I was quite alarmed at how the American police broke up a demonstration last week. They were quite violent, and even being in Belfast at the height of the troubles was never like that.

America, land of the free?? NO WAY.

Can't wait to get back to Blighty and FREEDOM. 6 weeks vacation, time off at Christmas, New Year and Easter, and all Bank Holidays

I have lived 3 years in America, and I cannot wait till July when I can finally get out of this jingoistic, expensive, banana republic of the USA

Do you ever stop whining about the US? I think members get the message. Please change the record (or should it be MP3?)...

TruBrit

seems you don't have to wait until july......hope all goes well tomorrow.

Best not mention that it's absolutely pissin it down here today...worst weather since we got back.

southern comfort

Thought you were leaving TOMORROW...PLEASE go

TruBrit

sounds nice, seriously

i know the south of england needs the rain or it'll be hose pipe bans again if not already in force......

britvic

It's a must or the place would not be so green

Old William

Yea we need the rain...some parts of the UK had 0 (yup thats zero, nil, nada) rain for the whole of April!

However I just drove Chester to Hull this afternoon and it was torrential downpours all the way along the entire length of the M62 which kind of sucked.

I've been in Herefordshire all this weekend - it's been pussies and bowwows all day today but total rainfall for the whole of April here was just 1.3mm - apparently it all fell during tea break.

The problem with that kind of rain, though, is that is causes flooding as it can't sink in to the ground quickly enough, because the ground's too hard. No fun!

Promise you'll stay away? I mean, from this forum as well. Just don't let the door hit your arse on the way out, m'kay? (and good luck back in England)

.... Leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again.... at least you've managed to find something in common before you go - it seems neither you nor a few here can wait for July.

NC Penguin

Elsewhere on BE he said he's leaving tomorrow. I hope it's true.

Tracym

Where did he say that?

And sorry, I've tried to be tolerant... but have to join you in that wish.

Tbag

Bloody hell do you have some sort of memory disorder?
You continue to open threads with your whinge of the day...... shite we have all heard before of have experienced!!!! tell us a new one at least if your going to bother!!!!
If we all opened a bloody thread every time we had a shitty day then we would probably all need our own freaking personal BE!!!!!!!!

Please get an original thought!!!!

TruBrit

you're right there, we have flash flooding all the time here...serious probs esp with the cars on the roads, no grip with the road surface being as it is and the retread tyres don't help matters in any weather
