Below is the Aston Expressway into Birmingham from the M6 (major motorway
aston expressway




Traffic is going in both directions the only thing telling you not to use that middle lane is the lit up x on the sign above and the fact no one else is using it, in times of need though they do open up the middle lane to either go into the city or out

I think its crazy

We have reversible lanes here but not on a road like that.

On reflection I think i'd prefer roads and not having a reason to need the above.

girl update

She's set up an event on facebook for the meal she booked for us and of course her and myself are the only people invited. I think its incredibly sweet, everyone else however may want to take one of these sick bags.

Awesome. I don't need a sick bag, I can live with other people having their happy love moments in life.


I mean, it's not as if you really exist outside the internet, either being bot fabrications or figments created by my imagination and mental state.

Part of the reason surely, especially with the temerature hitting the 35 degree (celcius = 95f) mark, I sincerely hope some of them remembered the sunblock this morning.

Speaking of Cape Town, Phaezen - did you ever watch Charlie Jade? It was a Canadian/South African Sci-Fi show set in Cape Town, and I'd say very entertaining.

I tried, I really tried to like that. After the third episode I gave up. That's better than what I can say of Grand Star though. That I had to give up halfway through the first episode...

Fact is, even if I was the admin (and thus had access to the ip records), I wouldn't care enough to even check search the access logs and check where the ip for those ghostbuster names is located.

Besides, even oif they are all his friends, I sort of feel sorry for him that they would all feel the need to join in mass using Ghostbuster names just to placate him and vote for who ever he wanted to vote for in a stupid poll.
Some people love to be stupid

You talk about your youth that way because you've done a lot more than some your age. Hell I'm sure you've done more than I have.
I can relate to the troubled youth angle.....

It was fun to be able to pick out landmarks around the city.


Did the series ever go to DVD, as I would like to watch the complete series sometime....
