  • Does anyone say otherwise?

    I honestly haven't looked but I feel like I've a few downvotes on this one.

    Fascinating learning on The Ice Queen and follow on and I fully agree on the disrobing of the villain with that moment.

    For what it's worth, I know all the words to Let It Go and there is zero shame for me on that front. It has been banged out in our car well over a hundred times.

  • Frozen.

    "Let It Go" is a banger and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.

  • How do you decide what you're going to do on a travel vacation?

    Jump

  • Not at all....

    One of the best nights out in my life was in Havana. My now wife and I booked a fancy holiday shortly after my dad died. Anyway we're in this ridiculously fancy hotel in the centre of the city in our mid twenties and it's not our vibe at all, so we get chatting with the barman and explain this to him and ask him where's good. He understands perfectly what we're after.

    He directs us to a tiny jazz club in a basement in a slightly dingier part of town but within walking distance, tells us not to order individual drinks, to get a bottle of rum and make sure it arrives unopened then just buy mixers.

    Place was fucking amazing. Only one other foreigner there, a nice french lady who was dating a local. By 10pm you could barely move. When the band ended the DJ started. Lots of the locals were keen to practice their English so we had a blast chatting all night.

    Edit: I see your other comment about Chesapeake bay and that makes more sense but in a city insider knowledge is far more valuable and more likely to get you a gem that you otherwise wouldn't have.

  • What was the scariest “We need to leave… now” gut feeling that you’ve ever experienced?

    Jump

  • Wow. What a legend that lady was.

  • Walking tour. Get your bearings, insider knowledge and always some fascinating history I definitely was never going to know.

    Jump

  • Did you search for lake America? I'm also in Europe and replied to your other comment with pics. It defaults to lake Ontario for me.

  • Mine has it in brackets. They can honestly fuck off with that.

    Like I specifically searched lake Ontario.

    Edit: if I go out of search there's no mention of the wrong name however.

    Oh ED209, you scamp. I already dropped the weapon.

  • One of my bucket list things is to try a food item, listen to an album and read a book from every country in the world. Any recommendations?

    Jump

  • How many have you done so far? Sounds like a fun project.

  • Why do American kids rely on the school cafeteria than bringing their own food?
