Wait, how are you banned? And dude, the coast line here, then Devon and Cornwall, totally sold me on this place. Like. Seriously much. Plymouth has tons of similarities to my current place in Germany, but the coast is rather fucking amazing. So looking forward to exploring things here
I was down for a friend's wedding, just spending half an hour on the Hoe watching the ships come in when this sharp-dressed middle aged man asked if he could sit down beside me (the place was empty - every other bench was vacant) then proceded to tell me he had a magazine in his briefcase I might like...
Naturally I declined. So he goes on to tell me the magazine's free and he gives them out to all the young people he sees. Then he starts mentioning God.
I told him to keep his magazine as it looked expensive and I'd only leave it on the bench and litter the place. He thanked me for my honesty and asked me what had brought me to Plymouth.
I said I was in town for the sailors.
Immediately he snapped his briefcase shut, jumped up, and explained he was on the council and trying to get that kind of thing stopped.
Bet he thought twice about annoying anyone else that day though :D
HAHA omg best story ever! LOL. I have to admit all the cute British boys in preppy uniforms make me go 'whoa man, whoooa' LOL. Age of consent is 16 here isn't it... just making sure LOL. No idea how young they are, but I got a thing for the preppy stuff. and the emo boy haircuts to go with them.
I got a nice B&B on Union Street. Wasn't until I met up with my friend later that day that I found out that was the most notorious red light area in the town...
Wasn't anything odd about the B&B to my eyes. Except for the warning notice not to put hands down the U-bend in the toilet and the strange noise of grinding blades every time it was flushed.
