As an English teacher I always enjoy learning quaint British expressions. I thought I knew them all by now, but no, "Keep hold of your bits!" in the Bristol Zoo was a new one on me. I once changed buses in Bristol -- or coaches, I suppose you would say?
a whole major page on Bristol with only one double entendre - well done. I was going to write two big tips about Bristol...but I digress.
Great shopping tips, Major! Very entertaining as well.
what a brilliant tortoise - celery stalks at midnight, what!
"Rabidly"? Hm, that's an...interesting adjective to use in connection with me. *shoots rabid drool in your direction, thus infecting you too*
no coconuts in brighton i presume? how about pantyrippers? oh i know what i'll find.... a local sainsbury's selling mcvittie's digestives. ahh yes, thats it!
