The first, with a good friend of mine, passed with the most pointless conversations about all manner of subjects, many of them listed on this blog now. &#13;
&#13;
The second trip was with a new girlfriend along a similar route. About 30 minutes into our journey and conscious of the thousands of miles ahead of us travelling together, I enquired "So, what's your top 5 films of all time?" She replied "Oh I don't like conversations like that."&#13;
&#13;
I then realised that there was a point after all to the pointless conversations I had had 2 years previously, if nothing more than to enjoy endless hours of being stuck with someone travelling. </subtitle><generator version="1.0">MokoFeed</generator><updated>2009-11-07T22:14:17+01:00</updated><entry><id>tag:traveltalk.blog.co.uk,2008-01-14:/2008/01/14/which_historical_event_would_you_travel_~3577905/</id><title>Which historical event would you travel back in time and witness if you could, any why?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://traveltalk.blog.co.uk/2008/01/14/which_historical_event_would_you_travel_~3577905/"/><author><name>nrjclemons</name></author><published>2008-01-14T23:20:02+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-14T23:20:02+01:00</updated><content type="html">&lt;p&gt; &lt;small&gt; &lt;a href="http://traveltalk.blog.co.uk/2008/01/14/which_historical_event_would_you_travel_~3577905/#comments"&gt;Comments&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/small&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</content></entry><entry><id>tag:traveltalk.blog.co.uk,2008-01-13:/2008/01/13/what_are_the_worst_football_kits_ever~3572231/</id><title>What are the worst football kits ever?</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://traveltalk.blog.co.uk/2008/01/13/what_are_the_worst_football_kits_ever~3572231/"/><author><name>nrjclemons</name></author><published>2008-01-13T21:51:47+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-13T21:57:01+01:00</updated><content type="html">	&lt;p&gt;Coventry City - 1970's brown away kit (http://www.spaotp.com/2006/09/obscure-kits-from-british-football.html)&lt;/p&gt;
