As a Dorsetian, it gives me considerable joy to inform the visitor to this lovely village, that if you follow the path of the stream that runs through it southwards, within a couple of miles it empties into the River Piddle. Totally true, I'm happy to say!

When you've just washed your hair .......but cannot find the brush or comb. They've both done that sock thing and suddenly disappeared.

Naturally I'm fannying around trying to find an implement that may vaguely style my hair in some way.

And Then..........Bingo !!!!!

An early night is one of life's greatest pleasures.

I don't mean a nudge nudge wink wink early night, that's barely any pleasure at all IIRC, but a proper 9.30 lights out.

I once had to interview some Slovakian girl done up like that.....but she was better looking...

Never looked forward to a days "work" so much in my life. :)

I’m sure it’s been done loads of times before but the simple pleasure of a good morning dump after breakfast cannot be underestimated.

Yeah, I've done it loads of times before, but you're right it's definitely better after.

What is it with Slovakian women? There's one behind the bar at a pub in town , and though she's a tad short (Not always a bad thing) she's bloody stunning.
Wouldn't mind a long weekend in Bratislava.

I wouldn't bother. Aside from the town centre which is about a square mile, the surrounding area is a proper karzi. Like Liverpool on a bad day.

Well there's another shattered dream... I expect the half dozen decent looking women are all over here, and what's left is more like them three above...

Seriously mate, dilapidated buildings, blokes pissing in the street and just a general feeling of doom. To be fair, I did go in winter / spring time so it might be different in summer. Doubt it though.

Good shout for Prague though. Enjoyed it there.
