welcome Olly, Weeder..

We seem to be collecting a few members from across the pond.. makes for many interesting debates and discussions.. not to mention learning some new vocabulary terms..

beautyful · Post by **beautyful** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 8:58 am

its interesting to get perspectives on things from both sides of the 'pond' plus its interesting to learn about life in the states and whats the big news over there.

Vesuvius · Post by **Vesuvius** » Wed Dec 08, 2004 2:37 pm

Hi Olly,

I'm from UK also, from Lincoln.

Nice to meet you all. I agree, its great to get new perspectives, but, I am very pro American as my late father was from Canada.

If that doesn't make sense, well :wah:

Hello everybody in England.. Ive been trying to get there for years.Dublin,years ago I worked in two Irish pubs in new York Monahan and Fitzgeralds and Patricks

Strange that, I was trying to get over the Pond to your country for years

I made in last year when my daughter went to work for Camp America, in California, after she finished her Degree Course, and when she finished her 2 month stint, I met her in New York.

Loved it. Every moment. Stayed around midtown, and soon got the hang of the yellow cabs. :rolleyes: Hot and sticky though in August. The Museums are to die for, and everyone was so friendly. Found some real bargains clothes wise too.

Visited Florida, Port St. Lucie, in the 70's, and next year hope to visit Arizona, a dream of mine, and stay on a ranch.

I'm sure, Olly, that it will be a pleasure to converse with you on the Forum. And I'm sure you will rise to the expectations of your teachers and handle the complusory courses well.
