hi monkey.. I live in the french speaking part of Switzerland ( geneva ) and I've just googled your name and I could find very few monkey's here.
( I did find "cheese eating surrender monkey" but they had a proper french residence ) and hiya Dana .... just to add to the confusion here...I am actually a Yank transplanted over here... however mrs. G is Brit.. from near London originally but lived in Huddersfield for awhile... donkey's years ago. |

The regulars savage the newbies on general principles around here. We're a much more mature forum. Oldest on the internet, actually. We're quite welcoming, just so long as you kids stay offa my lawn. So what you're saying is that it's kind of a microcosm of the world at large.

*grins* no, I am not a Canuck. That was just a play on the way my name sounds.
I'm a Lancashire lass, transplanted across the Pennines to Yorkshire. About a 20 minute drive from Huddersfield as it goes.

Where did you grow up in the states? What are you doing for a living in Swissland?
If and when you do piss someone off here, I will probably burst out into song. It's practically required.
