What would you like?

[–] BrandNewPoster (10996) a year ago

A t shirt with your picture on it.

Ooooh. Stranger Things, eh? My 14-year-old granddaughter and I just started watching the series on Netflix this past Tuesday evening when she did a sleepover with me. As a gift to her, I subscribed just so she could watch it. I told her I'd keep Netflix until she can watch all seasons.

ALI LOVES THE SHOW...I THINK WE HAVE WATCHED ALL BUT THE RECENT SEASON.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

My daughter & I have started binge watching it (I’ve already seen it) - she loves Eleven.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) a year ago

Eleven kicks ass!
I enjoyed all of the characters, especially the metalhead dude.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

It reminded me of when I was growing up in Florida (minus the Upside Down and the monsters of course), lol.

[–] GlenEllyn (21660) a year ago

Same with my granddaughter. Eleven!

She likes shows with weird characters and plot twists. She watched all the Teen Wolf seasons and the recent movie. She's reading Chinese mythology now, too.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

It’s great to form a bond through the medium of TV and film.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) a year ago

I'm jealous of her, that show was excellent, one of those shows that are so good you wish you could forget it and rewatch all of the surprises over again.

[–] TheHardSell (2087) a year ago

Cool, I have never been to Europe!

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

You should go, it’s very interesting.

[–] TheHardSell (2087) a year ago

I would love to see Bucketham Palace but fear Europe is too poor and underdeveloped vs America. Also the crime there, arab muslin terrorists everywhere. The subway is deemed dangerous, however I hear you can live like a king one $1 per day, eat , drink, party & enjoy the hotels for only 1 x $ per day. That is a huge factor to go. For only $100 bucks you can live like a king for months.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

Fortunately, it’s nothing like that at all.

📌does your wife attend all these events? she must be exhausted.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

The beauty of having a younger wife, lol.

Have fun. I love London and it's been a very long time since I was there.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

I love visiting London, but could never live here.

[–] StoneKeeper (28408) a year ago

You guys will have a lot of fun!!

Enjoy!

Over here it’s our fiscal year end so it’s the most busy time of the year.

I need a vacation man.

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

It’s the Tax Year End here in the UK too, but we have drilled all our clients to get it all over and done with by Mid March, so that I can enjoy my birthday and Easter.

He's licensed to cuddle.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) a year ago

Looks like a blast! Tell us how the Stranger Things show goes when you can Andy. Enjoy and safe travels:)

[–] AndyKing1967 (39871) a year ago

Will do - the Stranger Things tickets were part of my birthday present, so fingers crossed 🤞
