Sunday afternoon..

[Andy D.]

Bit of a fun thread here (I hope - please no debates over India versus China's schooling system, the decline of the US or whether the EU will collapse )

It's Sunday afternoon and I have to work today. So if you can spend your Sunday afternoon doing something fun, what would be your choice.

For me, it would probably be sitting in a decent pub over in England (Brighton has some great places) with a Sunday Roast and a good pint of local ale or Scrumpy.

How about the rest of you?

 

[Andy Nguyen]

Football and beer, of course. Not the kind of football and beer you find in the UK pub, mind you.

beer you find in the UK pub

Not a fan of hand-pumped ale? I went to the English fish-and-chip shop down on Greenwich ave a few months back. It's well worth a visit if you can cope with your arteries crying in pain after

I'm not that sophisticated when it comes to alcoholic beverages but a cold ale sounds refreshing during this weather.

I went on a vacation a few months ago and I wouldn't mind spending a few months in the Caribbeans by the pool that has a swim-up bar. I can connect to Quantnet and work while being poolside. Now, that's quality work-life balance right there

 

[Andy D.]

Andy -- haha oh yes that sounds great. We were planning on heading to Peurto Rico this year for a bit of a beach holiday and a visit round the historical sites.
The bar in the pool scenario was most appealing. Unfortunately moving house put a a hold on it for the moment.

If you are a fan of hard cider, a cold pint of West Country Scrumpy, from England hits the spot in this heat.

Videogames, or hanging out with my friends watching a sports game.

Maybe we'll meet you there in PR.
We went to Mexico (Cancun) this year and planning for some other place to go next summer. PR, DR all seem nice and not too long a flight.
My son stays in the kiddie pool everyday and that's why we spend most of our time in the nearby adult pool.

 

[Andy D.]

Andy, yep PR is not too bad a flight it would seem. I hear Aruba is great and Bermuda. If you happen to be in PR at the same time as me, I will most def buy you a drink

Books, movies, and games is the reality but football and beer of the UK-variety sounds better

A crisp bubbly and Test Match Cricket.
