Re: Sense of humour differences

Well I'll be honest, I'm still very dry with my humour and wit, and very snarky in my humour too. Some got it right away - other's have learned the style of humour and understand it coming from me....

Re: Catherdral City Substitution

No problem! I'm forever ordering the 'proper' stuff online instead of 'making do' with 'close enough' imitations. I do it for bacon, sausage, and cheese especially

Re: Catherdral City Substitution

Us dang kids, huh? ;) But I have seen plain ones on rare occasions, though they're usually 'inclusion' style. What about ordering it online? https://igourmet.com/products/wensleydale-cheese

Re: Catherdral City Substitution

Get yourself down to Trader Joes and Aldi - often I find British imported cheese (Red Leicester, Cheddar, etc, etc). Trader Joe's best British import cheese is called 'Coastal Cheddar' or something...

Re: Credit Cards for International Car Rentals

Thanks guys!

Re: Price of gas update...

Don't let them fool us guys, while gas is dropping it's still expensive compared to the 1.90 I was paying in the midwest before rises. Still more than 2x expensive that what was being paid before...

Re: Apple iPod 2001-2022

That too! I feel the technology moved pretty fast through them. Like when I was a kid and my parents talked about vinyls, even though they're super old I knew what they were... But I feel now when I...

Re: Going back to the UK

I feel the answers being provided are not the answers they want to hear, hence the defensive nature of the OP. I have to also say, having gone through the whole process myself and about to naturalize...

Re: Apple iPod 2001-2022

Re: N400 or renew green card, which would be best?

Yeah, like mine... Weird to read all of these 'interrogation' style interviews when every single one of mine have been super relaxed, except for the serious question parts of course.

Re: N400 or renew green card, which would be best?

Good luck with the N400 interview! I recently had mine and honestly, it was a walk in the park compared to the other interviews I've had. Study the 100 questions, most you should hopefully already...

Re: N400 sent off!

I get that - but the online portal also saves the completed forms to your profile so you actually do have a copy of what is submitted. I'm glad the address was fast and simple though, much easier!
