Has Anyone Been To Reykjavik?

First topic message reminder :

Am thinking of going in February for 3 or 4 nights, anyone got any advice about hotels, places to visit etc? Have had a virtual drive-round on google maps and it looks like a giant suburb.

Nearly six and half quid for a glorified sandwich! You crazy southerners. I can eat out for that.

Awesome stuff.

The large one is no glorified sandwich, I just about have to carry it over my shoulder on the way back to the office. The small one which is still pretty decently-sized is £4.45 which works out at £4 average for 10.

Should've done really. Good point and one I will remember for next year.

I'm pleased my parents didn't bring me back some boxer shorts then. Imagine the kerfuffle at the airport!

That is the sort of information we have been looking for.

Have you been? Please tell Galted you have.

Bloody hell, some genuine advice!  Completely ruins all my gift ideas though.

And getting quoted in 3 consecutive posts must be a first.

I could do with some boxers with an Iceland flag on them right now. It may be psychological but my current pair are just not sitting right at the moment.

No sorry I haven't been.
 
And I just discovered they banned strip clubs in Iceland in 2010.
 
Sorry Galted... anyone know anything about Greenland?

I know someone who knew someone who flew from Iceland to Greenland and back, apparently it was very expensive.

Were not doing a thread on Greenland till we find someone who has been to Reykjavik.

Should have swam like the polar bear did.

Banned strip clubs? Illegal to sell panties or thongs with the flag on? They know how to have fun in Iceland!

I knew someone who died there last year

I'll spread the word about Tino's Culture Cup, we should be up to about round 10 by the time I go. Might be an idea to do a separate Icelandic version.

Is Greenland classed as Europe or North America?

It's supposedly Denmark.

Please lets do an Icelandic version! All answers and comments must be in Icelandic as well.

Is it owned by the Danes?

Apparently, which is odd when you compare the sizes. It's like living in a tiny bedsit and having a huge mansion for a holiday home.

Got it wrong. God my Icelandic is slipping.

Should be:

Aga gera gera, ýta ananas hrista tré.

Surely they all have holes in them.  Where would your legs go?

Those holes are fine. The unwanted holes tend to appear in the ball sack to arse crack region. Not sure why the get extra wear there but it is a common denominator.

 
 
I think the technical term is the 'barse'.

Aldrei séð að leita eins og elskuleg eins og þú gerðir í kvöld. Aldrei séð þig skína svo björt. Þú varst alveg magnað. Og ég hef aldrei séð að kjóll sem þú ert þreytandi, og hápunktur í hárið sem grípa augun. Ég hef verið blindur. Konan í rauðu, að dansa við mig. Kinn við kinn.

Galted do with dogs. He does not even take the first drink ..???????????

takk, Tino, íslenskir ​​orð geta verið mjög særandi líka

The literal translation is just as funny.

I don't think I've ever had as much fun in my life.

And you accuse me of being an IT geek.

You're way more geeky than me.

The most fun you've had is on a forum, The most fun I've had is rubbing my tummy sausage against the wall while I watch the neighbour tending her herb garden.  I don't think so.

I wondered what Icelandic for LOL was.
