The scenery is even prettier in person than in the movie.

- that was even better than my 'you guys GOBBLED-UP the Q/CLUE for 'The Warchman's Gone'....lol..for seasonal Holiday observation. snicker.

Seriously, it sounds very atmospheric there. A friend of mine in town here that worked for the same Gov't agency as I quit, and then went into business for himself, now successful after 6 years, commented that he doubted he ever would have done that without having the "somewhat different view of life & things in general after his trip to the U.K. - notably Scotland, his family heritage homeland trip; along with Western Europe on a shoestring. He felt the trip was very enlightening when compared to his workaday tunnelvision view of the world; it used to be the window looking out on other Gov. Bldgs., and he no sense of perspective by zooming OUT on the map of HIS personal world, and seeing there is far more out there , and few of us ever get the 'round to it' to see. For him, life changing. Any corollaries Linda?

GAME UPDATE - sorry guys , what I thought I could have out tonight, the X-files at least, I could not, but surely will tomorrow. Got caught in the 'big freeze' again, for those I have explained that too, and will be hapy to for anyone else curious. Also will have the new 10 Clue's tomorrow, assuming we knock out those last two - Q226, AND Q234 in this list!
