:raises hand: soooo jealousy.

I'm trying to work an employment opp over in the UK currently. Probably be a 1-2 year stay... if I get it, I'll be spending a lot of time in Scotland and Ireland... time to catch the TT races!

That's cool, riverock! I lived in Glasgow for 8 months, went to school in Rutherglen, took my A levels...


It's funny when it hits over 15 celsius! The paley's think it's HOT! LOL


If you get a chance, check out this place. It's Culzean Castle. Think its round about the Ayrshire area. It's INCREDIBLE!
