Hi - this is just to let you know that Mr Lemon is now here, stranded in london by our pisspoor response to 3cm of snow (all airports down, trains stalled, cannibalism in the streets).
Little does he know that he's next on the menu MUAHAHAHAHA!!!

Right - well he should be just about to get on the Austrian Airlines plane in about 30 minutes - unless this flight is cancelled today as well.
We had quite a busy day all in all - Houses of Parliament, National Gallery, pub, Imperial War Museum, pizza place, Science Museum, walking the lot. Dunno about him but I'm exhausted - my old bones aren't up to all this shlepping around
p.s. I did not know there was a Jagdpanther in the IWM - took four penetrating hits from a 75 by the looks of it - one to the engine compartment and 3 to the rear crew compartment. Bet they wish they had a turret for that fight.

Well, I just arrived back in Linz
The tour you gave me was great, basically a marathon through a few of the better museums in London. Quite some impressing sight's there, especially your face when you wanted to show me art.
3 Things to note for the next trip:
The British love collecting V1 and V2, they are all over the places.
The British love anything thats made out of brass or bronze, hoarding them in a fetish like manner and placing stuff made of it anywhere they can.
Churches take an entry toll, museums are free for anyone. (perfectly shows where the priorities are, and I like what I see
)I'm so going to sleep 20 hours through now.

Collecting v1 & v2?
You should come over in the summer mate and visit sunny Brighton next time!

Glad you made it back - 2 things...
First, the reason we have so many V-1 & V-2's is they didn't explode when they came over here - crappy German engineering
Number 2 - the reason we did not fire our own rockets back at Germany is that they are too heavy when you make them out of brass.

The Customs people will strip you down and ship you out if they don't throw you to the dogs first.
Just go down the pub and have a pint o beer and a spud in its jacket, don't worry, it won't killya.
Gawd save teh Queen...

Well, thing is that most English ale tastes like canned beer that you opened up 3 days prior to drinking.
It's not bad, sometimes it even tastes rather good but it allways reminds me of old beer.
I dont know but from what i have seen is that even in the duty free shops a Lagavulin or a Glenfiddich is still more expensive than in Austria.
may be due to taxes
Uh... horny are we?

AFAIK you had ONE pint of Old Speckled Hen and it was the first out of the pump that day so you can expect it to be a little lifeless. It certainly does not qualify you as an Ale expert

Indeed, i DID actually like it, and it wasnt my first english ale at all.
Thing is that despite liking it, every english ale allways reminds me of old Austrian beer.
I certainly enjoy drinking one or 2 pints of ale sometimes, but for the sustained consumation I needz ze BUBBLEHS!!!!!
