An American Perspective on Living in England
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 сер 2024
- I've talked a lot about our upcoming trip to England, but often lost in the shuffle is the fact that Tarah herself once lived there. As a Lancaster University student in 2005, she essentially did (in reverse) what I have done in the U.S. And so, there's no better time to get her perspective (as an American) of life in England.

Tarah, I love your glasses very much☺
Tarah Cantrell YAY, so excited! Love the whole old fashioned vibe, so classy!
Great stuff you two! Hope you have a lovely trip! I had to get used to that "are you all right" bit too, having come from northern Indiana to live in London since 2004 :-D (Sue from Indiana)
I love how pleased he looks each time she talks. It’s awesome.
I noticed that, too!
Lost the Pond man your wife seems so cool you're a lucky man to have found such a great person and she's lucky to have met someone as cool as you. you go great together best wish to you and the wife on your trip to the United Kingdom stay safe
unlikely to get shot anyway
She hot aswell 😍
I’ve often heard this: “In Britain, 100 miles is a long way. In the US, 100 years is a long time.”
That is in the "ABOUT" tab for this very channel.
True!
Heh heh I've said that Britons and they hadn't heard it before.
I haven't heard this before either, however being an American living in the UK for 15 years, I definitely agree! :-D
That's because you're doing 60 on the freeway.
“We were both in love with me” haha 😂
I thought that was hillarious 😂
I didn't even catch that!
It was a real treat to have both of you in the video. You are a delightful couple.
Remember a few months ago when Tarah refused to be seen on-camera? Now she's like an old pro.
careful. You know what that means.
@@fionagregory8078 What does it mean ?
Glad to see you back Tarah.
Forgot to mention that I am jealous, I love Cat Eye glasses but not many can pull it off like you do.
I prefer looking at her front.
To put it politely bigger women can wear cat's eye glasses without looking like a lunatic. Smaller women just can't.
It’s really hard not to look whether you are male or female. I am female and don’t care at all, however they are so blatantly “out there” it’s hard not to notice. I wouldn’t take offense to it, I think from the men’s perspective it’s a huge compliment. And if it bothers you that much there are clothes that cover as opposed to advertising one’s attributes.
Forcing someone to accept a tip sounds very Midwestern.
You two are adorable. Tarah, your hair is beautiful. I think your displays of affection are heartwarming.
Never ever ever be unwilling to ask any person for assistance here in the UK! We don't bite you know
Well not very hard anyway lol
Oof, the biting thing is creepy
I love you guys together! I mean yeah, you’ve been together for a long time but you guys are not only adorable but very interesting and informative.
You guys are awesome, so smart, so respectful. Thanks for not bashing the U.S.
Not bashing the UK would be good too. ..!!!
I was in a small group visiting the USA (we were being headhunted) and we were invited to a large drinks party, told it would start at 8pm. (Britons can probably guess what I'm going to say!) So we carefullly worked out our timings, and even drove there as a dry-run to make sure. Hmm, 8pm, so that means we should arrive at 9 pm at the very earliest, and add another 30 minutes so that we're not the first and thus too conspicuous, and of course you don't want to turn up exactly on a quarter hour or half-hour, so we turned up, pleased with our calculations, on the dot of 9.38pm. (Britons are probably concurring with our thinking, while Americans can probably guess what I'm going to say!) The atmosphere was cool and unjolly for about 2 hours, until our timing happened to be mentioned, by us in a light-hearted way. Turns out they'd really meant it when they said the party would begin at 8pm. They'd all turned up at 8pm. To them, we'd turned up extremely and rudely late and hadn't even apologised. Once we'd explained and apologised, the party warmed up hugely and eventually was a big success.
My father was in US Air Force and he was stationed at High Wycombe for 4 years in the early 60's (family came along too). We lived "on the economy" as they say in the little town of Chalfont St Giles. Anyway your point about verbal misunderstandings reminded me. This was the early 60's as I said so some terms hadn't lost their ability to shock the British populace. My mother goes into the local pharmacy (chemist) and said she need something or other because one of us kids had a "bloody nose". My mother soon learned that she probably should say, "my son's nose is bleeding."
My wife and I went to the UK (from Texas) for our honeymoon a few years ago, and absolutely enjoyed every moment of it. We spent most of our time in Scotland, but also met with some of her coworkers in Nottingham. In any event, both of us have a very strong desire to return, and spend more time experiencing all that the UK has to offer (specifically, I'd like to spend more time in England). In regard to the people, I cannot think of a single rude interaction that we had, and in fact our interactions with UK natives are among the reasons that we have such a strong desire to go back.
Jack Currence Had my Semester Abroad in Nottingham. I miss it.
