Food&drink:
They sure do love their fish and chips. I have always thought that f&c must be some kind of a uberproduct , and because they are a such a fuzz, it must taste very spectacular. Nope. Ive tried it twice, but it still is just chips (french fries in Finland) and a piece of fish, thats been battered and deep fried. I get the same result back at home, when I by frozen fishsticks and fry them on a pan. Its ok, but thats just it.
Haggis is just minced meat with spices. I though understand why they love it. Its cheep, and back in the days, when nothing could be left over, it was a great way to use sheep as a whole. It was good, and Im proud that I tried it.
Today I tried deep fried Mars-bar. It was quite interesting, but I will stick with the regulars. With that nutritious chocobar, I drank a soda called "IRNBRU". Its the local option for "ED" or "Battery" energy drinks. They say it can make you glow at night, because it might be radioactive. We will see it later on tonight... So now I have tried many of the "must try" things here. Kidney pie is still on the list...
Yes, they do drink a lot of beer here, but its cold! I asked about the "warm beer" phenomenon, be cause we still think that Brits drink their beer warm. Only some Brits do that anymore, so that one is busted. Havent seen anybody drinking warm beer. Those of you who know me, know that I dont drink beer anymore. Thank god they have Stronbow, Mangers and Olde English on taps here. Its good, dry and comes in a pint! From 2.90 to 4.00£ a pint.
Theres this drink called Pimms, that many ladies like to drink. Its got fruits and cucumber in it. Its like the "Aqua de Valencia". What ever the bartender has for leftovers ;) No no, tried it. Quite good and refreshing.
The Ladies:
In Finland we think that girls in UK are, Im not gonna say ugly, but not the prettiest one in Europe ;) Well, I kind of like the British girls. Of course there are many, that are a bit chunky on the bottom, but boy, do we have those back in Finland also. No offence to anybody!! Im not the thinnest one myself.. Of course if you live on fish&chips, the fat is gonna go somewhere, and since its quite cheap in here to dine at McDonalds or at KFC...what do you expect. Theres also many immigrants from all over the globe, and they rule! Oh man, what beauties there walk around the city. This is and inside joke, but for those who understand it, theres been a lot of "Well Hellos". And, I did manage to get a glimpse of the best cleavage ever in Glasgow.

I can so imagine you and your well hellos, with a big grin on your face :D
