-Thomas, the head pedagogue of LISPA. Every word from the man's mouth is a pearl of wisdom. Example: "So we see that the larger we make a movement, the smaller is the space it takes up. And the smallest movement of all is respiration, the breath. All theater takes place on the line between these two extremes." Whoa.
-The bureaucracy, which I've already lamented about, but really is kind of astounding. Example: Today I went with Gaidig and Jill (housemates) to register for the National Health Service (hooray for universal healthcare!). We all brought bank statements from our home countries, passports, our housing contract, and the utilities bill. Unfortunately, I was the only one able to register because the utilities bill was in my name only and they don't accept anything except a utilities bill in your name or a bank statement from a UK bank, which can take months to get: they wouldn't even accept the signed housing contract. Oy gevalt!
-Chips and buttey: I haven't had this, but apparently it's a sandwich made of buttered white toast with french fries inside it. *gag*
-Tea and biscuits. It really is all it's cracked up to be.
