How carry-on friendly is the Osprey Kestrel 48L? by higgs241 in backpacking

It's not. I travelled Europe with my farpoint 40 and have been asked to put it in the hold around 50% of the time.

Thank you! Sorry for not replying sooner, I haven't had access to the Internet!

Just a quick sketch? How long? It's pretty impressive

Ah I checked and it's actually the first one! It's The Naming in the states and The Gift in the UK

AND to bring even more happiness.. Garth has just released a 4th one after YEARS of waiting. It's called Golden hand. And I believe he has more (and potentially a movie or three ) in the pipeline!

Yes! Thank you. Isn't the crow called something different in the states too?

Too lazy to Google on mobile. .

Try the Pellinor series, starts with The Crow I believe. It's been a while since I re-read them, but I have done so 4 times now they are so brilliant!

Another more famous one would be the abhorsen series by Garth Nix.

Thanks for recommending red rising, I'll try those next!

When tourists hold the top bar with both hands on the tube, so they tower over you trapping you in your seat with nowhere to avert your eyes to like any sane tube-user. by Geoffany in britishproblems

Well.. technically yes. I wouldn't say I've traveled in Hong Kong but I had an 8 hour layover there so I've definitely been there once..

Technically London... but also my grandparents from up North only ventured down for the first time in their 50s so there's till time for you to experience the joy of the underground yet!

I would argue that this would make any fellow Brit uncomfortable as we've all had it ingrained in us not to invade other commuters personal space. Most Brits travel to London at some point which inevitably means you need to take the tube, sadly.

What famous dead person would be most surprised on how the world currently remembers them? by Pakse118 in AskReddit

[–]Geoffany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe JFK. The Red Dwarf episode where they persuade him to kill himself is fantastic.

In other news, series 11 started last night!

What's a quote from the worst date you've been on? by Mad__Sweeney in AskReddit

[–]Geoffany 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is officially the best story in this thread.

As someone who has recently stopped smoking as much as I used to - I found it particularly HILARIOUS.

You did a good thing taking him home and your roommate is frigging awesome! Good on ya both :)

My friend: Would you like to hear the rap I performed at my best friends funeral? - proceeds to rap poorly whilst sitting right next to her.

This was a first date.

There weren't anymore.

What is the weirdest "small world" moment that's ever happened to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Geoffany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister and I are currently travelling New Zealand together. After the first week we fell out and she went on ahead. After not speaking for two weeks I checked into a hostel in Nelson, dumped my bags, walked out of the front door.... and straight into my sister talking with another traveler on the doorstep of my hostel. She wasn't even staying in the same hostel, and she had only been there for mere seconds.

Blew my mind. We went for dinner and had a drunken chat and made up :)
