Taking the piss...

So we're at the pub after the final World Cup match, enjoying a frosty adult beverage... and it starts. Someone asks when we're leaving, and others join in asking about our upcoming trip. A certain someone, (Paul) chimes in telling Ferny to ask us about our itinerary and then he chuckles. Now these guys have local knowledge of the places we are going to visit and are less than enthusiastic about our choices. In fact, they were questioning our sanity and reasoning as to our choices. When I explained that most of the trip was to be spent visiting friends, it made no difference. Suggestions were made as to places we could visit here in the States and save a lot of cash. Scenic places like Detroit, Trenton and Allentown among others. Funny lads they are!
Well the suggestion was made (a good one from Ferny - his first) that we should start a Blog to chronicle our journey. And so we have.
Hopefully, there are not so primitive spots along the way, and we find WIFI connections to post our experiences. We'll show them that you can go to Manchester and still have fun!
