    Well I have to say the shittest place I ever lived in Southampton was Thornhill. What a dump. I preffered Denzil Ave over that anyday. At least it was never boring!

    I've always had nice food in Wetherspoons (the Stockport and Cheadle ones) - I don't think anyone on here lives near me... but anyway!

    My favourite pub is probably the Nelson Tavern on the A6 in Stockport if anyone knows it... either that or The Otters near college - for a sneaky pint of Stella in between lessons :D:p

    Beyond me why you want to live in Gibraltar... I mean, all we have is cheap booze, cheap fags, great atmosphere, next door to Spain, umm... ;)

    The shops are better over here though :o

    Yeah, but for fun you could go and torment the Rock Apes? I went to see them... they were scary but cool :p lol

    We had this tour guide called Charlie, he was so amazing... he was christened 'THE Diamond Geezer'. I think half of my camera was just photos of Charlie :D

    I hate to say it, but tour guides = rip off merchants! i could give you a better tour, and show you round some of the more interesting sites. like the entrance to ComCen, also known as the Eye Of The Med... big tracking facility for fone conversations etc etc
    And leave the monkeys alone you!!

    Aww, I didn't go near the monkeys, I was too scared :( lol

    I didn't payt for the tour, my mates Mum and Dad did so I don't mind :) But next time I'm there I will give you a bell :)

    I'm saying next time - hopefully I'll be living there!!! :D lol

    Is it true that the monkeys sometimes come down the rrock into the town?! :eek2:

    Yes! Very true. They come down around Landport, which is the main entrance to main street, near casemates, which is bad.
    Another little known fact, is even tho they are called Barbary Apes, they were wrongly classified when discovered, they are actually a species of tail-less monkey :p
    And they are lovely, just keep ur valuables locked up :)

    Well...

    "The 'Rock Ape' is in fact a monkey, the Barbary macque (macaca sylvanus) an African primate"... blah blah blah... "However they still occasionally descend to the town in small groups, perhaps to look at the tourists?"

    That's little bits off my leaflet I got in 'the silver shop' in Casemates Arcade. My mate got some monkey earrings, they're cool :p

    Wow, I feel like I actually know something :p:D lol
