    Dunedin, NZ -> Nadi, Fiji -> Suva, Fiji -> Auckland, NZ -> London, UK -> Auckland, NZ

    with a fair whack of travelling in between.

    Why is that countries are known for their beautiful women, and never their men?

    Being one (a man that is) my guess is that there simply are more beautiful women than men, and not some boring explanation about men being predominant in positions where such sayings are made.

    I think because it's way more noticable. Women are also more likely to comment on other women whereas guys just don't say "hey, I was in Australia recently and those guys out there were hot!"

    Of the places I've lived, Huntington and Newport Beach have the best looking women in the highest quantities by far. As for men... I've never noticed. LOL.

    Is London Bridge actually a town? Or are you living underneath it until that adsense check clears? (I'm sooo avoiding work right now)

    Hehe - London Bridge, (Although also a bridge) is an area in the district of Southwalk, London.

    I live there, not in the bridge ;)

    Hi,

    In the UK (grew up in Romney Marsh (*makes sheep noise*))
    Then Hatfield for Uni
    Then North Finchley (London) for work
    Two days in Belfast for Nortel.
    In New York City (working midtown Manhatten)
    Couple of weeks in Amsterdam working
    Now settled back in the UK (lived in Winchester, Southampton and now Salisbury
    ...working in...

    Farnborough! :)

    I've worked for a couple of companies in this area (Nokia and Sun Microsystems). I've not experienced the full dullness of the towns because the tech companies prefer to mow down swathes of forrest area to build their shiney glass towers in).

    Cheers

    Chris

    I'm jealous of all the travelers...not enough $ to go to Europe and beyond yet...

    I'm from Miami and I've lived in Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs (a suburb-city), and Tallahassee.

    Everyone's always surprised I was born and raised here.:)

    I have just moved around Scotland West > East
    Weather still hot/cold/snow/sleet/sunny/rainy all in one day
    People in the N.East of Scotland have sharper tongues!

    I used to live on the Isle of Arran, when I was 4 me and my brother(6) went out for a day walking up a hill, out for around 12 hours, on our way back we went into a youth club and made puppets out of cereal boxes and then headed home to our house which was unlocked and no one home. Thats a place you could leave your doors unlocked!

    Probably full of drugs/ASBO's now though.
