when I'm at other peoples' houses?

I love to go on the Internet, and I always find my way to this site. It's okay, when I'm at my flat or my Clubhouse. It's not okay, when I'm visiting relatives, such as my parents' or my other relatives, in that matter. What other websites can I visit, when I'm visiting people?

My interests include


:arrow: Routemasters
:arrow: Weight Loss
:arrow: Self Improvement
:arrow: Vintage Christmas Trees and decorations
:arrow: Television history
:arrow: The 1960s
:arrow: Self Improvement
:arrow: Dogs
:arrow: Cats

Any suggestions are welcome. You can post them here, or PM some links to me.

Flickr can be quite interesting, especially if you like photography as a going hobby and are able to join in and comment on the pictures of Flickr members local to your area without making an idiot of yourself. Only costs about £12 or so to join for a year. Photography might not be to your taste but I thought it was worth mentioning, in any case.

The site's not up yet, but it will be back on Dec 25th. It's basically a site about TV history, mainly in the UK, though.

If you like the '60's, I think you should go to http://www.retrojunk.com

It has a lot of things you can download and look at, especially from the '60s!
