don't wish to be overly rude, but if you're 'Mick in England' why do you use American language patterns and slang, have an exhustive knowledge US senators voting patterns and an American serviceman in your avitar?


Well I live 50 yards from the famous Mayflower steps (below) from where the Pilgrim Fathers set sail for America 400 years ago, so maybe the steps are a kind of stargate pouring out American vibes and its affected me?
Incidentally, within a year of landing, half the colonists were dead of starvation and disease but the rest stuck it out, otherwise the Yanks would now be speaking a mix of Spanish, French and Comanche, and living in wigwams..
As the history books say - The Spanish went to look for gold, the French went to set up trading outposts, but the English went to stay..
PS - Yes my avatar was a bit dull so I've replaced it with a new guy..

That's a nice pic, Mick. Is your boat in there somewhere?

Looks like you had a barbeque on top of that gate!

Nah mate that's a scorch mark from a phaser blast when aliens tried to get through the gate. We toasted a few of 'em and told the rest "now **** off back to France"..
As for boats, I ain't got one meself, the only ones I'm interested in are the big cruise liners that dock here so I can stalk the rich old American widow tourists that disembark: then hopefully I can shack up with one and go back with her to help manage her ranch in Texas, a Barbara Stanwyck type would suit me fine,she can rope,throw and brand me anytime she likes...
I fell in love with Babs when I was a teen and saw her in the Big Valley and I've had an unhealthy obsession with older women ever since, I regularly surf the "filthy grannies" websites for new pics and vids to add to my collection..
