He can't lose really, can he.
Everyone drinks pints.
Was the answer to the question I asked myself of how can I remain more sober than a bunch of girls.
It didn't work out that way.
I was asked to leave McDonald's (of all places) for making a child cry. In all fairness, he did look like he'd had enough chips and I'd dropped mine.

Last time I went skiing I borrowed a pair from a mate, they were Dragon DX Goggles and were an iridescent shade of purple.
They stopped snow getting in my eyes, I didn't go blind and If I had to describe them using one three letter word, I would choose 'rad'.
Sorry if my review got too technical there.

Those appear to be cylindrical and not spherical. Not good enough. Perhaps I should have mentioned that. :ph34r:
Is there skiing in England or did you head south? :unsure:

I went to Kitzbuhel in Austria where the skiers outnumber the snowboarders quite considerably.
Which was nice.

Dewd, I know you're old enough to be the object of your desire's father.
But surely even you weren't around centuries ago.

My wife is Welsh, you should have seen how much she enjoyed watching me supporting some small African state when they played against Wales... no sense of humour some people.

I knew it was somewhere in the UK... Wales maybe?
Austria always sounds like an excellent place to go. I know absolutely nothing about it, I just think it looks nice in the photties I've seen. :idunno:
I have been to Germany and Switzerland however and that was nice. I'd like to do the UK but exchange rates aren't exactly favorable. :snooty:

One other plus, it's the middle of a beautiful summer here, we are going to have a barbecue for Christmas day, do manly things and burn food while getting pissed in the sun. :naughty:

Oh, quite. Makes sense if you've been there most of your life.
When I think of ex-pats, I think of the recent exports such as cricket supporters in aus or the mahogany sixty year olds in Magaluf, who are way more patriotic than people who've lived in the UK their whole life.
And, yeah. Enjoy your beer, barbie and lumberjackery. I've just been shopping in the sleet :mellow:

Austria is almost exactly the same as Switzerland except Austria is slightly more German and Switzerland seems more French.
You probably got the better deal.
We're strong against the Dollar but weak against the Euro; the trick for you to get more bang for your buck would be to change to Euros before you come and then convert to Sterling upon your arrival.

Did I misread that you were an accountant manker? That would be a terrible idea unless you want to aid the banks in relieving our traveler of the burdensome weight of his papers.
Bank of America (U.S.) exchange rate December 24th, 2011
Bank sells £ 1.00 @ $ 1.6374 --- buys £ 1.00 @ $ 1.4809
Bank sells € 1.00 @ $ 1.3729 --- buys € 1.00 @ $ 1.2355
Post Office (U.K.) exchange rate December 24th, 2011
Post office buys £ 1.00 @ $ 1.528 --- Sell £ 1.00 @ $ 1.74
Post office buys £ 1.00 @ € 1.17 --- Sell £ 1.00 @ € 1.34
So if you convert $ 1000 in U.S. to Euros, you'll have € 728.39. Exchanging those Euros at a post office in England will yield £ 543.57
If you convert $ 1000 in U.S. to Pounds, you'll have £ 610.72. Or if you exchanged $ 1000 in England, it'll yield £ 574.71
Either way the worst deal is always to convert currency twice over converting it once. Money is always lost during personal conversions, and that loss gets compounded. The best bet would be to convert U.S. dollars to currency you need abroad while still in the U.S. Naturally there are some market variations depending on where you perform your exchanges, but they don't fluctuate so much as to make the original proposal worthwhile.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
What is alien posting, does it relate to the mundane analysis of currency exchange that I posted? If it's not, but rather some inane uninteresting shit, then don't bother paraphrasing.
