SHOCK

the eagle has landed
fireseed touched down in the uk
fascinating myself with the culture shock of uk/england/brum
so far it seems almost as hard to communicate with my fellow countrymen
as it was with my south korean pals
who spoke a completely different language
a few first impressions of the motherland
england has a very very run-down look to it
like everything has gone to the dogs
basic services are C-R-A-P
school gates desperately need a lick of paint
i am staggered by some the prices of basic necessities
it costs ya a cool forty pence (800 won)
to make a five-second local call from a phone box
it costs ya a hefty £1.40 (2600 won)
to take a twenty-minute bus ride into town
the 10% of brits who make up the so-called 'underclass'
(the untouchable unemployables) must really feel it!
using public transport exposes you to a veritable rogue's gallery
the filthy-mouthed
the yobbish
the plain nutty...
physically speaking
a lotta people are in a dreadful state
enormous sagging guts and behinds are pretty much de rigeur
sartorially speaking
things are not much better
it's dagenham cleavage everywhere i look...
no internet connection at present
but will try to blog again soon from the public library
adieu
