I dunno, hiking without needing to navigate off a map?
-
We're already in London for 10 days at the end. What are the best national parks?
Also, apparently it's like 17 hours of daylight during the summer? That's cool.

My parents are in their 50s and my mom gets migraines is fuckin crazy so my dad doesn't feel like shlepping the family around that much. What would your top cities to spend two nights in be?
-
Sounds like we're doing York. You think 3+ days in York is worth it?
EDIT:
Now my dad just wants to book a week in York and do daytrips to the rest of the north from there.
-
Oi you british geezers and lasses (?)
So my family has a week between our apartment in Glasgow and our apartment in London. What do you think we should do? Tentative plan is something like 2 nights in york, 2 nights in liverpool, 2 nights in bath. my dad sent me this but I thought it looked really southwest heavy and pushed for york. Should I push for more time in scotland? Pretty much everyone is vegetarian or near as (I only eat kosher meat, I'll eat fish at a restaurant)
19th - lv glas, stop in lake district along way, sleep in l-pool
20th - play in liverpool, sleep in lpool
21st play in liverpool, sleep in lpool
22nd up early, sight see en route to bath, sleep in bath
23rd - bath and surrounding region (rental car), sleep in bath
24th ""
25th ""
26th depart bath in morning after breakfast, arr london befor 2:30
EDIT: bath has been taken off the list. more time in scotland? highlands? east? my dad seems to be under the impression that the english national parks are skippable, which I disagree with, and that scotland's scenery outclasses england's, which seems true.

chicks, man.

I've been saving the chicken bones and every month or two I have like two pounds which makes maybe a quart or so (more? don't measure) of stock
-
A starvation diet maybe
-
You would? it's only like 40 calories.
-
Oh, chicken stock. Chicken stock is a pretty great hot drink. Do you guys save/freeze the bones from all the chicken you eat?
-
That's from April. I'm not convinced we're ever getting TWOW.

Coincidence has played far too big a role this season, agreed, two more just off the top of my old-man memory - Jorah knocking around the one whore house that Tyrion happens to wander into and everyone deciding to go see Myrcella at exactly the same fucking time. Dany visiting the fighting pit that Jorah was getting his try-out at too. Nonsense.
"M'lady, Sansa Stark is in this inn."
"Google maps says not to go through Valyria cause of death and shit, but..."
On Stannis, they fucked the pacing - watching the broken giant leading his men to their doom was a moment they didn't earn, it just felt far too rushed. The key points where there but more time should have been spent on each one.
The whole northern plot felt rushed. I have no fucking idea what Littlefinger's goal was and I don't think the writers do either.

Why are you guys twins?

Again, lloyd dobler

"So basically all the petty squabbling never mattered and the White Walkers kill everyone."
"Y'know Dan, he did say broad strokes."
"He did. You know who's white? Brienne."
"She also walks!"
"It makes sense, creatively. Brienne kills everyone!"
-
Yeah, in the books they jump into a 100 foot snowbank. I don't know why they kept that scene and yet made melting the snow such a big plot point.
-
You know what bugs me? The northern plot in ADWD was the best part of the book, I'd been telling my sister since season 3 "wait til all the northern lords who are secretly loyal to the starks are gathered in winterfell for the bolton wedding" and none of that happened. There's about 5 extras in all of winterfell. No Umbers, no Manderlys, no Freys, no pies. Sure, sometimes you have to change things for TV but the tv plot is so much worse. Not to mention how rushed it felt, good thing we got dorne* instead.
*So she seriously said "you want a good girl but you need bad pussy"
-
just find out where she lives and hit her with the lloyd dobler my dude
-
This about sums up my feelings on this season. It's still fun to watch but the writing is so implausible.
Stuff like "Brienne leaves 10 seconds before Sansa lights the candle" and "Ellaria poisons Myrcella while Trystane is on the same boat a half mile away" and no fuckin Manderlys doesn't help either.

lol I'm weak and can't handle caffeine I drink ginger tea from a bag

I think we're staying in notting hill with the yuppies. Think you might have gotten east coast and west coast confused? Is this from driving on the other side of the road?
Looks like we're going to be using york as a base but on the plus side, we got an amazing deal on a place right downtown (200 USD a night for a place that lists for 250 pounds!). Guess we'll drive to the coast and maybe the peak district. Whitby looks really nice. And yeah, Manchester didn't look that great. Obviously a lot of great music came out of there but most of that music was about how crappy manchester is.
Edit: Oh man, northern england is like germany or belgium for beer, huh? hang in there, stomach.
