The Knights in White Denim Tour -AKA The White Trash Tour…

To be fair, the last one has some funny moments.
Some funny moments? I laughed so hard I nearly cried. That was completely awesome. I especially loved the blue oval over the guy's face and, um, other identifying feature…
-
I'm hoping to not get in that state whilst in NY
-
Great updates Mega. I've only ever passed through Mansfield so it was good to see what's off the main road, heh. Eagerly anticipating your Sherwood Forest updates although please don't kill my childhood memories if it looks really crap these days!
-
I once again have to say what an outstanding job Mega is doing with his updates. Absolutely fantastic stuff.
-
Yes, outstanding, and so exciting that this leg (or should I say these legs) of the tour will travel to NYC. You’ve raised the bar, Mega!
-
Than you all, I'm trying to plan what to do with them in NYC, suggestions welcome.
-
Just go to reading the updates Mega and they are awesome!
-
I got my cousin to try out the whites for sizing last night, just prior to giving him my 634s, expect a new member soon.
-
Just read all your info bout your town Mega, great stuff. Will wait for the update when you get to the big Apple
Cheers
-
Thanks man.
Large Robin Hood themed post coming up later today. Stay tuned for further updates
-
And so onto the final major post from Nottinghamshire, and what are we famous for Worldwide (apart from petty drug offences and car theft) ? Robin Hood.
Our Robin Hood day out was to be at Sherwood Forest, home of the legendary outlaw in the 12th Century.
I was accompanied by my usual co-conspiritors, respectively decked out IH-MINI, and IH-555-01.
Or as they like to be called, Robin and Marion..
And the sight that you've all been waiting for…..
On the way towards the Sherwood Forest Visitors centre there is this strange field, upon which the English version of Baseball is played…..Cricket. Now, Cricket is far less glamorous than Baseball, less money involved, the uniforms are pretty boring, but watching live is a fantastic excuse to spend an entire drinking.
We entered Ye Olde Sherwood Forest….
Played on Ye Olde playground…
And finally came across Ye Olde Visitors Centre….
-
Or as they like to be called, Robin and Marion..
What I love more than anything is that "Robin" is obviously just standing there and "Marion"is on the tippy toes, really straining to be seen….
-
Finally, we came across Robin Hood himself, mid-tussle with Little John.
We ventured further into the forest, in search of the oldest Oak Tree in Sherwood Forest, The Major Oak.
We consulted Sign posts…
And discovered our destination…
Sorry, wrong thread….
-
We then commenced to "twat around" for a bit…
And browsed some tourist tat (in preparation for NYC).
And observed a man using a Ye Olde, but extremely elaborate, machine for whittling wood….
Discovered a "Halloween" shop in the middle of the forest….
Which is the only place in England I have ever seen selling Tootsie Rolls :-\
