    british passports - jumbo or standard?

    I travelled on my British passport through Sweden, Norway, Iceland, France, Finland, Germany and Spain and the only place that stamped my passport was when I stopped over in Dubai. British passports are pretty well a ticket to any EU country and it's unlikely you'll get stamped.

    Iceland

    Iceland is a really, really beautiful and unique country (especially the north!), but it's a very isolated place and the city, Reykjavik, is quite small. I think 80-90% of the population live in Reykjavik, but there's not a lot happening. It was fantastic during summer when it was 24hour...

    Lordi wins Eurovision

    I really wanted Carola from Sweden to make it her third victory!! Ah well, at least Finland got it over that awful Russian person-emerging-from-a-piano-scattering-rose-petals performance. Eugh. Loved the Wogan's commentary, hated the hosts this year, especially the American. Can't...

    Age Difference

    I thought about this a lot and decided that age was only a state of mind, so why not pursue the relationship.... even if there is a 14 year difference. I'm now trying to convince myself that that fact he's married isn't an issue either. Not getting too far with that one. Damn morals.

    The Official French Beginners Speaking Exam 2005 Thread - POST IN HERE!

    I wish you all nothing but good luck. This was one of the most nerve-wracking exams I did. I agree with Chep- don't try and memorise, 'cause chances are you'll get lost somewhere and become flustered --> the examiners will recognise prepared responses and might ask you follow-up questions...

    + All You Get From Love is a Love Song, Road Ode, (Want You) Back In My Life Again.... OMG!! Someone else who loves them!! Karen rocks my socks. Both their solo efforts weren't bad either. My parents can't stand them, mind you they hate pretty much all my music (the only thing we...

    Ohh!! That sounds awesome!!! I'm planning on living in Sweden for a few months middle of next year. Then frolic on over to England to stay with family for a while. That's the plan anyway. All very reliant on my ability to save.

    Retail or Filing?

    I work in an office full-time and filing, for me, is by far the most tedious, boring work ever. I'll do anything to get out of doing it. I don't care that I'm being paid to do it, I just can't stand doing it. Apart from being hideously boring, paper is vicious and for some reason paper...
