In the same booth?

My partner and I vote together, but we get our slips and mange to draw the X without eating the pencil in a seperate booth.

We don’t really have ā€˜booths’. Just a table sort of thing with dividers. So yeah, we kind of voted together…

Our tables are a tiny triangle!

Yeah same here with an awkward divider.

From the other day;

The process is stupidly complicated and outdated, but the people working here are genuinely lovely, helpful and very curious about gringos who have lived in their country. Had a great conversation with the consulate team about my time in Peru, the experiences in the country and their experiences living in England.

Enjoy! Hope the weather is good for you, and yeah, don’t do what I did :grimacing:

I was sober when I crashed and I’ve never crashed after a beer after lunch. Take that information however you like :laughing:

I’m back in the UK this weekend, and out at Butlins with some friends. We had very low expectations, but it’s actually been really good!

Except for one of my mates. The apartments here use RFID cards for access. At about 0500 he sleepwalked out of the front door trying to find the loo. Ended up being stuck out in the cold for a few hours as the knocking didn’t wake any of us up!

Out in his jammies wondering around the site bare foot trying to find someone to help, but there was no one :sob:

Eventually he managed to wake someone up in our apartment, who then ignored the knocking thinking out was just some nutter outside, and went back to sleep. Even messaged in our group chat asking what the hell the knocking noise was. :joy: Eventually he woke back up and found our mate outside :joy:

When a prop is the top try scorer for Wales. The front row union has to stick together.

Back in the regulars, I was often asked to help with the flag carrying at Twickenham; England use the regular forces for their flags displays at home.

Scotland take a different approach. This weekend gone, RAFAC had the honours.

I’m not linking, due to Meta deciding to name the people who share, but below are the images from West of Scotland Wing

They had the ACF flagbearing for Scotland-Wales a couple weeks ago - although they had two welsh flags and no Scottish! :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

(Admittedly I was up in the nosebleeds so might have just not seen the Scottish flag)

They look very similar at a distance…

…If you squint, have had several pints and may not actually be looking at the pitch :wink:

RAFAC have had the privilege of assisting at Murrayfield for a number of years, the Region are now rotating it through the Wings as it was primarily one Wing taking the lead. It’s a fantastic opportunity for the Cadets and CFAVs.

Literally not my first rodeo any more.

I also now have cowboy boots. Because why not.

Surprised some men didn’t come and bundle you in a car and kick you out the country.
