Hello from England

[chef k-dude]

Did you drink Guinness In Cork? That was Brave!
Dublin=Guinness Cork= Murphys.

Well, that's how I remember it, but it was almost 40 years ago and my memory isn't as good...well, maybe never was. I did not realize how naive I was. Stupid me thought people loved Americans then. And having red hair HAD to make the Irish love me....right?! Like a dumbarse I thought bringing my bright red white and blue U.S.A. emblazoned sweatshirt was a good idea. It drew shouts of "yankee go home!" from a distance walking down the street. I was lucky I didn't get my arse kicked...the girls found us Americans and Canadians very interesting, the local men and boys...not so much.

I was confused...I'm "Virginian". I'm thinking, "take that one up with Robert E Lee!". "Yankees" start at Maryland and Northwards! I'm much smarter these days and stay where I belong. Hell, a Virginia boy dont even belong in Texas, they call ME a freaking Yankee down there too!...WTF is up with that? I dont need either place, I got all I need right here in the Piedmont of VA.

The closer ya get to the Guinness Brewery,,, the more fantastic it tastes.
Even pub hopping tours dedicated to that.
We booked one and it was fantastic.

Greetings from Minnesota
I enjoyed some wonderful British brews in the Chief's mess on the HMS Birmingham 40 years ago.

Starting retirement this summer.

I lost the link.
There's a British guy on YouTube that runs a Central Texas Style Smoked Meats take-out business out of his dense neighborhood home, maybe in London.
Got his wife's and neighbors OK, all legal with the authorities and is good to go.

Evidently an outstanding effort and teaches his tricks to the viewers.
I'll try and find the channel. A really talented Pitman.
You don't need to use the closed captions to translate from British to American.

BTW:
Walking around Liverpool, Southampton, London and Manchester noticed another American hit, the wild popularity of RHD Ford Raptors big and small:
