Couldn't see a thread related specifically to this, so I thought I'd go ahead and make it myself 8-)

Here are some photos I took when i was in Berlin in around February '08. It was freezing cold I listened to Soundgarden on constant repeat :) . I've trawled through to find my favorites out of about 180 (!) I took. Had to just post the links because the sizes are a bit dodgy. If you would like to know what any of them are I'll do my best to remember. I hope you enjoy them to, and I hope you have some cool photos to share as well.

    It's actually what's left of the Berlin wall, would ya belive it. Seems to be the trend to stick your gum on the side ;) . Thanks for your support dude.

    I am trying to find a photo with the trees I mentioned before but I can't! :( The trees were outside the National Technical University of Athens and the strange thing is that the trees are still there(I don't know for how long :evil: :evil: :evil: ) and the gums are missing! Who had the patience to take them off the trees??? :roll:

    Here in the UK I've seen the local council send round teams to scrape gum off pavements :? and at my old school during the summer break they used to spend weeks removing all the gum that people had stuck to the underside of desks and stuff and they would be left with about 30,000 pieces :lol: can't be a nice job, but I guess it shows it can be done.
