Women

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Ben Blaney amazed us all with this pearl of
wisdom:

You make it sound astonishingly easy for one man to go it alone.

Considering the furthest I've been on my own is Northern Ireland, is
America really a good place to start?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not poo-pooing the idea, just getting a feel for
what's what.

What do you consider to be civilisation? Somewhere that's not completely
in the sticks or somewhere like a big city?

I'd like her to have all her own teeth.

 

In North Carolina being a relative is probably sufficient, the closer th
e better.

 

Lesbians are real? I always thought they were invented by porn mags.

 

platypus says...

No, that's girls who like anal sex.

Why not sort yourself out a Christmas Shopping Weekend Break in New
York? Zillions of deals at present and a great time to go to NYC. Dead
easy, cheap, tolerable flight time. easy introduction to US.

Of course it is easy. I've been all over the place on my own - I've just
done Rome and Berlin. If I can do Japan and Hong Kong then you can do
America.

It's nicer if you go with someone with respect to sharing experiences
and being able to push each other to do stuff that you may not
necessarily do on your own. On your own you can do whatever you like as
you have ultimate freedom.

Well it's probably easier than most of Europe as there is only a small
language barrier.

 

It is. Have a passport? Get on a plane, and you're on your way.

Shit, yeah. They speak a version of English, for a start.

Well, the south is a bit like our north - poor, full of
badly-educated, stupid but well-meaning folk. They are quite
parochial in outlook.

The big cities always have more going on, of course.

In NC, that's not guaranteed.

 

It is. My first time was alone in San Francisco. Loved it.

Why not. If you don't mind being fingerprinted and having a laser zap
your eyeball, then you've no worries.

Canada's a great alternative. It's like America but without the
Americans.

I met a bunch from NC, they were great fun and the girls had nice
accents.

Big cities are OK if you like that kind of thing, but the locals tend to
be a little more used to our accents as they see a lot of Brits, so your
chances of scoring on accent alone maybe reduced somewhat. However, you
can go to the small cities or large towns, and have the benefit of
having things to do but being away from the main places.

For me though, the beauty of North America is in the great outdoors
rather than the cities. But then I'm a country bumpkin.

Not repeating that mistake eh?

 

If it were me, and I were looking to up the shag quota, I'd be more inclined
to go somewhere where they aren't overrun with tourists.

 

Nah.

 

Just have sex with the coffee table instead.

For every penny you save on the cheap flight, you'll spend a quid on
the extortionate hotels. Hotels in Vegas are stupidly cheap, but it's
a shithole.

As the Lord giveth...

 

Well up to a point. I said he should get a cheap break not purchase
flight and hotel separately where I agree you can get robbed on the
hotel costs.

Why on earth would anyone go to Las Vegas? I see no attraction in it
whatsoever but then gambling leaves me completely cold. Cue Blaney !

 

It's the beard.

Ever heard the slogan "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"?

 

Paul Corfield scribbled on the back of a napkin:

Couple of reasons:

1) You like the desert
2) It's close to Death Valley
3) It's close to the Hoover Dam
4) It's close to the Grand Canyon

For American values of "close" obviously. IOW it does make quite a good
basis for excursions in that area...

 

Having spent several months with american girls, I am firmly of the opinion
that a trip to the states could involve both a nice place to go and the
aforementioned quota increase without going anywhere near Vegas.

But currently as I can barely raise enough cash to get to Wales, let alone
furhter west, I 'm not even go to try and prove this

 

I merely used Vegas as a point of comparison, in that costs are
pretty much inverted. The casinos are dirt cheap places to stay
and eat well, but the whole city is tacky as **** - the strip left
me completely cold, and I was there for two weeks (admittedly living
in the burbs for most of that.)

Walking off the plane and seeing slot machines in the arrivals hall
pretty much summed up the whole experience.

NYC rocks my world, it's cheap to get to (other than the PITA factor
of the flights there/back) but the accommodation, if you're staying
anywhere halfway bearable on Manhattan, is criminally expensive. So
great for a business trip

Muncie, Indiana was good for that kind of thing. Even I used to get
chatted up and laid by the local women. In 2 years of working 2 weeks
out of every 5 there I never had to pay for a drink in a bar.
