Q: Where did all those blimmin' Goths come from then?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

If you thought the answer was Leeds...

Incorrect!

They all piled in a longboat full of eyeliner and barrels of snakebite and black from Gothenburg (or Göteborg if you're gonna be like that) of course*! :wink:

And because I'm so secure in the knowledge that I am not in any way shape or form one of those 'orrible dorty goffix :innocent: :P , I'm going to pay this city one of my "visits" this weekend. Just my luck that Eldritch chap's going to be there *next* weekend :cry: :roll: .

Can anyone tell me anything about the place? Where to go, what to look out for etc. And could any of our Schwee-dish readers translate a bit of lingo for the sauna, "Excuse me, but my famously reserved national culture has engendered in me a distinct uneasiness when confronted by a group of stark bollock naked people, please put a towel round yourself, for the love of all that is holy! :eek: " It would be much appreciated ;D .

Libs is doing Norway this year, so do keep an eye on Reuters for breaking news of an HL Burdz coup of the Nordic countries :twisted: 8) .

VALHALLA I AM COMING!

*This may or may not be entirely factually accurate. That could've just been Norwegians that went about in longboats. And I don't know if the bit about eyeliner and Snakebite's true either. Still, it's a mental image, isn't it?

Lunchtime. Yesterday. One of us went back to work. The other went off into the most goffik shop in Glasgow to look for earrings (I believe "dangling shoulder-bruisers" was the actual phrase used).

Can anyone guess which was which?

I can't believe you're admitting going shopping for pretty lady's jewelry Steven! :eek: :P :wink: :innocent:

@Zeno - Those pesky "Northern types" will be comprehensively subdued, you can bank on it! :twisted: ;D

Aside to the others: Don't tell her I already subdued the place last year, she'll think she did it all by herself! :P :innocent: :wink:

Well I've already done Finland.. so all we need is someone to do Denmark and maybe someone else at a push to do Iceland and HL will have invaded the whole of Scandanavia...



Time to move on to a new continent perchance....
