And yet you insinuate that I think NZ is a "hick country"? no, I don't see the joke really The insinuation is that here in NZ, we are some kind of backward hick country not able to come up to "American standards" or something Is there some way I can help you with your problem? |

(not hard to divide by 3 is it?) and btw - a meter is only 3 inches more than a yard Actually a metre is 3 and 3/8 inches longer than a yard |

The World Series!!! Not sure what the play in the WS but I am sure we can beat them at it if we could only get a chance to play. I occasionally have a go at some of the Americanisms that we look at and wonder and have pulled his leg (figuratively Joe) about them. As I did in this thread about metrics. But it is, as always, in good fun. Ken :) Joe, we drive on the right side of the road darn it. Let's not get confused about right and wrong and right and left. :) |

| 1419270 | 2016-04-24 03:20:00 | My first thought was that horror movie I saw with James Brolin ....The Amityville horror house (goo.gl) (Google Images)... Well at least it has character then, lol! It's only been on the market a short time and already they've had a couple of inquiries. I just wish them all the best of luck in selling it soon, it's a real drag on their finances having to service two mortgages. Their new place in NC is completely different, being a ranch style and a lot smaller. Sort of like our open plan homes with attached garage, and a slightly bigger section. LL |
