But Let's Kick out the Jam!

Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning -
Opening the windows and breathing in petrol -
An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard -
Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays -

that's entertainment.
...

Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight -
Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude -
Getting a cab and travelling on buses -
Reading the grafitti about slashed seat affairs -

that's entertainment.

~Paul Weller (The Jam)

    Your enthusiasm bubbles across the page. I absolutely support the idea of women travelling alone. I've done a ton of it. Now that you have VT... you will have members to meet in every city you visit. So glad you got started.

    Even your London page is about Paris! I know you love Paris but you've got to try some new places. It's a big wonderful world! :-) (just teasing you) I tried to email you but I don't think email is working.
