National Bovine's European Vacation II: Facebook Status Edition

[spectralbovine]

Given that I have yet to do a more extensive post about my adventures in Budapest and Barcelona, this may realistically be all you get regarding my adventures in England and Scotland (I haven't even finished writing down my notes from the trip). But my Facebook status updates do summarize my trip quite well!

Had a feeling you were passing through these parts, although there's basically no overlap between what you saw and what I've seen in this country. Give or take that I'm now going to think of AssCreed II every time I see St Paul's. Bah!

oooo, fun! I've been envying, I mean thinking about you and wondering what this trip was like.

Isn't black currant AWESOME? I don't tend to drink much soda anymore, but if I were over there, I'd totally have a Ribena Spark.

I didn't have a Ribena Spark, but I was disappointed by the straight-up Ribena I had on my last day, as it didn't seem to have much kick at all. Hell, the apple-and-blackcurrant Drench I had, which was ostensibly FLAVORED WATER, had much more flavor to it than the juice box.

I'm not a big fan of Ribena mixed with plain water, but somehow as a soda it works really well for me. Vimto, on the other hand, I remember disliking because it was artificially sweetened. I know not of this Drench you mention. I got to have blackcurrant scones on Sunday, though, which yum!

Yay! You found some beans on toast. I was wondering if you'd found any. Also it was very nice to meet you!

Beans and toast! Booyah!
