Date: 2010-06-22 05:21 pm (UTC)I glanced at your journal and you seem really cool as well. I've always wanted to visit Scotland, and would love to hear about what it's like there, especially from a cute fellow queer girl's perspective--and hopefully even see more photos. My aunt and cousin live there, but I don't keep in contact with them all that often.
Have you lived there your whole life, or did you move there at some point?
You have awesome taste too, although I feel like that's a cliche whenever I respond with that. I'm more of a Smiths fan than a Morrissey fan, though, but that's only because I haven't heard much of his solo stuff.
I would love to friend/write to you if you'd like. :D Unfortunately, I don't post much in my LJ proper lately except to vent about things, though I'm trying to change that. I would definitely love to exchange letters the old-fashioned penpal way, though!

Cheers!

Date: 2010-07-06 05:45 pm (UTC)i'm not that good with snail mail to be honest...i mean you've seen how long it taken me to reply to this comment so imagine that time a billion.
scotland is not too remarkable tbh. i'm from glasgow but i moved to london to go to university when i was 17 and i just moved back last year so its been like moving to a new city. its a great city to live in but a little boring if yr queer.
you should get on hearing his solo stuff *controversially* i think its better than the smiths, not as good musically but a lot more personal. although his recent things have been dire. i recommend viva hate.
shall we be lj friends?

Date: 2010-07-06 06:10 pm (UTC)if yr cousin lives here you should get back in touch. its not an amazing city but its great to visit. i think tourists are always surprised because by reputation its a pretty rough city (highest number of stabbings in europe, its home to the biggest drug problems and the most poverty in britain too) but the architecture is really amazing, and the people are super friendly.
holy hell, you have the internet woman. just download it and find out!
