    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

    With his galleons and guns
    Looking for the new world
    In that palace in the sun
    On the shore lay Montezuma
    With his cocoa leaves and pearls

    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
