I went to Dallas and that was shite. They're both in Texas, so I assume they're both shite.

The whole state of Texas is shite. It's a good thing they have a governor doing something about removing that piece of shite from the rest of the Union.

Houston doesn't have a twin town. But it does have a suicide pact with Grimsby.

Bloody Hell I moved from one shit hole to another without even realising it. I guess I'll just work my way through the list - hubby is bound to have offices in each one. I wonder what the weather is like in Baku this time of year......

When we lived in the Dallas area we would take I-45 on the way to visit Galveston and the Bolivar Peninsula and we would go right through Houston without stopping.
Galveston was nice but the journey to the beach was about 325 miles for us.

From what I've seen of Houston, I can take it or leave it. I don't much like cities anyway. I prefer bum**** nowhere in the countryside.
