They should put up signs where the border is. I think check points complete with vedettes would be better...in the 19th century lads from Old Swindon and New Swindon used to meet in the fields between the two towns for a punch up such was the animosity between the two. Part of your misspent youth reg?

Im feeling really rather sick at the moment. I was heading home at half midnight but my boyfriend went to bed so i decided to stay out until 4am drinking. Bad idea.
Ben did i see you? Only briefly. I just remembered that I rediscovered a skill I forgot I had last night. Breakdancing?

Part of your misspent youth reg? I would like a time machine to go back to see Swindon, in say the 1880's. Why can't you get off your arse and invent one ?

Its a little known fact that the HQ of the British Origami Society, used to be in Prospect Hill.....whoever lived there used to have examples of origami on view in the front window. Now sadly gone. I have to make do with the Roman Archaeology place in York Road, which has a fetching brass plate on the outside wall.

I was going to into an explanatory post, but I think I'll save my trick to amaze pints of people.
All these fascinating little places hiding about, or used to anyway. Who would have known. Well apart from Reg.

The Swindon area does have some interesting Roman heritage....notably Durocornovium, which was excavated in the 60's.....and was roughly in the Covingham/ Dorcan areas. More recently Blunsdon Ridge, which discovery, after a period of great excitement, has gone a bit quiet.

I watched Shaun Of The Dead then Sum Of All Fears then Match Of The Day then went to bed. This morning I had a fry up, cut the lawn then proceeded to dig up half my garden and fixed my shed door. Just about to tuck into Roast Beef and all the trimmings

just woke up  got fucking hammered last night, puked up all morning went to a gayish cabaret club night last night with a girl called julie, it was kind of a first date, thank fuck she has a sense of humour. first act at club was a female stripper who was wearing a tony blair mask, she was waving a 12 inch dildo about, one of the most unnerving things i have ever seen. did alright though, julie has only just left.
