Same argument can be said of Saddam (sorry, couldn't resist). The logic is the same: "track record," "proven intentions, " etc... Oh, but wait, you don't live in Iraq, so that means it's different. It only matters if it directly affects the Europeans. In other words, if the Europeans have a "problem," we are obligated to help (pretty much our own fault with NATO and all), but if it's somewhere else in the world where the people aren't as "sophisticated," then they will become easily beguiled by the "imperialist" Americans and their "cowboy" policies. All right, like I said, couldn't resist - I sometimes feel a need to respond when people attempt to turn a thread into a "bash America" forum. I will move back on topic.
Has anyone noticed Wagon Wheels have got smaller, and Rolos, they're tiny now Sorry to be flippant, so what were we talking about, war, death, destruction?
Anything like the "13* oz. POUND" of coffee? Or the "1.75 or 1.65 qt. HALF GALLON" of ice cream? Or the "5 oz package of Corn Nuts which is now 4 oz", but the price stayed the same? These are subltle forms of price increases and inflation. Most consumers don't even notice. (And isn't that the BEST kind of price increase?) * has since become 12 oz.
You lot dont know how lucky you are to still have any oz. gallons etc. Brussels has put us onto metric. Rainfall was 10 millilitres or something last night. Fortunately I was asleep aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
About time, damn it! Now, you guys only need to change your driving habits, and you can join the rest of the civilized world like us...(j/k)
Hey man,looks like you're right,as of December 2005 visa waiver is 6 months,pretty handy,I know it's just 3 months for Brits visiting the US as I heard one of them whining about it the other day. Still if you declare that you're visiting for the full 6 months they'll want to know where you're staying,why you're there and how you're going to pay for it as you can't say you'll be working because then you'll definitely require a working visa.I'm sure there are ways round it but it's better to know before you get your hopes up.
haha,true - they've put a lot of people off,the only ones that still come here are the greedy bastards trying to buy a load of cheap shit at virtually half-price,I mean,it's all from China anyway,is it really worth it? British immigration people are also a bit questionable,last time I was there the woman in front was extensively 'frisked' by some four-eyed,spiky-haired lesbian.
I guess since my wife and I want to go for a year, it might make sense to stay in England for say, 5 months and 3 weeks, and then in 2 other countries for 3 months each. That way, we can get away with not having a visa.
It would be easier to list the safe areas London, probably like other capitals around the globe has ghettos, sometimes adjacent to respectable and safe neighbourhoods. For example Dulwich Village is very select but less than a mile down the road is Brixton which is roughly the equivalent of your 'projects'. Your best bet might be to find a cheapish very short-term let (one month, no lease or references required) in somewhere like Bayeswater and explore from there. Not knowing what you're looking for it's hard to suggest areas.
