... [Good story snipped] The 80 miles was nothing in that part of the country. We used to drive 50 miles to Pocatello, ID with friends to have lunch together after church on Sundays. As a child I lived in Canada for a year. I remember we'd go the 90 miles to Toronto for the theatre or ballet in the evening, have dinner (at the Jade Garden) and come back, then I went to school the next day. Coming back to England, suddenly 90 miles did seem a long way again. In most of North America things don't change that much in that distance. In much of Europe, and in the UK more than anywhere, the geology is so complex that in that distance the scenery, local architecture (determined originally by the locally available building materials) and the type of agrticulture/industry are probably completely different. Also you'll have travelled through about ten small towns... Peter (who lives ten miles from anywhere.) |

Smooth, woody, just the right amout of bite. Hey! I sound like one of those snobby booze hounds! -- -- rec.photo.equipment.35mm user resource: -- http://www.aliasimages.com/rpe35mmur.htm -- e-meil: there's no such thing as a FreeLunch.-- |
