managed to just get out of NYC on a flight today before things got shut down. got colleagues holed up in hotels with all flights cancelled for at least 2 days now...
holiday inn is about the nicest you'll get in camden, not too bad.
otherwise you're probably gonna end on on the euston road at the premier inn/novotel types which are a short walk up there..
had dinner at Millenium on Friday night and was as great as always.
as people have said - if you eat at ihop or KFC in amarillo, texas, etc.. then you're gonna get crap! i eat in different countries/states every day and have had the best food i've ever had in different cities all across...
Yesssssss! The 8th seeded LA Kings win the Stanley Cup with a 16-4 playoff record and only losing 1 game on the road. Marvellous scenes!
(and i did tell y'all! hahah :) )
there is border control however you go. flying into canada you have the same immigration as anyone else arriving internationally, flying canada to US you clear US immigration in canada before you board - so the same procedures as you'd normally go through in the US when arriving, but it's done...
Crossing the US-Canadian border is the hardest i've come across in the world. I never have trouble as on a UK passport with the right visas, but Americans I travel with are often questioned/refused and always have vehicles x-rayed/searched by dogs, etc.
All US airlines have their good and bad points... so long as you're with one of the majors - American, United, Delta, US, Southwest, Alaska, Jet Blue, etc you'll be fine.
And as for going to Canada after your 3 months are up - when you leave UK/land in the US you'll have the show them your...
the games i've seen this season have all been to a pretty full house.
and who here doesn't want to see a rochdale win the FA cup instead of a man utd or chelsea every year??!
so excited for the Kings doing well in the postseason!
out of town until a potential game 6 in LA but gonna get there if it goes to that. good time for Los Angeles sports right now! (the best I can do in lieu of being so far from the Amex! :lolol:)
I live in Los Angeles and confirm she's a middle aged, buck-toothed minger here too.
As Easy says, it MUST be a wind-up. That or she is mentally ill. Very average looking middle aged woman, lying about people being nice to her.
Got some money down on the Angels to win things this year.
Think they've strengthed a pretty decent team very well...
Can't wait to see Pujols and Wilson in action down there in a few weeks!
Very sad news. Been reading his posts since the beginning and had a couple of spats with him myself. As everyone says, very nice chap in real life too, met him at one of the first meat-ups.
RIP Frank.
A great tournament so far with some proper underdog moments!
My brackets looking as strong as they can with Mizzou and Michigan going down in the first game.
Who do people have for their final fours?
I have Michigan State to beat Syracuse for the championship game... though UNC are gonna take...
Any NBA/NY Knicks fans on here?
Jeremy Lin is approaching a Tebow-esque level of mania!
After the craziest week he's had, he just hit a 3 pointer to win the game with less than a second left tonight. 'Linsanity' indeed!
