I caught my neighbors dog dropping a big Poo in my back garden last year as I was making a cup of tea early one morning ......and the owner standing next to him watching letting him go for it although he was waiting with a bag to whip it away
But we still had "words"

Claymore mines work well. Did you go out in your fuzzy bunny slippers and hot water bottle tied around the dressing gown?

No not really I'm classless
I think it's the area that people go to avoid the Yankees
Okay that's what the locals say...i am by no means biased in any direction all are welcome. The neighborhood is where the land was dirt cheap (no pun intended)
I'm a PT Cruiser gal no SUV's for me but i do like a frozen coffee drink now and again

I love it here.... and truly dont understand all the people that complain constantly and dont like it, well then why dont you just move back and stop complaining. The US is a great place to live..... I love everything about it.... I dont cry and whine about living here in the US as its a choice, .... and if I truly thought Id have a better lifestyle in the UK then Id be living there....... The Brits are always known worldwide as moaners, and you know its a bit annoying after awhile, I cannot stand all the downers about the USA...... I wouldnt live anywhere else, even though Im proud to have my English heritage, I would not live there again 100% of the year if someone paid me. And if you hate it and are married to an American, well then you should of thought about that earlier, and convinced them to go there instead of you being here. JMO

I thought the streets were paved with gold here, I was very naive and had a huge culture shock. I've learned such a lot though, I would do it again.
