The converse is also true in some countries - ugly men. And I should know.

Because of guys like you the rest of us increase our odds.

Seriously, with your Englid=sh accent and manners you would do quite well in America as long as you dont go on about how bad you are.

I thought you meant that Antwerp was colder than Cheltenham. I just saw your neighborhood 30 minutes ago on the Travel Channel.

That is shisha. It's a pretty cool experience. Some kids brought one into the smoking room of the student center at my college. Only time I've used one without pot.

And give yourself a hangover the next day.

Me too. It really thrashed my lungs though but I had a great time. At about 3am a belly dancer started performing. Women in Habibi Cafe would go up and dance with her.

Sounds fun.

I could always do a belly dance - but it would scare everyone away.

Actually, that could be funny and people would be impressed with your balls. Think John Belushi or Chris Farley.

Is there much to do in Cheltenham, SDPM?

There's not really anything different to any other small town.

Well, would you say that it was like London?

Has to be better than Wigan.

Even though I grew up in the OC, 40 miles from Los Angeles, there is just so much more to do here in a much more concentrated area.

Boring. Ive seen your area and its amazingly beautiful. Great for hiking and quaint villages and limestone buildings. For local youth though it must be trying.

Well I couldn't think of something that wouldn't look too negative and depressing when I wrote it.
But no, it's not like London.
What do we have?

A cinema, a bowling centre, and then just the normal array of shops and restaurants. That's what we have.

And also a host of football clubs within easy driving distance.

. And Europe 3 hours away by rail.

Is it because of your condition, if I may ask? The kids here cant wait to get their permit..but it sucks to be them. It used to ne that you could get a license at 16. Now they have to wait till they are 18.

No it isn't. It is because of the way people drive around here. You have to think for yourself as well as everyone else, because a lot of people do stupid things (like cutting right in front of you). I couldn't cope with that.

The roads also looked so very narrow. It must be a bit difficult to get around though in a small town.

. I understand how upset you get. During rush hour my head wants to explode.

SDPM..do Cheltenham Town play their matches on friday nights?
