Belfast

stokebailey Jan 31st, 2014 05:11 AM

Time to organize the Belfast GTG, because me, too.

Can't be the dog, because I put Hate Animals since there was no "prefer no pets" option.

I changed four things, after researching and rejecting "parmo", still got Belfast. Was it picking 2010's?

raincitygirl Jan 31st, 2014 05:24 AM

London, as it should be!

IMDonehere Jan 31st, 2014 05:42 AM

I got Paris. I got Liverpool? It said something about glam. I am just about the most unglam-ourous person I know.

Sign me on for the Belfast GTG too.Was it the cat or the kebab that got me there?

London for me. Wearing a nice woolly jumper, watching Sherlock with the cat on my lap, reminiscing about the 80s and sipping a cup of earl grey. Sounds rather more home counties. What is chippy sauce? Is it some colloquial term for curry sauce?

I don't know what chippy sauce is, but here in Belgium it's chips with mayonaise, particularly good after one too many Belgian beers.

I got Liverpool. But three of the questions I could have easily picked at least 4 different answers- and on the decade and Cumberbatch questions I could really have ticked almost every box.

London! (Oh, I wish!) Though I've daydreamed of a remote bothy in the Lake District or a cottage in Stanton or a hunting tower on some vast estate in Derbyshire. Heck, I'm willing to be a decorative hermit in some aristocrat's folly if there are any takers.

I got Bora Bora. At least they got the weather right but the location is a bit remote I have to say having been there. Dog as a food after getting drunk does work well. I think it is the chewiness (which results in excess saliva secretions) that works out the toxins.

Thank goodness for that 'opt out of the UK' choice. Otherwise the test would be useless.

I picked 2010, coffee, fish and chips, Barbour jacket, Rugby Union, dog and got Belfast.

Got Cornwall which is OK. Lived in London and Hants. Think I got Cornwall because chose the turquoise and surfing - didn't have tennis among the choices.

IMDonehere Jan 31st, 2014 10:17 AM

Someone put something similar about the United States on Facebook and I got the 19th century.

Dickie_Gr Jan 31st, 2014 10:30 AM

I got The Turks and Caicos.

stokebailey Jan 31st, 2014 10:33 AM

flpab, me too except no pets, UK football, and jumper.

I've only gotten drunk once as a teenager, and there was no food around at the time, so I was guessing on the fish n chips.

dwdvagamundo Jan 31st, 2014 11:07 AM

On this one I got Liverpool, which is not terrible, as I visited Liverpool this spring.

I did one for the entire world earlier and got Rio, which I could settle for. Must the football answer!

nytraveler Jan 31st, 2014 11:19 AM

I got London and Michael Caine - who I have always adored. He's SO funny.

Smeagol Jan 31st, 2014 11:27 AM

Me too ny traveler:)

MaineGG Jan 31st, 2014 12:03 PM

I put cheese toastie, a nice jumper, 1960s, cat, football, and green tea. I got Liverpool, which is very interesting since I actually lived there for a few years in the 1960s. Except for 1960s and football, don't see how the other answers figured in. I did like Liverpool.
