Thanks for The Memories Accyweb!

LancYorkYankee · 31-05-2007, 17:17

Just wanted to take this time to "discuss" my good feelings over my trip. It was so very nice to meet many of you. I so enjoyed my time spent at Ianto's home (and later early day pub experience), Rindy's home, Willow's neighbor's home

, and especially the time spent with mez and Susan and all the folks who stopped by for a visit

.

The food (meat and potato pies, fish and chips, eccles cakes, etc) was absolutely spot on as was my culture lessons. Got to see real live chavs/hooligans and the many "Asians" that have been discussed on Accyweb.

It was ashame that I didn't get to see those who have "drifted" off Accyweb. Would have so enjoyed to meet you guys.

Thanks to all who allowed me to share a bit of my Faith with them. I trust I was able to show you a different view of what "religion" or better, of my simple beliefs. Please feel free to ask me any questions. For those who accepted the little booklet and/or CDs of a couple of our services, I hope you share those with others who showed an interest.

I look forward to my return. This trip allowed me to feel much closer to many of you guys. Please feel free to have a go at a visit to the US. I'll be glad to show you around.

Oh yeah, I feel the need to clarify something. For all you guys who hate the "have a nice day" American expression. I find it is meant by us exactly how your "Cheers." Why does it bother some of you so?

Take Care

Remember to wear protective gear though if Spuggie is around

Think the reason we don't like the expression 'Have a nice day' is the fact that at school, the word 'nice' is only inserted if we cannot think of a better adjective .. would get minus points for using this in our English Literature pieces ... so prefer to say 'lovely, pleasant, etc.' 'Nice' sounds a little common/banal to us ..

You a 'nice' guy though Brian, come back soon. x

Glad you enjoyed your trip, as much as we enjoyed meeting you.

The long and rambling chat we had was a treat. We touched on many things, and all of it was interesting, and it made me see some issues differently. Thanks Bro.

We accept your apology, just don't do it again! You members of the Colony come over here showing us your strange ways and expect us to fit in with you?

Just you remember we let you win, it was fiscal policy, let these upstarts have what they want we'll get the King to write it off as a tax loss.

As for "have a nice day", that's not a problem, it's when you add, "you all", to the sentence..."have a nice day, you all". WE ARE NOT "YOU ALL".

Other than that it was really GOOD, (notice, not nice, to meet you).

When the heck did I apologize my foreign hating friend? As for the colony squabble, remember, my ancestors were with you guys on that one (although Cindy's were over here with the stinkin rebels!)

)

I don't believe I ever say you all or worse yet y'all. That's these southern rebels who do that. You Less are quite the character. I still waiting for you to finish "the book" so I can pick it up on E-bay!

Now what were me strange ways . . . the baccy, the accent, the refusal to drink that glowing goon juice, oh maybe it was the harmonica playing. Heck, I didn't wear me baseball cap and I kept my shirt tucked in!

Gotta run. BEA

You'll do for me then!

I shoot baseball cap wearers on sight (unless they are under 10 years old - or a baseball player) and forcibly tuck in the shirts of the sartorially impoverished. Thumb-screws are reserved for those who wear trainers with a suit.
