Nope, but if I did there would be pictures of the stuff we're auctioning for you to see. Sorry about that. Tell your friends to come and bid for you (they'll get wine and cheese too...).

*wonders where warickshire is*

by **Little_Nell** » Friday 21 February 2003 5:42:26pm

Warwickshire - yes it's in England. I was trying to target some English people... are there any here?

And wine and cheese doooo go together!! But not as well as wine and Pringles. Mmmmmmmmmm....

by **Scellanis** » Friday 21 February 2003 5:55:41pm

lol...wine and pringles...o...k...

well im scottish....but there are english people on here...i know of one at least....not gonna say who i think for fear of being confused and getting it wrong...lol

i personally think cider is better than wine.....hey lets experiment...wonder if babycham goes with cheese......i ate al my pringles...d'oh or i could have tested cider with pringles....

omg- speaking of cider AND wine, when we went to Quebec a year ago, we found this awesome winery that made their wine with apples instead of grapes! omg it was sooo good!! i think we still have a bottle (my 'rents don't drink AT ALL). *sigh* it was sooo good... :grin:

isn't warwickshire where warwick castle is? my great-grandma gave me a small book on the castle and told me about when she went to visit (lol, apparently one of the young lords went off to hollywood to act in movies...) and then i read a historical fiction novel about Ethelfleda and her military mounds. lol. that was like totally random, but i wanted to share that totally random fact!!

yeah, some people on the boards are from england... i think...

i don't have any friends in england who would bid on anything. oh well. it's good that way- must. not. spend. more. money (i'm a compulsive HP/LotR merchandise shopper... heh hehe...)

oh dear i've written too much! *falls over*

yeah there is a warwick castle...my big sister has been to warwick im sure, she loves castles (i mean i do too but she travels more) wonder if warwick is within big sister travelling distance from Grasmere....

i went to england & scotland once for vacation and we saw really cool castles...the churches in the castles alwayz gave me the creeps though...

by **MikeT** » Monday 24 February 2003 4:40:10pm

I'm from England! why do churches give u the creeps? I love churches! especially ones with graveyards! When I went to Bamburgh the church there has the gravstone of....whats her name again? She rescued sailors from the lighthouse....any way, inside the church is this tribute and when i touched it, I felt all cold. It was so nice to actually see tributes and statures of heros and heroines.

I love castles too! Bamburgh and Alnick castles and just spectacular! I remember when I first visited them I was amazed!!

As for this script: I wish Warwick was near me! I'd be straight out the front door! Mind you, my dad and brother are going to Milan to watch a football match, so why can't I go to Warwick! *quickly remembers that parents dished out £200 for Stage School* oh well, we can always dream!

by **ElvenMist** » Monday 24 February 2003 8:47:13pm

*is sad because there are no castles near her* *sniffle sniffle*

i think i shall go ask the 'rents if they will let me go to warwick. lol... jsut to see their reaction... *saunters off*
