Oh, I know! Wally is great at that. He is probably just lurking until it is about to flip.

Whoever it turns out to be, is just sitting there watching and laughing their butt off, in wait for the kill.

It's great that they are more culturally diverse, but it sucks to be so far away.

Very true. But we do get to eat some amazing food in both places!

 

[Truffle]

Any lurkers tonight? I won't bite if you show yourselves...

 

[Hoosier John]

We have a few round-abouts here in Indy, but England is just filthy with them. Plus driving on the other side of the road means you have to be consciously thinking all the time. The fast lane is the right one. When you make a turn, you must roll out on the left side of the road. Then it's hard when you get back here, too.

Besides, John, they likely won't show themselves until about 290...if then. Otherwise, it will be about 298 or 299!

 

[Hoosier John]

Even walking down the sidewalk is dangerous. It's look RIGHT then look LEFT when at a crosswalk. They even painted "Look Right" on the edge of the road. Apparently it's not a problem for just me.

Europe is full of them! What is harder than driving is walking. It is really hard to remember to look the other way, AND to look where traffic is coming from at intersections. Heh, I am amused that they paint "Look Left" on the street at crosswalks..

In general, Lara doesn't like Brittish food. I find it fine, not great though. She does like London's food because they have many other types of food. I know she has found an Indian restaurant there that she likes.

Be sure to let me know when we get close, in case I'm not watching the count.

 

[Hoosier John]

I'd rather see you get two, than for me to accidentally get one.
... or would I ???

 

[Truffle]

British food can be decent, but in London, there is such a variety of different ethnic restaurants, that British establishments, other than pubs and fish and chip places, are almost a minority!

Are you talking about Europe above or England? Getting confused here.

Aahhh... Europe with roundabouts. Lots in Italy! And should have been "Look Right".

You know, I actually enjoy British breakfast at the hotels. It's always the same, but hot and cold food ranging from eggs, pork & beans, potatoes, fresh bread, cerial, yogurt, fruits, cheeses, etc.

That's what I was going to say. You know how hard it is.

Yes! My wife and I call part of it the "Stems and Seeds Bar" with the Weetabix and stuff...
