My dad lived in Altamonte for many years. All I remember about Ocala
was that we played against them in softball, and they usually kicked
our arses...


Now that's interesting. You commented a few posts above about the way
that I spell 'humour', surmising (correctly) that I may be British. Back
at ya now. That's the first time I've ever seen an American spell
'arses' the same as we do, rather than as a donkey-like animal ... ??

You found me out!

I'm a shameless Anglophile. In fact, at this moment I'm watching
Dangermouse DVDs.

Natalie, hoping hubby's next base is in England

Well, that would be nice, especially if you like New England weather and
scenery. Have you visited here before ?

Sadly, I haven't been off the North American continent. :-P

I would guess that the liklihood of a posting here has diminished
considerably in recent years, as a number of the Anglo - American bases
have either closed down or been mothballed since the 'end (??)' of the cold
war. To the east of where I live right in the centre, all the way across to
the coast, it is very flat fenland, so good for runways. I guess that this,
coupled with the proximity to the european mainland, is why all of the
bases grew up there in the first place during WW

Yeah. But perhaps we can go to another European base, and have easy access
to Britain. We can dream.

II, and carried on into peacetime, and then grew further as defensive
bases run largely by your good ol' boys. Do you still have any bomber
forces or whatever permanently located here ? I'm not too sure about that,
to be honest. I used to see practice flights come across my county all the
time, fighters as well, but don't seem to any more.

Dangermouse eh ? I used to watch that many many years ago. Have you ever
come across a UK tv programme called 'Minder' ? If not, there are plenty
of clips on You Tube. It's where my nic comes from, being a deliberate
corruption of the name of one of the two main characters. For no other
reason, I might add, than that I always loved the part he played. It was
representative of gentler times ...

Arfa

Never heard of that one.

I wondered WTF your nick meant!
