  2. Watch Michael Moore's 'Sicko', you'll feel a tiny bit happier living in a socialist country.

    As to the Daily Fail, at least you can tell if someone's a complete coont when they say they read it :p

  3. I am an American. I drive a Toyota.
    I would like 3 things, please.
    A good night's uninterrupted sleep.
    A really good cup of coffee when I awake.
    Not sure about the 3rd.
    Are these available in GB?

    "coont"? You Brits need to translate so that we Yanks get your humor...

  5. The thing I found funniest about my visit their last summer, for a week, was that the reader boards on the tube were projecting wrong info all the time! :p Even the locals couldn't make sense of it. I almost missed my flight at Heathrow due to it.

    Other than that a nice, albeit expensive, place to visit. Ppl are more proper than in the US, kind of funny and nice the same.

  8. It's friendly slang for an American

    At least that's what I was told when I was there:eek:

  9. It would just be a long vacation, for a year or so. Wife and I would just get an apartment around London and then travel 2 weeks each month to different cities around Europe.

    I'm hoping that it's not a bunch of hoops to jump through for an American to get an apartment in England?

    Dang! Doesn't sound like that COULD be "friendly". They need to let go from that Revolutionary war thingy. :D
