    Default Totally Off Topic - Anyone in London/Ireland

    Myself and a few others will be in London this Sunday and spend a few days there. Then we will head to Dublin for St. Paddy's Day. Just throwing it out there if any of my fellow degenerate online gamblers need a break from College Basketball for a few days and want to join us. Also, i have a few questions if any of you guys are situated over there right now.

    What is the best way to carry money? Are US ************ widely accepted over there? Are currency exchanges widely available accessable?

    Just a side note, i am a college student and my fellow companions are college students so massive drinking, womanizing and yelling while drunk watching sports will be involved, it should be a grand time had by all.

    The UK and Eire use different currency, Eire uses Euro's and the UK uses Sterling. Yes your ************ will be fine in shops and in cash points (atms).


    Dont get pi$$ed up like you do in the USA and start shouting your mouths off because you WILL attract violence, its a very different culture over here.

    true, it does say"alot" (allot), but it is however the reality. The UK is a very violent place, and if a bunch of yank students come over here getting pissed up and being mouthy then they will be -400 to get a slapping, right or wrong its the reality.

    It does seem like UK guys like to fight, one of reasons though is they are loaded all the time. I would love to see UK guys fuk with NY mob guys and end up with bullets in their fukkin heads the next day.

    the dudes not saying he hates americans
    he's giving a warning about how one should behave in a culture which one knows nothing about
    unless the person going over is a badass mobster himself packing weapons (which he got past security)
    i wouldnt suggest being hostile towards the natives on their own turf
    by the way i dont think thats what these guys have in mind anyway
    this thread jus took a crazy turn is all

    sounds like a great time
    i wish i could go

    I know guys that go to other countries and want to start troble but are fukkin loaded with artillery, hand guns, knives, wood chucks and mini explosives. I think it is a message sender not to fuk with Americans. I knew one guy that tried and steal a UK girl from her man and the UK guy and his friends were going to jump him but the American through some type of bomb at their feet and hurt like 4 guys.

    I would be entertained by you trying to get on the plane to the UK with a bomb... We can set the over/under on your arrest at about 15 seconds.

    I've been to Dublin a few times. Once on Saint Patricks Day, this is a great time! I just finished up my masters so I was prob. around your age. You can act just as you would in America and you will be fine.

    One thing is for certain though, you will have a blast!
