I didn't realize how incredibly US-centric this site was. The last forum I frequented was Aussie-centric.

I am from Maynard, Massachusetts, USA. It's an urban milltown located in Central Mass, about 40 West of Boston.

I'm totally geeking out about our different geographic locations.

ManchesterMorgue and Phalanx - I miss Australia. Spent a week in Sydney, thought it was gorgeous (though I'm partial to Brisbane because my long lost love lives there... *sigh* Have you guys traveled Australia a lot? Where in Sydney do you live?

EC - I've never been to New Zealand - What's your little neck of the woods like?

Disease - How long you been in Scotland? And how did you wind up there?

roshiq - I know seriously NOTHING about Bangledesh. Do you live in urban areas or rural areas?

No - Generally when I ask you personal questions, you ignore them. I only JUST found out what you do for a job. :p

Why from Australia to England to Scotland?

Garage being the key word here. And since the photo seems to be taken from the high ground, I'd say a 2 or 3 story house(or mansion).

You might want to examine the words directly above the photo in the OPs post.


And, you may not be aware of this, but some people use their garage for storage and park outside. Other's actually have more than one car(I have several friends with six or seven, AND boats and cycles). And others just don't like the inconvenience of going in and out of their garage during the day.

I don't live in your screwy country, so i guess i have to take your word for it.


Where I live it's normal to have just 1 car, use the garage for its purpose, and last but not least, have your house next to the garage and not on the other side of the lawn. That looks just plain weird to me.

Festered 09-20-2008 09:44 AM

Well, here in "screwy" Florida, we have a lot of deed-restricted neighborhoods(you know, to keep the riff-raff out - code for racist). And a lot of them won't let you park a boat in your yard(afraid their prop values will plummet). So they keep them in the garage. And there aren't too many folks who are going to chuck a $75-100 thousand speed boat to keep the neighbors happy.

Oh, I thought Angra was joking and I went along with it. Yeah - That's the garage.

I live on the third floor of a three-story apartment. The garage has space for three cars and the neighbors on the first floor have two, so one of them if forced to park next to the garage.

It is a little weird - I think that the garage was a quick solution to a landlord's parking issues which predates my stay here - It was obviously built separately, quickly, and long after the apartment was originally erected. Not complaining though - keeps snow off of my car in the winter and gives us and a little extra storage space.

I'm a 20 minutes walk from the beach. So i take the bike. And by bike i mean bicycle.


And no, there's just me, myself and I running around. And most of the time we're just sitting right here. On the couch.

Yup. Living the dream, baby. ;) :rolleyes:

Beach front is prime real estate here. Kind of laughable when you consider South Florida is called Hurricane Alley. Technically speaking, the first 150 feet of shoreline on all US property belongs to the Department of Wildlife and Forest. Which, in a lot of states, is still wild. But in prime destination states like California, Florida, New York, etc. that law gets chucked out the window. Some of the keys(islands) here, you can't even go on without going thru all sorts of security clearances, and you have to have a written, verifiable invite.

But one beach got thru with a state park designation, Haulover Beach. A nude beach right in between all that expensive real estate. This might sound like some kind of perk for rich old pervs. Until you go there .......and see some of the scariest nude bodies on earth. :D

Well, thanks to our dependence on foreign oil, OPEC now has us working 18 hour days, 7 days a week, to keep our tanks filled, pay our mortgages and bills and buy our $25 a pound hamburger.


"There must be another public beach somewhere in Florida..."

They're all public beaches, but the resorts and condos try to make outsiders think they aren't.
