Yeah, even more pop up on some of the tech sections. Also, a couple of American wannabes like Darth . . . :p :p :D <br /><br />Welcome Danny. Do you boat on the Channel? I've actually been to Great Yarmouth :cool: I recall a large warehouse just to my left in the picture with rescue boats? A long ramp from the warehouse/boathouse thing?<br /><br />

Re: Anyone on this forum from the UK ?

Hi Danny, Welcome to the forum :) be very wary of that noisy feline, he is bad news, ;) really bad news :D <br />Its good to have another cricket fan aboard, those darn Aussies outnumber us Brits on here, they do try to give us a tough time, but RPJS is quick on the draw and fires right back :D <br />I'm a big Arsenal FC fan, its a lot easier now to follow the games with the internet and all , but who's got the time? I can't remember the last time that i saw Norwich play. <br />Was Justin Fashanu ever their striker? <br />That how long ago it was, the old memory box plays tricks on me these days ;)

Hi Danny and welcome aboard the ship of fools :D <br /><br />I'm just glad you used the term "UK" and not engurlund :p <br /><br />Cricket??? That's just rounders for boys. Rugby is the real game :D <br /><br />Just don't ask me about fitba' cos I'm Scottish and we don't have a national team anymore :( <br /><br />Luckily Norwich is outside my beat :D

Re: Anyone on this forum from the UK ?

Rugby (Rugger as my cousins in Cornwall call it)is my game of choice too.<br />Did you see the footage on the Wellington Skipper, Umuga, belting a mate with some sheilas handbag...in a pub brawl...which sold on ebay for a rediculous amount.<br />Over here Danny, and for RPJS too, they serve the beer dead-cold and the pies hot...exactly the opposite to what I experiences in UK (actually, didn't mind cold-pork-pies).<br />I don't have any match tickets. Time is an essence around this place at the moment.<br />Should you decide to extend your trip, and come north to the sub-tropics, please let me know.<br />Loved your car picture. Probably the best of the British...would love to have one.<br />Cheers<br />Phillip
