ie when I moan about missing M&S he tells me I should start my own business selling freshly prepared food.
Guess he is the optimistic one I take after my mother the more negative one
I'm really a nice person but some people seem to get a perverse pleasure in being unhappy.

I just re read the title, think we should discuss "is the grass greener in UK or USA" personally I prefer the English grass very green nice texture. Florida grass is very course, almost like Astro Turf.
