Re: What did you do with your 220/240V electrical goods?

Re: International Driving License

Re: Experience of renewing UK passport from overseas

It was FedEx. DHL was about $46 if I booked and paid online, but I didnt have time to set up an account so I sucked down the extra expense. USPS was also about $46 but they were 3-5 days compare to...

British TV in the USA

Well at least as far as sports is concerned.

Does anyone miss getting Eurosport, Sky Sport or the new BT Sport and keeping with Euro sports that are not NFL, NBA or MLB?

If you have not already...

Re: Nation of drunks?

Absolutely and wholeheartedly agree with you there. It should be bloody newsworthy. It’s a sad indictment that this is tolerated and blown off as ‘typical’

I ride motorbikes and it scares the...

Re: Nation of drunks?

Yep, same here. There were times though in times of lesser positions of employ that it could be any day of the week. In fact there is probably a direct correlation between the distance one is to a...

Re: Experience of renewing UK passport from overseas

I’ll let you know. Spent another $60 to get my new paperwork to Durham by Wednesday. Called them yesterday and they still knew nothing. Useless turds. It may be 2015 before I can give you definitive...

Sure they do, it’s just they are mostly white so their culture looks and feels more like traditional British Church of England values. Harder to tell them apart in a bus queue. But dont tell me their...

Re: Let's talk about cars

Re: Let's talk about cars
