Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up
I'm back.
Coming into London I was very surprised how brown all the normally green fields looked, I wasn't expecting that. Although I know it was a hot summer. Coming into Manchester was much more lush and green, so I assume the south had a hotter dryer summer. Oh and Manchester you need pound coins for the trolleys in the luggage retrival, all I had was some Euros and Dollars and a credit card. So there was me, Dd (8) and three huge checked cases, two carry ons and two coats, that was a tough one. But we managed to get through the one way doors without loosing anyone or anything. One brand new case was split, and one old case was split. the only unscathed one was a samsonite I found on clearance in Marshalls. I guess you really do get what you pay for. :lol: |

Wealth you say? I no longer refer to the elected in Washington as Senators or Representatives but as the "millionaires" in Washington. |

Same thing cheers in London, all politicians here are Millionaires, but I think the filthy rich are the Peers or whatever they call them in the house of lords, theres about 600 of the useless little rich blighters getting £68,000 per year for just showing up a few days a week when they feel like it, dressed up in there red outfits and frilly shirts, they are not voted in by the public or anyone else, and they can never be voted out until they die, but government is slowly trying to change that part where sometime in the far distant future :eek: they may be successful in passing a bill that will only allow them to serve for a limited term like 8 years before they have to go to a public vote, don't think it will ever happen though, I mean its been that way for hundreds of years I think, at present when these very wealthy people die someone in there family takes over like there son or cousin, but they have to be male :eek: now whats that all about? Im afraid womans lib has not extended over to that department!!!! ------- YET!!!!

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...e-pile-up.html There was a 12 mile queue of stationary traffic, people were standing outside their cars and had clearly been there for quite some time. I imagine that many drivers missed their ferry and Eurotrain crossings to France. |

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...e-pile-up.html The Volvo, Audi looked good and also the cars on the two car carriers escaped undamaged. Fortunately no one got caught driving in their sleep ware. Thanks for the pictures. we were in that area 6 weeks ago and I commented to the family at the time that when they have accidents there in Britain they break records. I'm so glad no one was killed.
