United States VS United Kingdom

[!!! Beowulf !!!]

I live in Winchester, Bournemouth is a lovely little place.
Never been to Chile, sounds a bit to exotic for us british shire dwellers.

Winchester isn't a bad place itself. Got a great old English feel to it with medieval architecture and good pubs and restaurants.

Yeah it's nice, ****ing expensive to live hear though, i got a small 2 bed apartment and it's 235k.
Nice location though, I love the fact that it's a city, in amongst a largely rural area.

Yeah, nice countryside nearby. River Itchen, South Downs. New Forest isn't too far either. Definately a decent area to live in.

£235k for a 2 bedroom flat is a bit steep though.



One way system is rather annoying though.

it is commonsense u clown

i take it u have never clapped eyes on a map LMAO

Look at the size difference between the 2 countries dip**** and ask yourself would that little coutry house more people than we have in this country there is your answer

did u do geography at your school or where u in the corner when they were teaching it to everybody

Well, India is smaller than US on the map but.........

by the way I'm not defending that guy, It should be common sense that we have a larger population than england. This is the problem with America, we have no idea what is going on around us. We just like to close our eyes to the rest of the world and proclaims we are the best. Probably <10% of the Americans can tell you who the president is of Mexico or Canada (our neighboring countries). Most can't even point out Iraq on the map, but get very patriotic when it comes to discussions about the war and are convinced that everything we are doing over there is the right thing to do.

As you can see from my vote, I am not planning to leave america anytime soon. I love america, (in the words of Bill Maher) I'm just embarrased by some of the idiots that reside here who we are obligated to call Americans.

Oh mate the one way is a ****in nightmare, it can take me over an hour to get from my house to tesco, which is about 2 miles away through town.
Lucky I live 30 seconds from the motorway. I'm also right on the river so i get beautiful walks along the river into town. Good schools for my kids too, i just don't know if i can afford to stay here. I only get paid 25k and my mrs doesn't work so that's all we get, plus tax credits and ****.

Ok so I was a little harsh on the UK earlier.....what I meant to say in a diplomatic way is that it appears from my knowledge of both places and the things I've heard from others who have traveled the world is that the U.S. has more variety and options of landscape, better quality (maybe not access but quality) health and dental care and more tasty( but fat filled) food varieties. I will say tho I'd take a hawt Brit chick with a nice accent over a rotten,smart ass spoiled American **** anyday.
