The Americans think 100 years is a long time

The British think 100 miles is a long way

Can't argue with that! My wife just left to pick up some specialty items for her class. 53 miles there + 53 miles back = 106 miles. Didn't give the mileage a second thought.

The ONLY difference between us, is geography. Same people, same culture, same problems. Minor language barrier.....well.....only if you live in essex.

The reason americans dont think anything of a hundred miles is....because we dont have all those dang ROUNDABOUTS!!!! :-5

There is much to be said, for roman roads! :yh_bigsmi
