Can't remember if it's been mentioned already, but it's hot & humid there. Take a few pairs of shorts and lightweight comfy shoes. Or kilts, if you're into that sort of thing...

Yeah, I bought a backpack that could double as my carry-on luggage for the flight. I kept snacks, a bottle of water, dice, hand cleanser and my DSLR camera in it. I tried to keep it not too heavy.

Excellent - I'm really looking forward to this. :)

Here's a map of most of the downtown eating places: http://visitindy.com/files/map/RestaurantMap.pdf

There's no shame in that :cool: I saw them at Wembly Arena.

Best of luck relocating back home, and enjoy the wonderful British weather while you still can. Coincidentally, I just stumbled across a Millenium's End character sheet when I was tidying up this weekend. When is 3rd Edition due out? ;)

Heh! That was certainly my experience when I lived there for 5 years.

And, of course, you could hire a car :) I'm going to be travelling 300 miles to a friend's wedding in August, and it looks like we'll be flying then hiring a car for the weekend. Much nicer than the 5.5 hours drive each way predicted by Google maps (and probably cheaper, too).

I disagree - I think if you asked a bunch of British strangers at random, you'd find that they didn't really grasp the enormity of the US. I don't think that they would really have much idea about how different many of the States are from each other, either. To most Brits, the US is New York...

I live in the UK, but after driving from NYC to Tampa FL in 22 hours, I think I now have a good grasp of the scale of a country the size of the US!

I remember thinking she was smokin' in Moll Flanders, before she did ER. Checking IMDB, she was in a couple of episodes of Grange Hill when she was 17!

I watched it with my girlfriend (who doesn't play, and has never seen a game being played), my best friend for 30+ years (and fellow gamer for much of that time, till he moved away) who I was visiting and his wife (not a gamer - but has seen us gaming) and we all howled with laughter! :D

I agree - I think it's crazy in the biggest sport in the world that they don't have some sort of instant replay system - e.g.the captain can appeal a certain number of times per game, once the ball is out of play (like in tennis).

It's not - there are many, many other international sports where the officials announce their decision plainly for everyone, e.g. cricket, tennis, rugby.

Thanks for the heads up - I loved the show when it was first broadcast. Looks like it will be available in Region 2 15th July :)

The BBC are doing live text commentary: BBC SPORT | Football | World Cup 2010

Specifically, 1950.

It's one of the first episodes where my girlfriend has wanted to watch Dr Who Confidential.

Lots of opportunity for Cthulhu-esque storylines, with the Normal For Norfolk locals.

Torchwood Southampton? ;)
