as I have placed stories about Canada and UK tonight it's only fair I place a story here about My Maternal Home town of Landikotal..where the concerns are..umm..slightly different from the rest..a lot of you may not relate to some of it but this news item had me...ROFL... currency conversion....US$1=Rs30 approx... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Read about , albeit in a horribly sanitised form :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why have they got a Union Jack flag for the English language version? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was thinking the same thing:) Cant help but remind me of..."The Secret Life of Michael Fry." has anybody seen that?..One of the most awesome made for Television Dramas ever:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um..Ceri..why isnt there a single pic of your town on this site? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't ask. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
at least it looks like a nice and tolerant town from the logo..a couple of guys dancing over green and blue waves..:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Because they're from Barry and about as smart as a single cell life form/They're subconconciously trying to make welsh people not feel part of the Uk by saying English is the language of the UK.... Flea: Even the council aren't that stupid. Putting pictures of the town would not encourage people to go there... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but people being merrie and gaye dancing hand in hand..I am sold:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think its taking irony to an extreme. Two blokes dancing ahnd in hand would be severely kicked in, in Bally (that's how you pronounce it). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've have to correct you there Jonesy, it's pronounced, "Bally, like". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
even though it's Ball(y)? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Her's mine. It neighbours Ceri's but is much better and has a nicer class of people http://www.bensalter.welshnet.co.uk/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Classy :o |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you got a golden gate bridge replica in your town!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
, though it isnt really my hometown...more like the place i live |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
err...what's the swedish word for pictures..or gallery? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dunno....i'm not swedish ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

He he, it looks like one "supermarket sveg" the s has dropped down from "supermarket's veg" ;) Jonesy: How can you say such hurtful things about Barry? And you call yourself a socialist... I thought you'd empathise with the laid off, malcontent dockers? Flea: Yes, Penarth Pier is nice, my mums mate has a flat overlooking it. It's a nice quiet seaside town, not full of arcades & chippies :) |
||||||||

nurmijärvi is the biggest hillbilly place in finland. and the swedish word for picture is bild. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dunno, haven't been since I moved here. I went when I was little & my parents paid then :) Not too expensive though, I think it's like £4 or something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
err..and what's the finnish word for picture then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um..no bild on sveg.info :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Only swedish I know is the word for Candy floss, I can't write it, but it sounds like "soccer-van" :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where I grew up I was about 5 minutes from a zoo..and the tickets were like..hmm..5 Cents equivalent..hence my reluctance.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But you're old of course stuff was cheaper when you were a nipper! ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the finnish word is kuva. and there is no pisture section on sveg.info? those look like ads to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did you grow up in your mum's town (described above) or in Nz.? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still not to far away from where I am now, 20 min drive, but you take the Torquay highway at 130kp/h like everyone else, you'll get there in 10mins ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
....and if I still lived there I'd have the alarm clock set for 5am for a morning surf :D |
||||||||
|

"Vantaanjoki virtaa läpi Nurmijärven. Joella ja sen koskialueilla voi meloa ja kalastaa ja rantamilla retkeillä monimuotoisen jokiluonnon keskellä kivenheiton päässä Helsingistä." ??? Whaaa? What ever it said... the pic next to it is luuvvvvly! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it says: the river vantaanjoki flows trough nurmijärvi. at the river and its rabids you can paddle or fish, and on the banks you can hike in the middle of a diverse river nature. all this only a stones throw away from helsinki. |
