In just over a week I will be jetting off and will be getting drunk in new surroundings.
The Thursday Night Club is going on a world tour........well we are shipping out to New York. This destination has been the basis for many comedy e-mail subjects let me tell you................but I won't because, well they weren't that good.
Anyway, I have traded in some of my hard earned £'s for $'s. It has been pointed out to me that only American people can say "bucks". I wasn't to sure till I heard someone say "bucks" in their English accent and I have to agree it sounds horrible.
American money is odd. I thought all notes were green, but the tens are orange. Or maybe I have fake money?
The things we will get up to?
Empire States Building
Central Park
Drinking
A Film Museum
Drinking
General Tom Foolery
And Drinking.
Thats my plan anyway. No idea what the others want to do.
Some slight issues with the trip.
I am scared crapless about flying and general small spaces. So the idea of sitting on a plane for 7 odd hours isn't exactly what I would call a good time. Hopefully I will be sat no where near the other lads so they won't see me turn into a big girly mess on the plane.
I have bought a new Henry Rollins spoken word mp3 from iTunes specifically for the plane. Plus I am planning on sleeping a lot of the journey.
The lift to the top of the Empire States Builing doesn't sound like a barrel of laughs either, but you have to do it, cause you are in New York.
I don't wanna be like a sad person from work that went to Egypt and DIDN'T go to the Pyramids.
I will try my damndest to post a blog when I am in New York though. It won't be the first international post, *tips hat to Kel Kel* but it will be a first for me.
There will hopefully be more posts before I leave you and get discovered.
But till then keep it real.
Oh and this is the accent of people I will be surrounded by.
Enjoy.......

But there'll also be drinking, right?
I believe "Mad Props" go to KellyForSale for the vid - Thanks for warning Craig, and therefore us all.
I'm not sure what "Mad Props" are. Maybe something like an angry propeller, or an insane fake knife.
Was I the person that proved that English people can't say 'bucks'? Or did someone else beat me to the punchening?
Eitherways, I needs to get me some of these dollarpounds. Or as I call them, 'beer exchange vouchers'.
Rickland: I don't give enough props, mad or otherwise. But I shall indeed give "Mad props to my home girl Kel Kel" for the video.
Trench: No it wasn't you it was Bazz from work. It Was The Amazing Sarah that pointed out that only Americans and Australians can get away with saying Bucks. And she is really right.
As for the C word......... NO-ONE SHOULD EVER SAY THAT!
Also Robert Englund should never say Bitch.
He just can't pull it off.
It's true! I learned by sounding stupid... well, stupider. I'm just passing on my wisdom :-)
Ha! Got yer wisdom!

"As for the C word......... NO-ONE SHOULD EVER SAY THAT!"
Especially not Carrie-Anne Moss in Memento:
"Maybe your CONT of a wife [some filth] and turned you into a retard."
Dammit, now I am wisdomless once more! I take my eye off it for a second... and end up looking like a retard once again!
Hahaha I'm glad my tips helped..
Er, ten dollar bills are supposed to be green still...???
You might want to get that checked out.
HAVE FUN AND DRINK!!!!
Fool me twice... and my secret shame is made public.
