    Welcome to australia, I hope you enjoy your time here

    IF you have browsed the board, you will no doubt be familiar with our sense of humour. Dont take too much offence at what anyone says to or of you.
    I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it

    Oh goody. Fresh blood ... dy meat

    Hey boys. There's another yank on the forum. Sharpen the quills

    Welcome to the asylum John. You don't have to be nuts to be here but that does prevent the brain from swelling.

    Cheers
    Richard

    Welcome aboard John,

    I was in Daly City about 10 years ago. Middle of summer, cold and foggy for days. Still if you've got to live in the US, the bay area has got to be the place to be.

    Welcome John , hope you enjoy the time here
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Talking Thanks for the Hi.

    Thanks for the kind welcomes.

    Grunt, do you have family in Daly City. No one comes to visit the city.

    i have to say that back in 1964 I spent a week in Sydney. People were great. i was on R & R from Vietnam.

    regards

    jg

    I was working in both San Francisco, Palo Alto and San Jose. I spent a few days looking for an apartment so I could get out of the crappy hotel I was in.

    I ended up finding a place in Union City.
