Re: Britains biggest spenders

Re: Ignorant Yank comments on British Driving...

It isn't true, frankly.

There are crap drivers in every country in the world, and British drivers from my experience of being in other countries in Europe are far less roudy than others. People...

You mean, gone to America? Nope.

I joined here a few months ago with some far-fetched fantasy about coming over for a year to work on my year out from university in the IT industry. Soon realised...

This is bloody ridiculous. :mad:

Everyone who comes on here enquiring about coming over to the USA gets shot down and laughed off the forum. Is a disgrace.

Re: Public or Private Health Care?

Well I hope to do a stint in the States in a few years, if it happened, probably on a tight budget, I would fear slipping on a wet floor, breaking my leg and ending up completely buggered...

Public or Private Health Care?

This is a question to anyone living in America. What are your thoughts on the US's Private Health Service in comparison to the UK's Public Health Service?

What would you like to see improved with...

Re: I love LA ( Boyz N the Hood)

Re: Newbie here

The heat is pretty unreal for this country. In the north where I live you are usually lucky to get 80 degrees in summer, but it was 95 today in Bury.

Typically though, it will be raining again...

Re: I love LA ( Boyz N the Hood)

I think you have got your UK's and US's mixed up. "I don't buy into the US is more dangerous than the UK thing" doesn't match with everything else you say.

Re: Has America become better or worse since you came?

Cops in the UK always seem more interested in standing at the side of the road clocking people for doing 32mph. They are increasing the number of cops on the street in the worse areas due to heavy...

Re: Fancy Experiencing US

But, I don't want to go to Australia. No point paying good money to go abroad just for the hell of it.
