Yes I was looking at it for some time and was very confused for a moment. Maybe because I thought the window was at the back of the bus
It was the same when I was in London two years ago. Damn the mind has to get used to that system, even if you are not driving car but walking.
Maybe Jarre is composing a new album about his experience on UK motorways, entitled "Stuck In A Jam"

that sounds like an album to be written for our roads as well... only ours would need a neverending album of remixes called "Holes"... Holes 1, Holes 2, Holes 3... Holes 179... he'd definitely have plenty of material for that if he came here again

well, YOU do not know what a relief it was for me to read that EVEN the UK can have bad roads just like us I've always lived under the impression that our roads are the worst... Good to know there's others out there with holes in their streets

Here in the UK we have signs in many towns that read, for example my town "Willenhall - Twinned With Drancy, France". We should also now have "This Pot Holed Road Twinned With . . . "
Looks like Tomas Alsina is about to take over the playing.
I think he is holding a tiny camcorder though.

we have that as well in some villages and towns, but really, I always fail to see the connection between the two places. anywayz, back on the ontopic of the offtopic - if you've got approx. 10-15 holes per street then yep, twinned with some streets at the back of my neighbourhood if you've got less than 10, then it's ok - twinned with my street (which was, by the way, freshly re-constructed last year... strangely, same holes appeared this year)
now getting ontopic of the ontopic - cool view from the top deck
Yep, and he is multi-tasking. Playing music, Yoga and travelling.

Sounds like a drive up to Ohio to visit my wife's family!

That' okay- as long as the guys don't start to sing...

I do want to hear JMJ sing on the 2nd leg of the tour, if I can go to one of the concerts.
