Gil-Galad's Grand European Adventure!

[The Might]

Depending on the time of your travel and the answer of my parents I may be able to offer you food, shelter and most importantly good German beer!
I live in NW Germany some 60 km South of Dortmund and you can find the city quite easily.

So...just tell me if it suits you.

Btw, don't you know that you can't kill Superman?
He has his secret weapon!

Where about in Scotland? Stay away from Glasgow

I see that you have not forgotten our talk. . .wow it must be over a year ago. . .I would be more than happy to show you around, but ofcourse it depends on how much time I have when you arrive.

oh and btw unless there is two places called "Portsmouth", I am afraid you wont be staying in London in your first stage.

The Isle of Wight sounds like a place you should visit.

of course you google in danish...

well i know that, but i still want to travel the countryside more then the big city, portsmouth is a nice place to be anyways.

with my part in scotland, i will either go north enough, then hit a ferry into ireland, then do a circle route back to portsmouth.

As you head north, I'd recommend swinging by Lancaster or at least Manchester. If so, your local Goomba will say hello. So bring a gun.

What time are you planning on going? You could always pass through Oxford if its near Oxonmoot time and greet some Downers then. It's an extra day long this year and so I'm sure if we put our minds to it, the Downers present could seek you out and kidnap you for our nefarious schemes... I mean, say hello.

Then you will probably go through Glasgow then, if you end up staying there, don't go walking about on your own at night. Don't go into the east end at all. Most pubs are a no go. It's not stabbing capital of Britain for nothing.

But don't let me put you off.

I would recomend Lancaster over Manchester any day. . .Even though Lancaster is not very big, it is big enough to go out and have a good time and at them same time it is a very charming city.

Site of the Pendle Witch Trials and many public hangings, and not far from Sunderland Point, one of Britain's weirdest places. Also not very far from the residence of one narfforc. I quite like Lancaster. We've been thinking about somewhere different to live and that could be quite decent. There's always Blackpool too for some seaside tack (and a free packet of salty biscuits from the ferry that got swept onto the beach a week or two ago)!

If you're travelling North towards Glasgow then you'd be on the west coast mainline (probably travelling in one of Richard Branson's red and grey cattle trucks, unfortunately) and I think that goes through Crewe, Manchester, Preston and Lancaster. Does it also go via Carlisle? That's a very nice place to visit.

Manchester is superb for shopping though - and if you stay there then there's loads to do at night.

But Glasgow has Belle & Sebastian and Franz Ferdinand.


I suppose Edinburgh, though, has Eomer of the Rohirrim.

He's Aberdonian like me, unless he goes to Edinburgh University like me aswell.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Edinburgh? Glasgow? There's only one city in Scotland that truly matters, and that is the fair Aberdeen. Perhaps it is out of Gil's way, but that would be a shame.

I am no longer there, however. Utrecht, or rather a certain Cailín of the Barrowdowns, has since claimed me.

[Gil-Galad]

i shall be planning the route this weekend. and i will definately be by manchester in my travels northward. or southward...

[Eönwë]

What about the isle of Wight? It is actually a really nice place. By the way I am just a boring Londoner, 1 of 7million+

Well, if I were actually European I'd be happy to help out, but alas, I'm a boring American. Thus I definitely look forward to hearing yout stories.
