12 Years and Counting Great work Matt.
Some similarities and differences; California and Macedonia:
- Smoking: still virtually mandatory here;
- Earthquakes; dozens each year, with one pants wetter per annum. Earthquakes must be the only potential natural disaster that nobody can accurately predict, and they scare the poop out of me.
- Loud people; competition for California from Macedonia and based on the old saying about laughter, 'He who shouts loudest, shouts last'. Perhaps a competition could be arranged between the two areas, down a deep, disused mineshaft on Tierre del Fuego. Or just simple deportation of the contestants.
-'Thankyou' - rarely heard. Response when not received, 'Your welcome, ***hole'.
- 'Sorry' - same response as above.
- 'Excuse me' - same as above
Keep up the good work, I love it, Dave
I came across your blog when I googled Florianopolis a few days ago. My daughter is visiting that lovely spot and I wanted to get an idea of what it looked like. I bookmarked your blog and read it from time to time. So this is to let you know that I like the way your write and think your photos are great. Thank you ...

I'm glad you liked The Wrestler and that I was the one who loaned it to you....AND, by the way, because of the positive results the first time, Phil is now using 'shut up' to solve everything, Olivia's graduation, two gals were gassing behind us for all of ten seconds, yes, you guessed it. they got a SHUDDUUP! from Baz
Great job! Matt.... Happy Birthday, you Taurian! Thanks for attending the party and reporting with such description in your blog. You are the man..... you flid! LOL!
I take it Jamie wasn't walking around California with his phone pressed to his ear pretending he was still at work? "Erm, I'm sorry I've just popped out of the office for a second...."
Burnley Legend Who the fuck are you calling Ralph Coates,you long peice of piss.How are you anyway.I hope everything is fine and you are doing well.Drop me a line if you get time in your busy schedule. Regards Maurice.
you'll never get the nickname lucky! ......or maybe you will. Just caught up with your blog, the mexican thing must have been a tadge worrying. If you get a chance rent a film called borderland, based on true events in a mehicano bordertown, this will ensure you will never return! Glad Everything is going well, I'll see pip soon and let him know of your latest adventures.

Now preparing to start again in Long Beach, Ca with a new job in May '08. Read all about it here and don't forget, leave a message. ... full info
