Well I'm ashamed to say they have it in NH also, but it bores the crap out of me.

Sultanas are known as Golden Raisins here. I have a handful with my cardboard cereal every morning

I can't stand Nascar myself. My old boss and I used to argue about what constituted a sport. He claimed Nascar was a sport, and synchronized swimming was not. (Said that to get a rise out of me because I used to be a synchronized swimmer.)

I maintain that Nascar is NOT a sport!

it's really pretty elementary, i don't know what all the fuss is about.... if someone doesn't like to read a particular post, thread or whatever then don't.

just as with the tv, if i don't want to watch something i switch off or switch over, doesn't take much of an effort.

What's this all about then?

Re: Homesickness "grass is greener" syndrome

WTF is the story with my name being invoked his thread? By the title I judged it to be about a homesick Brit wishing to get back home so I respectfully kept my nose out of things... as I do not know what that feels like and have no reason to impose my views on the OP.

Can somebody please explain to me what exactly my crime is?
