Traveling is no problem for me... except for the time it takes... and I'd like to go there and back again in a day.

You could meet me but you couldn't visit me, I live with my ex-gf and her boyfriend and it would be super awkward Shock

Like, if you wanted to meet up for coffee, then that would be cool Big Grin

But I may not have ANY money on me, so that would suck Sad

If they don't bust up the machine, I'll be back next year! Wink

So we were on the coach, and it drove onto the train and... it felt like nothing was happening, and someone was just shaking the train from side to side. Weird and boring.

She asked me what I expected, and I said I thought we'd see out the windows, and see fish swimming underwater or something... I'm dense sometimes.

I would have thought the same thing. I'm dense sometimes also. Tongue I thought you would see outside and the tunnel would be dark, but see the countryside our something when not in the tunnel. I would be excited even knowing the truth. Because I LOVE to travel.

Yeah, if I was just on the main train and not also inside a coach, I would have probably got to see something at least Smile We had no windows to look out of for the massive carriage we were in.

It was still an experience! And it got me to the WW1 rememberance which was the point of it. I was expecting France and Belgium to "look different", so that I'd instantly know it wasn't just another bit of Britain. The parts I went to really didn't look very different at all, besides some differing house designs.

Let's see...
Oxford to York, 3:30 hours, check!
Train from York to where Evie is, a place I've dubbed ass-end-of-the-world, check!
Meet Evie, check
Lunch with Evie, check

Get Evie on a train to see York, check!

Say goodbye to Evie at York as we had to get on different trains to go back home, check!
Another 3h30 back to Oxford, check.

That's what I call a full day.
I'm glad we met. Evie's a nice guy... even after 3 espressos (or, as we call them, expressos).
Now I need to headshot him on UT.
