I was curious so I googled Orime. Google thought I meant prime so I choose the 'search for orime instead' link below.

First link was a manga book on amazon with no english translation. Second was a greek singer. I thought I'd try image search instead. The first image was anime and I followed it back to the website.

Warning! NMS

quote:

Gluttonous by nature, Orime is a ninja with two mouths and four eyes (the mouth being at the back of her head and the additional eyes on her shoulder blades). During their first sexual intercourse, Rance has the mouth at the back of her head open and try to eat him, though he successfully managed to stop it. From that point on, they only had sex in the missionary position. Seen as a divine spirit by certain individuals, Orime took advantage of this to take some food offerings in Oda.

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

The only factor missing from a characterization as an emerging market country, Dembik said, is a currency crisis, with the British pound holding firm despite the litany of macroeconomic headwinds.

“It only dropped 0.70% against the euro and 1.50% against the U.S. dollar over the past week. Our bet: after surviving Brexit uncertainty, we don’t see what could push the sterling pound into a free fall.”

I’ve wanted to climb Snowdon and hike Offa’s Dyke ever since my Welsh relatives visited when I was a kid, and finally have the time and money to do it. Should I do something else in Wales? I was also going to see the Swans play, but was mostly hoping to be in the north.

If there are better summits and trails so I don’t come across as another Canadian afflicted with nostalgia and romanticism for Wales, I’d be down.

I really liked Elan Valley. Not much in the way of climbing I don't think but it's a lovely walk.

Thanks, that looks great and wasn’t on any of the routes I had planned.

gonadic io posted:

I heard it’s more of a hike, yeah. I was thinking Offa’s Dyke trail would be more of a challenge and Snowdon would be a one day detour.

When I did some of the higher peaks in the Canadian rockies there was still trash there from the 70’s, so I imagine anywhere tourists can just walk up is pretty gross. What a shame.

e: Last question - is there anything about the backcountry in the UK that’s very different? I just get a permit same as here and check in if I have to? Probably no bears?

I don't think permits are a thing (??) You can even walk into armed forces ranges in some areas, there's usually just a gate and warning sign when they're active, if you fancy dodging shells.

There's lots of open access with rights of way: https://www.gov.uk/right-of-way-open-access-land/use-your-right-to-roam

you can wander all over the countryside. Some farmers and country folk get a bit uppity about ramblers but they can't do much about it if you're following the rules

Checking in...uhhh maybe if you're doing a big climb? It's not a thing I've ever been asked to do but then I don't get more adventurous than walking a steep hill, ideally with a pub at the end of the route
