Ian Wright...

Well I doubt i'd even want anyone watching !!!

My understanding was that although people would watch others would engage with total strangers ? maybe not though can't say i'm any type of expert on the subject and have no desire to be.........

By the way Warwick sounds cool

it was a ruined castle, but i've been obsessed with castles since i were a lad... i used to drive my dad nuts asking him to go to castles all the time!

Stratford is a brilliant place... i loved it, been a few times now actually... more japanese than you could shake a sushi roll at mind you, but never in a pub... japanese people are never in pubs

Yeah, driven past Kenilworth castle loads of times just never been in...

I was the same as a kid used to keep asking my dad to tell me about the vikings

Japanese bars are very different to pubs, not as social, serious drinkers when they start, they have their own bottles of whiskey / brandy labelled up behind the bar for when they come in... :eek:

Being from York I can concur, they made the Jorvik Viking centre smell "authentic" :eek: and yes made a coin as well...

They have viking battles as well :cool: and a ship burning on the river :cool:

If you can fight your way through the tourists to see any of it... :(

That's true! :cool: I wonder why this is? Is there a restriction on flash photography in pubs or something?

this one is about 3 miles from my house and its world famous in castle circles... http://www.castlexplorer.co.uk/scotland/caerlaverock/caerlaverock.php#castle

for being of a triangular design... they have done amazing stuff to it in the last 10 years and they do the whole re-enactments and stuff now... 10 years ago it was just a castle in a field that you could walk round and stuff

i dont think so... perhaps the weight of a pint is too heavy for them... they have probably invented a gadget that can lift it for them though... and that gadget will be the size of an ant's rucksack

Also, note my impressive knowledge of English geography - i.e, "up your way" = anywhere north of Milton Keynes. See, I'm cleverer than you think! :cool:
