Cincinnatis not that bad.Blue Ash I know where it is,Did a tornado hit there not to long ago ?or wrong town.
We all have our differences with culture ,I spent 25 years in Germany now that was different,But I enjoyed it.We just all have to live together accept one anothers faults and enjoy life.

Why not?
I love a cuppa with milk (no sugar) but on a Texas morning it is like eating hot oatmeal: you do NOT want to warm up inside as it is already hot enough outside! I do agree that ever since "discovering" proper English hot tea, it is a real treat in the winter.

I assimilated early on and took to iced tea like a duck to water - but I did arrive here in the middle of a FL summer.
I make mine with loads of lemon in it though.

Re: Differences between UK and USA culture/living
I LOVE getting cuddles! The physical contact with people was something I really missed in England.
When I first moved there I used to try to kiss everyone, just like I would in Spain, but people were very intimidated by my keenness to kiss them and often would stand back and look at me like I was crazy
.. I stopped doing it eventually but I always found it a bit odd to be introduced to somebody and just say hello and nothing else
