Cool Love that area of the US - NH is full of amazing scenery. How far north in Cape Cod are you going, smith? Went all the way up to Prvincetown with the missus a few years ago which was a real culture shock. Cool place though.

We didn't really stop much in Vermont cos we had a lot of driving to do and I found the drive through the north of NH more scenic to be honest. Valleys, mountains, rocks, rivers and shit everywhere. We are in south Yarmouth on the beach now. Going upto Provincetown later and check out the national park. If I could live anywhere in the states it would deffo be NH. Place is just nature and jaw-drop scenic.

So true - drove all around the north of NH and it's amazing. Stayed up near Mt. Washington which was superb. Kankamagus (sp?) Highway road is worth driving if you're ever back up that way. Enjoy it Cool

Yeah, I think Martha's Vineyard which is just off Cape Cod was used for filming the Amity Island scenes.

Worst: Went to Chester on a night out for one of the boys getting out the army. First time since I was 17, it's still as fucking shit with utter weapons everywhere.

Worster: 15 dwindled to 4 by 2:30, then lost them with no money, phone or bank card. Walked 6 mile home leathered, got in at 5ish Laughing out loud

PS: Common Projects are not good for walking long distances

Best: Just been given a free season ticket for Fulham for the work I'm gonna be doing there for the next few weeks.

Worst: I'll be able to use it about twice a season and I don't like going that much more anyway. Given it to my brother who's over the moon. Wish I'd asked for the cash equivalent. Laughing out loud

It's all relative - but I'm sure anyone would be pretty pissed off with a substantial pay cut.

No love lost in your version of 'affectionate' Eye-wink

It's funny how people automatically think living and working in a different country, or has a job where you travel a lot makes your lifestyle immediately better - like it's some kind of extended holiday or something. I'm not saying my current (soon to be defunct) job doesn't have it's perks, but how many of you would be willing to only see friends and family once a year to move ahead career wise? I'm sure most would say they would, but in practice would never do it.

Anyway - enough of my Topper problems. Sad
