    Is there nowhere selling books for tourists? I'm in Spain atm and came across 50 shades in the English section of the nearest bookshop.

    Well as far I know the town I live has no bookshop (well except the German one). The supermarkets sell English, Spanish and German books but no sign of 50 shades. That said a lot of it chick lit so might pop up yet. :P

    Read a hilarious status (yes facebook) last night: the Irish version of 50 shades... Thought I'd psml - and now I don't need to read it as I know what happens :)

    I can't repost it here as its probably a bit too graphic for boards. But you might find it with google (it's a joke not a whole book)

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Haha I was like how hard is to get an app like this running. It seems too much of that is what caused the fcuk up in the first place!

    Edit, ah now no ":rolleyes:" emoticon! Just because there isn't a gay woman's version doesn't mean you should be jealous! :p

    It's always worse when you're the one left behind. Happened to me loads in the last few years when herself was away in London and China. You realise how much time you spend just hanging out.

    I feel your pain. I'm home for a week on my own, before I make a move to Dublin in the next couple of weeks. Time spent without my girlfriend is driving me nuts.

    what we used to do was sit down once a week and watch the same thing at the same time with a chat window open. Makes you feel nice and connected. :)

    Also- yay honeymoon! Where you guys going?

    Everywhere!

    We got CP'd last sept but I was starting Uni so we delayed the honeymoon.

    We're starting in Poland and finishing in Italy, inter railing all the way down. 13 cities I think!

    That sounds like it will be an amazing trip. I don't know why, but I'd rather drive around Europe. Hope you enjoy your trip :)

    Driving would be epic but would take too long and after having rented a car the night we landed Spain, just after the CP, only to realise the next day in the scorching heat the air con wasn't working I'm sooooo not renting a car when I'll be driving far away from the rental place again!

    I'd bring my own car. I'd love to drive through France to Germany for a spin on the Nuremberg ring. Through Switzerland for the scenery then up to Norway, Denmark and Sweden to finish off.
