I heard it was full of cows, and they use Houston as their toilet.

What's going on in Texas that makes it so popular these days? Did Florida finally fall off the map?

We actually possess an economy that is not made entirely of candy floss and bat turds.

If you stick a pair of mouse ears on a bat turd you'll be surprised how much it'll fetch.

Hi Leslie66, I agree with you, very abusive from him to start a New thread off.

Mean while a Long Horn is a larger version of a Cow, what do they do different than a cow ?

This should back you us up leslie

Cliff - don't worry. It's not abusive to start new threads at all, in fact it's quite welcome despite the chastisement you might get from certain moderators for putting it in the wrong place.

Hopefully by now you're getting into the spirit of British Expats and the friendly banter and off-kilter humour that goes on here.

Hiya Cliff

Lots of expats move from the UK to Texas. Houston seems particularly popular at the moment (except with tonrob!). Houston is a nice place. Friendly, lots to do etc. You need to be able to drive to get around. You also need to be able to put up with the heat and humidity.
Any idea where in texas you are thinking of? Then someone might be able to help you more.
