
ive never been abroad or even in a plane in my life.now im disabled short trips,are all i can manage.
--
so i dont think i,ll be renewing my passport.
--
blackpool last year was my last trip more than 10 or so miles,with back problems and angina i dont go far nowadays.
--
take care,must get a few hours sleep jimxxx

It's a shame you never got to use your passport, jimcracker.

Well, at least you get to 'travel the globe' on hootoo and meet people from all over. Perhaps that is a bit of consolation.

No, I'm not hours out compared to UK time - just one hour ahead.

"ive never been abroad or even in a plane in my life"....

I've been a broad most of my life, and on a plane numerous times....

*practises in the mirror*

I've never been overseas...and down here every other country on the planet is over some sea or another...

The need to to travel will overcome obstacles which the mere desire to travel cannot surmount. It is generally believed that Hitch-hiking is confined to specific land masses and stalls mightily when met with open water.

But be of hope, for Truth is that ocean going sailors are often as willing as long-distance drivers to offer a lift. Go hang out at yacht clubs and public wharves. Avoid larger ships of questionable registry (insert your favourite 3rd world country here) and look for something that carries about a half dozen that has room for a new crewmember. Oh you might have to scrub some decks and endure the lash and scurvy but what good emmigrant doesn't. Half the fun is getting there they say.

Hey, how about an h2g2 exchange program like they have for students. I'll trade my life here for six months or a ye... no, that wouldn't work. None of you would survive the winters here. Hell, I'm having trouble myself and it's half past June already.
