*LOL* You must be the only person ever to love the rain in England. *lol* Although I must admit that the rain I experienced over there, was a lot better to the one I'm used to here. So enjoy the English rain. And you know what they say: Walking in the rain makes beautiful. Not that you need it... just saying :D
I like the rain at home too, it's just SO darn infrequent. Walking in the rain makes you beautiful? I'd never heard that. Hopefully when I go home I'll be gorgeous. lol
Make sure you go visit Sting and his castle while you're there, cuz I admire him. I don't really listen to his music, but I respect that he does it, cuz I've always been interested in deep things like what bark is made out of.
You're going to kill me, but I TOTALLY remember that bit and just don't remember who said it or when. I'm thinking maybe Paris Hilton?
Haven't seen Sting yet. I'll let you know if I run into him :) Don't forget to bring my Avon in today if you read this in time! It's only 3:45am at home, you might actually be on the computer now.
I'm gonna assume you're not joking there with the Paris Hilton crap since your memory blows that much. Yeah, so you've only seen it once (and the movie about 1.25 times), but it was recent - Hansel, so hot right now. Your Avon is safe and waiting for you to unpack it. Say hi to Thom Yorke for me.
Whenever I go to England, I like to play "Stuff I Expected To See" Bingo...
its easy...get a piece of paper, make 5 rows of 5 squares, with a picture of the Queen in the middle, as your free space.
Randomly put these in the other 24 squares, then see which you can find:
-Sting -Paul McCartney's House -Buckingham Palace Travel Mug -Double Decker Bus Spray Painted By Soccer Hooligan -Police dude carrying that funny stick thing -Austin Powers: The Movie film set (filmed on location!) -Tony Blair's kids' lost teeth -any Beatle -illegal alien Scottish gardeners -Spice Girls: The Movie playing card deck -Car accidents involving people driving on the American side of the street -Michael Caine VHS tape of any of his movies (he is in 14% of all movies on VHS, this one is the easiest) -American Corporate Signs with a 'U' in them (Ex: McDounald's)
Well...I've got other crap to do, you figure out the rest...
Ha ha, not really quiet - I mentioned it in a post when I first started planning to come over here. You might have missed it though, it was a long post. I've been babbling about it incessantly to people I know IRL :)
I'm in Preston right now! It's sunny out today! I hope it rains later.
I came in to the Manchester airport... Liverpool is about an hour south of here... it's in Lancashire, near Blackpool... or so my expert friend tells me :)
It's rained every day that I've been here, wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I'm not British yet. Hopefully by the time I get home.
