Nah, can't stand Russian women, beautiful and all but too shrill, and I always mistrust women who can out-drink me :lol:

I'm currently seeing a New Yorker - who is beautiful, shrill, and can totally out-drink me, even without trying :beat

Be warned, I've heard the place is full of Americans....

See, now that right there is funny. Especially if one considers "Americans" as white Anglo Saxons. :lol:
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Plans are afoot, but far from maturity - like Welsh cheese ;)

As an Iberian-gened Celt myself, I could care less about the people of Manhattan, i'd never want/be able to afford to live there anyway. We're more inclined towards upstate NY...

Wow. Amazing, Jay Tea.

Did you meet on-line on in real life?

Do you have a forum where you both hang out?

Or don't you need to use anywhere to kick the tin about, like Gob and I did*?


* And still do.
Bah!

Indeed, which is a wee bit unlike me it has to be said. Getting over won't be a problem, i've got family over there and am an educated professional, it's just the small matter of gripping the nostrils and taking the plunge...

We met online, and hooked up in late 2006, casual like, and over the course of a couple of years realised that we wanted each other permanently. When her divorce comes through i'm in :lol:

S'ok, at this one school I went to there were so many kids with my surname we all had nicknames (because for some reason our given forenames weren't sufficient!). Mine was 'Tayter' :D
