    If you could live anywhere?

    Where would you choose?

    Thinking of doing a runner from this dodgy country to an even dodgier one... Any assistance appreciated.

    I've heard of a far away place. Meerica, just south of Kanadia and north of Mehico.

    Half and half sounds good...

    Mayfair, Pnom Pen or the Trossachs?

    Are they all better than Pattaya?

    I've been searching for 'that' spot myself...

    I'm finding that every dog has different fleas...

    If I find it, I'll let you know...

    The town, which was incorporated as a municipal borough in 1874, is one of six that federated to form the county borough of Stoke-on-Trent in 1910, along with Hanley, Tunstall, Burslem, Longton and Fenton. It is the seat of the city's council, though Stoke-on-Trent's city centre is, usually regarded as being the nearby town of Hanley which, since federation, has been the most commercially important of the Six Towns.

    Stoke on Trent.
    The Trent is a river, and Stoke is a town. Suppose it could have been called Stoke under Hill, as there is a small hill nearby.

    Cuba me thinks, once Fidel kicks the bucket it should get pretty dodgy when they all start to fight for the power, and while I was waiting I would get myself some lovely smooth dark brown ...........

    ^ Just got back from 2+ weeks in the PI... I have to admit I'm considering it, but it has it's negatives also... Absolute crushing poverty, lack of education, scams abound and personal safety is not a given... You can get western products, everyone speaks at least some English and they like Merkins... Well, they like our money anyway...

    Closest thing to Patts is Angeles City, which truly is a shit hole...
