Ok expanding on the previous question
Dec. 13th, 2004 10:12 pmRick is from San Francisco. His parents are from Texas. He currently resides in NYC and has done for a couple of years. Beyond the fact that he will attempt to hibernate every winter, what biggies should I know which this English writer doesn't?
On the same thread, Darren is English (or British if you prefer, since many Americans don't seem to differentiate - though I did have great fun watching an American call a Scotsman 'English' once) and is noticeably so (he has a very strong, very educated, British accent and make no attempts to hide it. This is of the good, despite being a capable linguist he is just BAD at speaking his mother tongue in a different accent) in NYC and has been for a year - anything I should know?
Thankfully, all my other muses are firmly at home in the British Isles. Or not on this planet at all.
