    1:What's up with all teenagers wearing sweatpants+the same material as a hoodie with cap? Looks freaking ridiculous (I saw around five-six in my age or a few years younger and they all had that outfit), coincidence? :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    2: Are all employees on Burger King/McDonalds etc, ex criminals? :emoticon-0102-bigsm They looked like they were going to stab someone :emoticon-0107-sweat

    3: Is Stoke known for something really ****ty? I asked the cab driver if he lived in Stoke (picked me up in Manchester) His answer was, "I live in Stoke for my sins, 'nuff said"
    That was about all he said during the whole ride :bandit:

    4: Is it THAT common with suicide jumpers? My cab driver on the way back to Manchester tried to encourage some bloke in Manchester to jump when he heard about it on the radio. "Freaking attention whores, just jump and get over with it . They never do it! :(" Never heard of any suicide jumpers in Sweden. Even though Swedes are pretty suicidal in general :emoticon-0108-speec

    That's probably about the questions I got after about 10 hours awake in England :emoticon-0126-nerd:

    Stoke is just ****e. The people are absolute ****ers, if you ever visit the Britannia you need full riot gear whether you're a woman, child whatever.

    1. Yes it is awful, but you have you seen the even cooler dudes who wear their jeans half way down their backside?
    2. Probably (even higher chance in Stoke)
    3. Read the above answer
    4. Not really, that's a Manc's attempt at humour unfortunately

    Welcome to the country <ok>

    They can be funny, but Mancunians are generally a bit strange. Not quite as mentally inable as those from Stoke though <ok>

    Not sure if Dowie's Hair is being serious but we do, for some reason have a very strange array of fashion senses going on in England at the moment.

    There's the weird one he describes involving skinny jeans, crazy american shoes and many piercings, usually accompanied by a stupid haircut.

    There's the joggers (or sweat pants) obsession you speak of, they're really comfy and therefore good for long car journeys or just lounging around or whatever, but I don't get why so many people wear them in public.

    There's many more, but I can't be bothered with them all.

    He also asked me, "How many people does it live in Sweden?"
    Me: 9 million or so....
    He: Oh really? Is that all? I think there's more people in Stoke (dead serious).

    Some good stuff right there :)

    Didn't see any girls in my age besides on the airports :(

    I went looking for the Swedish customer service team leader after I completed my last task, saw a "stunner" as you would call her, and asked if she knew where the Swedish "lass" was.

    Thought during question: Gooooo Stoke. England finally delivers!

    Her answer: That would be me! :)

    I guess I should have seen that one coming ;)

    1. Apparently it's fashionable. I dressed better than that to go to Football Training when I was 10.
    2. A lot of students work there, though for a lot of kids in Hull it's about as far as they'll ever go.
    3. Stoke's a ****ing dump, the people are weird and inbred and they have funny accents (just like in Hull).
    4. All I can say is...

    Meh, we are all fat and ugly. No point denying it. You get some absolute belters, but for each of those there's 1,000 Vicky Pollard lookalikes. :emoticon-0119-puke:

    Awkward situation when she walked me out.....

    Some random small talk...
    She asked how old I was
    I answered 20, and asked how old she was, and said "21-22?"
    Her answer was: "1981....."

    My thought: Oh, impressive!

    The problem is that I said what I was thinking :redface: (Could have worked? If not......)

    She had husband, house and the whole kablam. The mighty Febbos was out on deep water! :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Swedish. But I can't write what we said in Swedish can I?! :O She had moved to England 2005......

    Today: Woke up 06:00 (morning), breakfast at 07:00, taxi from Stoke to Manchester at 07:15, waited 2 hours and flew over to Copenhagen. I had to wait in Copenhagen for around 5 hours (Yeah, loads of fun, NOOOOOOT). After almost killing myself of boredom I flew to Gothenburg and got picked up.

    Been eating some pizza and been writing some **** since then! Is that good enough for ya? :)

    No, and you will be deducted points as a result.

    But why have you been in England, was more what I meant? And when are you coming to see the mighty Tigers in action?
