Davey

THE DARKEST NIGHT By Davey I sat looking out the living room window, watching the rain slowly snake its way down the glass. Tonight was Halloween; I’d been invited to my friend’s party across the street. Christina, my friend, had excitedly told me that tonight was to be the night I would open myself up to people again, saying I’d shut myself off from the world for too long. I just silently agreed to save any argument. Two years had passed since

I'm still alive I got told off by my doctor for not taking action earlier, it seems asthma attacks are an issue you shouldnt wait on.... well my blood oxygen levels are back to normal levels and my lung capacity has increased by 78% seriously when he told me that I was like huh? How was I still breathing? lol anyway Im alive and I got a neat aero chamber thing outta the deal

Here in the UK when speed cameras were first installed it was all about safety. Since then we've moved along a little, now the police are using them to boost they're funding. We have the standard roadside versions along with the average speed ones on motorways but now we have these great moving ones that are hidden in vans. All they have to do is pick a layby, park up and start collecting the cash! They publish the locations online here, however they dont actually say which ones will be in service. I've also never heard what they do with the money collected, I would hope they spend it on accident prevention or something like that, however I doubt it. They probably have the best Christmas party ever! lol

Oh my..! I find that.... disturbing.

Much like Colin said, Chris and I are in love, its that simple, we're committed to each other in sickness and health. So regardless of circumstance we stay and work with it. I'm in this for life. Davey

Just saying, the hotel people give me that look.... 'why would you have an American calling you?!" love it and you!

Agreed! My most recent favorite has to be the 'I'm going back to sleep!' thread which somehow managed to gain a total of 40 replies! I'm sorry to say that this drivel posting has killed GA for me. Dave (p.s. Hi Vic! )

Same here, the 'hill start' was part of my drivers test. Different to most here, I've never even been in an automatic car. I love driving my manual, I cant help but think it'd be boring to let the car do the gear shifts... thats where all the fun is!

Thanks everyone, Chris and I have had a nice and peaceful day spent doing nothing.... The best kind!

So true! And even then we'll be complaining that the government is taxing us too high for using it!

Well given that oil supplies will eventually run out. It would seem we'll need to find an alternative however costly.

The Ironic part here is that In Scotland we have out very own oil fields... yet we still pay $8USD+ per gallon, the majority of the value we pay goes to Gordon Brown and his Government in taxes. I remember a few years ago when we had protests out side the refineries here.. the whole country came to a standstill, it was kinda fun.. almost a premonition of the future, if we don't work out an alternative to oil.

We pay $8 a gallon... I don't think Ive ever seen it as low as $3!
