Re: Houston meet up - May

Re: Which tyres?
I would go with a medium price point tire on that case Geoff. I don't know what you have up there. I go to Discount Tyre here in Houston but don't know if they're a national chain.

Re: Quote for a twenty footer?
This is what I understood too, I wasn't allowed to pack my own items due to the insurance. In reality I had packed all the boxes myself, then unpacked them but left them in neat box sized piles!

Re: Coffee and coffee machines
Yes, this is where I'm at with the Keurig's as well. It actually gets very expensive very quickly and is a bit of a pain to use the device (whatever it's called) where you can put your own grounds...

Thanks! :thumbsup: It's alright though, I'm quite used to being ignored.

Re: Coffee and coffee machines
Oh, and I love the fact that at my local HEB they have a ton of different beans available and grinding machines so you can buy the beans you want and grind them how you want.

Right! WTF is with that?! It's just an insult to remind us that we're only halfway through the week.
Happy Friday or TGIF posts are particularly bothersome to me at the moment as no day is off...

Re: will USA salary support me and my wife?
I'm slightly confused (doesn't take much!)...
Is this a contract position? Why are we talking in salary/hr?

Re: US based, CGT on sale of UK property
Though when it's reported on your tax return they only ask for price paid in USD and price sold in USD which opens you up to xrate fluctuations.

The wife sometimes uses two pillows but normally just one, I may use one if I feel so inclined (often I end up not using one at all).

Re: Hotels in NY/LA/SF
I'm a fan of a hotel called Morgans in NYC (it's Madison and 37th). It's a boutique hotel (no signs outside to advertise it's there).
