Fine except Paris was cold and wet. Should have gone to Hawaii.

Far too expensive even without the unfavorable exchange rate. That's enough culture stuff to last a life time. Mexico and Hawaii from now on.

Re: What are the British Like

I can tell you what "we* are like.... We can take as good as we give...

Sh/t I am in a minority UK group in my office surrounded by Mericans (I am a M'erican - but that's no fun).

I take the p/ss and they take a bigger p/ss... ALL great fun...

When I went to Hawaii I thought I was in Japan!! Actually though, the same could be said for Stratford-On-Avon.

Keep clicking through the related videos and you can listen to the two versions of Madonna. With a US accent on Letterman and a fake UK accent on Parky! Her UK accent sounds like she's traveled around England and learned a word a day in every region. Stoopid mare!
