    Stuck in Chicago?
    I've lived in Joliet, Chicago for a couple of years and I loved it. Don't understand why I left really.
    Now in England...

    Had you asked this question a few months ago, I could have written Quito, Ecuador or Moscow, Russia as my abode but sadly the call of Saffhampt'n is just too strong to resist.

    Depends on how you view the world, hunny, :p, doesn't it?
    I remember it used to take me half an hour from Joliet to Washington Heights, where I used to work, and that ain't nothing.
    Where I live now, it takes me an hour to get to London and when people ask me where I live, I tell them just outside London..

    I was just saying, you said Joliet, Chicago, like joliet was a subsection of chicago.
    Only being a smartass, no need to get all serious :p

    A wacky broadway fantasy. A big budget one. Probably involving Doris Day.

    Oh thats awsome. I like the city, or at least the parts I've been (excluding the last place I lived, talk about scary) Though I'm from a small tiny town in MN right next to Iowa, so the city is still way cool to me. Its gorgous driving down and seeing the buildings.

    Good bars over there? I've never drank in the city yet :(
    Or are they all overrated.

    i live in Newport, in Wales, which is part of the UK but NOT in England :D

    (reason for capital NOT is that a lot of americans seem to think that Wales is a part of England :( )

    Don't worry it's not your fault your Welsh, it's just one of those things, like the fact some people are born with ginger hair. ;)
