Internet Email Scam Website

If you get an email about Lottery winnings or from the family of deposed African/Middle Eastern Dictators or from a corrupt bank official who has discovered an unclaimed amount of money that they want to share with you, then I suggest you check it out first using the Scamdex Search here.

Well, it's difficult to argue much with that. The country is cool and damp so grass grows with no apparent problems. That means hay is plentiful and grass for fodder, making cows, sheep and other pasture animals a common sight in the countryside. Hunting is mostly frowned apon.

The people are mostly friendly but wary of getting into embarassing situations so may appear standoffish at first - The best advice is to get yourself to a pub as soon as possible, and stay there for several hours each night. 3-4 pints of genuine bitter will do much towards loosening the social fabric, especially if you offer to buy a round.

It is important to ask for crisps to go with your drinks. Asking for 'chips' will just confuse the life out of the locals or make you wish you'd stayed at home. Oh, yes, at least once, have a curry.

Plan on spending a month at least in England. Visit London at the beginnning and end of your stay (you will be shocked at how naive you were at the start of your visit). Get out and see the sights. Hire a car, go to Bath, the Cotswolds, York, Windsor, Stratford on Avon (half a day only here please!), Manchester and if you can manage it, nip up to Scotland to Edinburgh (pronounced 'Eddin-Bruhh', please!). Have some real chips (and a white pudding and a black pudding and a haggis) at any local chip shop.

Enjoy, have lots of beer, dont complain about the food - it's a lot better than you've been told. ignore the teeth of the people you meet (it's not that important, really) and relax. England is hectic and annoying (That's why I now live in California), but lovely to visit. and did I mention that there's beer?

If you have time (allow lots for travel), visit ireland/eire. i can't tell you much about this place, having only been to the north, but it seemed friendly. people go on and on about the 'craic' so there nust be something in it. ..... i lost a girlfriend there ... she came back from a field trip with someone else so maybe i'm still bitter....
