Otter Posted January 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Apprently the Isle of Wight isn't part of Britain anymore because it was sold to Russia in the 60's as a nuclear waste dump! Quote Link to comment

weezerboy Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 i looove the minature village in shanklin...so (un)realistic Quote Link to comment
Otter Posted January 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 don't think I've ever been actually, don't know if it's still there. What is halarious is if you ever see an Isle Of Wight booklet, theres always loads of really good things advertised in it like rare tiger parks, theme parks, wildlife centers, strip clubs and things like that, you get here and theres only a model village and a giant falling over a cliff.

lovekraft Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 It's in Europe, Snorky - you know, the place where all that history happened. Quote Link to comment
fidgec94 Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 Ive been to Black Gang Chine. I got some coloured sand in a bottle as a momento of the trip, it was 10years ago! you know, the place where all that history happened. Has anyone seen the Eddie Izzard sketch he did in San Francisco? He referred to europe as "y'know, where the history is" and he imagines US tour guides saying things like "...and this was built 70 YEARS ago". Im not taking the p*ss out of the US, just makes me chuckle Quote Link to comment
Otter Posted January 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 this is so random.... you have no idea. isle of WIGHT???? *** IS THE ISLE OF WIGHT There were pop festivals here in the 70's, Miles Davis,The Who and Bob Dylan played and Jimi Hendrix headlined in 1970. Theyve just started doing it again once a year three years ago. Robert Plant, Ash, Hundred Reasons and Starsailor were the main acts the first year and Iggy Pop, Brian Adams and Counting Crows the second year. David Bowie and Bob Dylan are supposed to be playing this year, and there's been talk of the remaining members of the Who playing! I hope thats true. Quote Link to comment
Hotrock Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 Wan't it the last festival the Jimmy played. Quote Link to comment
