Aye, this won't get deleted.

Fuck me, this country's rubbish.

Both the place and the lasses can be pretty rough around there too. That's harsh like.

Aye. I broke my mam on the way out (more or less). I was a fat bassa even back then. Au contraire, Smooth Operator was always welcome to have a fiddle with my Subbuteo.

To be a 'legal prostitute' you have to come from the EU so you get dodgy backstreets in and around the Red Light District where lasses from Eastern Europe etc. and their pimps are 'selling their wares'. The Red Light District is ok in the day time but can be canny shady of a night time (no pun intended). 193797[/snapback] The Romanian and Bulgarian lasses in Hamburg are entertainingly insistent. They'll generally not approach you if there's even a single female in your group, which is nice, but whenever I walk past with my fella and we're clearly being couply, they still come up and tug at your clothes and ask "threesome?". Bless.

I was talking to a lad I play football with and he couldn't believe I'd been to Amsterdam on 3 separate occasions and never been with a prostitute. 193784[/snapback] Totally different mindset man. I've only ever been as far as Schiphol, but if I do go to Amsterdam it'll not be for that. 193788[/snapback] It's a nice place. Dead 'touristy' like, but worth a visit. It's spot on for a city break as there are loads of flights from Newcastle and it's only about an hour away. I'd give the ferry a miss though. 193793[/snapback] Took the ferry across when I first moved to Germany as I had loads of stuff to lug. Didn't fancy trying to kip in my luxury reclining chair, so I ended up hanging out with a bunch of ZZ Top-esque bikers and terrorising the DJ in the dodgy "disco" into playing anything he had with a guitar on it, which basically amounted to "...Teen Spirit" half a dozen times. Quality.

Now that's 'Ciscotastic.

Shame about J-Pod like, was looking forward to it. Other than 'Hey Nostradamus!' it's the only novel of his I haven't read. 193665[/snapback] It's basically the nerd-cool and visual gimmickry of Microserfs with none of the content or charm. Probably not a bad read if you're totally new to the guy, but otherwise I have to say it all feels very contractual obligation. Definitely get your hands on Hey Nostradamus though, I reckon you'd enjoy it.

Set up a "People who think people are idiots" party and you'd get tons of support, largely from people who don't realise it applies to them...

Not at all sure if that kind of archive would be available online, since I presume (possibly incorrectly if the above headlines are anything to go by ) that it'd only have been reported locally. I'm sure you've tried chucking your name and the place name(s) into Google - failing that I reckon I'll have to pass this one over to Isegrim who, being involved in the law side of things, might just know a thing or two about news archives and the like...

It'll piiss all over the PS3.

Seems to display them ordered by last post in the thread... unless I'm being spectacularly dense, which is entirely possible.

But your parents still let me play with you (not that way!) at your house for years, it's nee wonder you turned out to be a sausage fancier. 193544[/snapback] Aye, they were always a little naive. "What creaking noises? We were just... wrestling" 193547[/snapback] And I always won, are you still as submissive? 193568[/snapback] Versatile in every way, I'll have you know!

He was like this at first school man, half the parents had restraining orders taken out...

I like the idea that you expected your kids to come back from school one day at age 8 or 9 and say "reet, dad, that's me done"

Henning Mankell?

I see that chayton is lurking again. Clearly up to no good.

It's normal procedure these days for any club that averages a top-five finish, not like in the pre-1992 days before any of you were born when our team was a bunch of amputees and malnourished orphans on 27p a week.

Recently finished Coupland's "Jpod". Spectacularly disappointing, particularly if you've read "Microserfs". Now busy attacking James Wood's "The Book Against God", which is heavy enough to require being approached in bite-size chunks, but despite stealing a scenario about faking male orgasm from an episode of Friends (ffs) it's pretty rewarding.

...and asks if he can feel your pain?
