I'm going to England on Friday. Anything you'd like me to pass

[democrat in Tallahassee]

along. Like, Thanks for all the help? Should I take my Kerry/Edwards shirt? I don't want them to hate me right off the bat cause I'm an American.

[edbermac]

1. Wear your 'Bush is a stupid fucking git' T-shirt...

Whatever a git is...

[barb162]

24. what's a git

[Sanity Claws]

2. Tell the folks on Downing Street we need more memos.

Originals with Tony's signature on them would be best.
Also, tell the Queen to stop wearing those silly hats. They went out of style more than 40 years ago.

[Coexist]

3. kiss Nightengale for me!

Oh, and offer him/her some tea.

[Taxloss]

4. We don't hate Americans.

You'll find we're friendly really.

Are you coming to London?

[democrat in Tallahassee]

6. going to be in Cambridge for a month, researching my

dissertation. Am passing through London on Sat. morning. I was in London last year and I loved it.
Please tell everyone that we're not all stupid.

[Taxloss]

8. I studied for my BA in Cambridge, at Clare. A lovely town.

It's very American-friendly. Now I live in London. And if I thought you were all stupid, would I be here?

[democrat in Tallahassee]

10. I'm going to be working in the archives at Newnham and in the

university library.

[Taxloss]

17. Opposite the UL is Clare's Memorial Court.

I lived there for two years; first on R, then on M.

[barb162]

23. Cambridge is such a beautiful looking school

[GreenPartyVoter]

5. Bring me back a trinket?

[democrat in Tallahassee]

7. how bout a bookmark? About all I have room for.

[GreenPartyVoter]

14. Cool! :^D

[lukasahero]

9. My apologies?

That seems somehow insufficient.

I'd wear the shirt and get a bumper sticker for your luggage. And have a blast!

:-)

[RBHam]

11. You've just been reported to Homeland Security.

No doubt, some Freeper is calling the TIPS line right now.
What you and your EVILDuer insurgents are planning to "pass along" to England will be creatively hypothesized.

Of course, there's a lot of democrats in tallahassee visiting England, so I wouldn't worry...

Im being half facetious, here...

but...

watch your back.

[democrat in Tallahassee]

12. Thanks. I am alway on the lookout.

[Benbow]

13. Wear a www.sorryeverybody.com t-shirt

That would be good: both understated (in the way appreciated by Brits) as well as unambiguous. Most of us have access to the web now.

[DURHAM D]

15. Bring me a Crunchie please.

Also, need a pack of Digestives.

[democrat in Tallahassee]

16. will do. just tell me what it is:-)

[DURHAM D]

18. Crunchie = candy bar. Be sure to try. Digestive =

kind of a not very sweet graham cracker. The Brits eat them after dinner with cheese and fruit, hence the name digestive. Sounds awful but tastes good. Truth is I like to eat them with cream cheese and lemon curd.

That's another thing - try the lemon curd.

If you have free time take the train up to Scotland. Take the overnight sleeper - will save you a night's lodging and time.

19. Tell them we're sorry our idiot dragged their idiot along

on the fool's errand in Iraq.

[HeeBGBz]

20. Bring back some truth in media

I hear they still have some of that over there.

[ComerPerro]

21. Tell them that Bush does not speak for us

He can barely even speak for himself...

[DemoTex]

22. Tell them "thank you" for their blood-toll in Iraq. Then weep with them.

Right or wrong, their trust in us is remarkable. Too bad we usurped it. Tell the dear English that we are working to mend ways. Ask .. no, pray they join us in a worldwide movement against Bu$h and for peace and justice. Together we will beat these madmen and see them in the dock at the Hague. The sooner the better.

Bon Voyage!
