Dave - I like your humor. I have visited your country London, Dunstable and Leighton Buzzard. Thoroughly enjoyed everything but "kippers". Visited Sir Neville Bowman Shaw's company - Lancer Boss. He wasn't knighted at that time. I recall my first 2 days in London walking around and continually reminding my self to look for traffic coming from my right side when I crossed a road. I did that effectively until I reached the middle of the road adn immediately revert to my USA habits. My you have a lot of horn blowers in a short period of time - especially those on a "lorrie". After the first day that I took a cab.

You know I'm in Georgia, USA many of the locals here have roots going back to the days of King George (don't recall what Number) when he sent them here for a good reason I'm told. But when thay have too many pints of bitters (which I prefer) or ale they will drive on the LH side of the road for sure.

Cherrio!

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
