| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> There was a tad more snow than I thought when driving over the hills! | 15:26 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <tsimonq2> Right! | 15:27 |
| ahoneybun | oh man in a few days I turn the big 25 | 17:15 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> @ahoneybun, BIG, would be if the numbers were reversed :P | 17:18 |
| ahoneybun | well 25 is 1/4 my life depending | 17:18 |
| ahoneybun | so still big in this case I think | 17:18 |
| wxl | hah i remember 25 | 18:17 |
| wxl | oh, wait | 18:17 |
| wxl | no i don't | 18:17 |
| ahoneybun | xD | 18:17 |
| valorie | acheronuk: what is the valley we're looking over there? And is that a little stone circle off to the right? | 20:37 |
| valorie | gorgeous there -- we have about that same amount of snow here | 20:38 |
| acheronuk | valorie: The Severn valley. The wall on the right is a slightly tumbledown border wall of a very small church graveyard | 20:55 |
| acheronuk | There are circles and barrows to be found not far away, and the hill in the distance has iron-age earthworks on the top | 20:56 |
| valorie | wow | 20:57 |
| valorie | I've read about the Severn Valley, yes | 20:57 |
| valorie | my background is anthropology, and I'm about 1/4 Scots with lots of other northern European ancestors | 20:58 |
| valorie | those circles, barrows and other earthworks fascinate me | 20:58 |
| valorie | but so do old graveyards | 20:59 |
| acheronuk | Nor far away: http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/uley-long-barrow-hetty-peglers-tump/ | 21:00 |
| valorie | I was a huge fan of lord of the rings in my teens and twenties | 21:01 |
| acheronuk | some of the places here, you feel like you had walked onto the set | 21:01 |
| valorie | well, you have done so! | 21:03 |
| acheronuk | pretty much, based on what Tolkien based his writings on! | 21:03 |
| valorie | all those Inklings tramped about the countryside a lot | 21:04 |
| valorie | NOVA here (PBS science show) has archaelogy shows about digs in England rather often | 21:05 |
| valorie | and also the "how they could build Stonehenge" episodes, which are also fascinating | 21:06 |
| valorie | have you been into the barrow? | 21:08 |
| acheronuk | Oddly no. Something I keep meaning to do. | 21:09 |
| acheronuk | If I do, I'll take pics | 21:09 |
| valorie | if I ever visit your neck of the woods, we'll go | 21:12 |
| valorie | and I'll buy you a pint or two | 21:12 |
| valorie | speaking of travel, are you thinking of coming to Vienna for Akademy? | 21:13 |
| valorie | it will soon be time to ask for funding | 21:13 |
| IrcsomeBot1 | <acheronuk> pondering it | 21:18 |
| valorie | good to hear! | 21:18 |
| valorie | yofel_: you gonna show up this year? | 21:19 |
| valorie | I'd love to have another Kubuntu meeting, a bit better planned this year | 21:19 |
| valorie | last year was incredible, and this promises more -- Vienna is so amazing | 21:20 |
