I like UK and US culture.

That is all I need.

r O,

Not all of us share your mental issues of anti -
immigration, whoopee cushions, and anything Chinese.

Dear Chris,

Good for you.

Been to the Uk and the US recently?

Dear Saltpetre,

ttbn did cast some scurrilous and unappreciated aspersions
at me in his previous post to AC on page 15 of this
discussion. The time is irrelevant. (10.20.33 AM).
I'm used to his bites. He can't help himself. I ignore
them. He's the typical thug bogan nasty. For him that's
normal behaviour. Most of us avoid any inter-action.
Unless provoked. He's the reason God invented the
middle-finger. There's others on this forum that
also qualify for the finger. But heck - that's the norm
around here.

yes, three years ago USA. England in next few years.

Great cultures. The world would be a very boring place without them.

Don't really care about other cultures.

Chris, Which part of current UK and US?

I have been to Hawaii, New York and California.

Last visit was to NY.

The locals said I saw more of New York than they had in their life times.

Walked everywhere. 70,000 steps some days.

Rode around entire Manhattan, through the city like I was young again.

Went to all the boroughs, spoke to many locals.

I love sport, so NY and London are my more favoured places to visit.

Went to NFL, MLB and WNBA.

Planning on a month long visit to London in a few years when my daughter is old enough to take it all in.

sure, It would be a hard place to live if your were a low skilled worker, but I love the USA.

I also love NZ.

And, of course, I love Australia. I am so glad my Greek parents chose a country with a dominant Anglo-celtic culture.

Dear Chris,

So you love London and you went to all the burroughs
in New York. You do realize that both London and
New York are the most multicultural of cities?
The most cosmopolitan? Perhaps that's what you and
why you loved them both so much?

And perhaps why you love Australia today - is for
the same reasons. It's no longer the Anglo-Celtic
culture of the 1950s. Yay!

Open your eyes and take a look around you. Take off the
blinkers.

BTW: What is your real family name? That of your parents.
And what name were you baptized with?

I bet it wasn't Chris Lewis originally.
