    England

    wow! what a trip! it was fantastic visiting england and the home land, i have many things to share and it will take forever, about 210 useful images, sadly only 72 from goodwood, i hugely over estimated, as i had horrible timing and as i was headed to the supercar paddock they all went the other way to the hill and i had to leave!

    ive learned many things, new experiences yada-yada-yada

    ill post anecdotes along with pictures

    What i learned in england:
    -you're not more polite than us, you just like to think it
    -You can't swing a cat in london without hitting a nice car
    -trains=good
    -goodwood is phenominla, but a little hyped-up
    -people arent as romantically open in the uk, yet theres porn on tv...
    -apparently, according to top gear, cars with over 200bhp are involved in less accidents than those with less than 200hp
    -everything is twice as expensive, even without changing currency, say you want a 996 carrera, thatll be 60k pounds, or $120k, right? nope, not even $60k
    -exchange rate=not good
    -i'd much rather live where i am
    -london is too crowded
    -english women are in general unnatractive
    -the ones that are have big breasts and like to flaunt them
    -the stores try to pass off fake football jerseys as real
    -chavs are everywhere not just essex

    -goodwood is phenominla, but a little hyped-up agree with bit one, but hyped up ? are you joking

    it really is, but like i say, i missed the entire "supercar" section because of poor timing, im pretty mad about that, it would have been at least 200 pictures if i had seen that!

    -You haven't spent enough time with us. I take it you're talking about Londoners, who are quite chippy?
    -True.
    -You must be joking!!! They're always delayed!!!!!
    -Goodwood is always good, but you don't hear much about it here. It's a word-of-mouth establishment.
    -Again, you need to spend more time with different people. When you venture further into England rather than London, you'll think different.
    -That's because of shitty old and young drivers.
    -I HATE HOW EXPENSIVE IT IS HERE!!!
    -Well, it's nearly double your dollar
    -So would I.
    -Not really you went at the wrong time. Maybe when everyone dies you'll be able to appreciate it
    -WRONG
    -Unfortunately correct...
    -Always have done, always will. The real articles are vastly expensive.
    -I live next to the officially chavviest place in Britain, it's miles away from Essex.

    Sounds like there were more negatives than positives