Jack Currence, We'd love to have you come visit us again man. Come down to Devon and Cornwall - maybe next year in Plymouth would be good as we'll be celebrating the 400th anniversary of the departure of the Mayflower - there are sure to be many Americans here and you'll be warmly welcomed!
I don't know why Nottingham is a place you want to come back to (I live here) but I hope you get to once everything goes back to normal.
Hi Gloria Stroedecke, I’m on lockdown in Nottingham, so I miss it too ;-)
Jack Currence. People like you are very welcome... hope you manage to come back some day. 👍
Tarah has impossibly perfect skin!
Porcelain
Heavy makeup. Hello?
She does have beautiful skin. She is really a beautiful lady.
Question: is it just me or does she not bare a striking resemblance to Zooey Deschanel?? I thought at first it was the similar retro style, but she also looks like her in the face as well. kind of sounds like her, too. it's quite interesting because Lawrence makes me think he's essentially what would happen if Stephen Fry and Ricky Gervais had a baby and then let David Mitchell raise him, and now he's married to the cuter Deschanel sister.
@@FigaroHey - Heavy makeup would not hide imperfect skin though.
Two small things that always trip me up when I visit the UK are:
1) The "For Rent" signs over there are "To let" and you see them everywhere and I always see "Toilet" when I see them.
2) I always go to the wrong side of the car to get in and I always will.
You are both so well-spoken. This is currently my favorite UA-cam destination.
You are a lovely couple! Thank you for sharing.
I was 22 when I first went to the UK: I flew in from Paris on a Sunday evening.
I secured a room in a B&B in the Old Brompton Road through the tourist desk at the airport, and called it a day. The next morning I asked the nice man at the desk what bus I needed to get to Buck House (for the Changing of the Guard), and he told me ‘out the door, up about a quarter mile, and then left’. The directions lead me not to the bus, but to Buck House!
After the ceremony I asked a nice man passing by which way I should go to get to the Tower of London, and he said, “I’m headed that way, why don’t you join me.”
Well, between the ease of getting to Buck House and the generous help from the kindly gentleman (as well as the ability to read street signs for a change after my first two weeks ever in Europe), I fell in love with London.
And I have remained in love with London and the UK to this very day, 47 years later.
If you're up north "straight up", certainly in Cumbria, will mean "straight on" and not necessarily ascend. I learned that when driving a Cumbrian friend and she said "straight up" so I drove up the hill and she told me she'd meant drive straight on, except that she still used "straight up" when she was trying to explain - took ages for her to be understood.
I really have enjoyed seeing Tarah on here too! I’ll have to go go back and watch more videos with her cohosting with you!
Her stories make me think a bit of my time living in the Lakenheath/Thedford area with I was about 5 to 9 years old and my Dad was assigned to Lakenheath RAF. I remember the first time a girl about my age spoke to me in the base library with what seemed to a thick British accent… I couldn’t make out what she was trying to say to me, no matter how many times I asked. I remember feeling so embarrassed!
I have very fond memories of the small Catholic Church in Thetford. There were no children in the parish and most of the parish seemed to be (from my child’s perspective) the sweetest elderly British ladies. They doted on me, my sister, and the American brother and sister who were about our age and good friends of ours. We would then, after Church, get bags of bread and feed the ducks in the lovely little pond nearby. I’m sure Thetford has changed a lot in the past 25 years, but in my head, it’s still quaint, and the Newsagent and the little Weigh & Save candy store are still there, just as I remember them.
Thanks for the walk down memory lane and for sharing your experiences!
The biggest difference between Britain and the US I got from this video was, Speaks with Hands and Does Not Speak with Hands.
I'm a Brit and I use BIG HANDS but then again I have ADHD and over-enthusiasm is kind of my thing.
I never noticed until I read your comment. So true.
@@kimifur I'm from the other side of the pond, also have ADHD, but generally don't tend to be very physically expressive when I talk; even if it feels like I am, I look at myself in the mirror and my face barely changes ( to my knowledge I also don't move my arms very much, I'm not really paying much attention to that when I talk either 🤷🏿♀️ honestly I feel like that has more to do with our perspective and how we feel towards others, whether we feel more comfortable with people in general or feel like we have to keep to ourselves; I for one tend to be a more keep to myself type, so I feel like that's a definite possibility for a connection)
@@TS_Mind_Swept Interesting! Would you consider yourself more inattentive type rather than hyperactive/impulsive type? As I have combined presentation so am very hyperactive. Perhaps that has something to do with the big hands thing, too?
@@kimifur I'm definitely far from not being hyperactive, it's just that most of it happens inside my mind (like my pain and sorrow, haha..ha..)
My husband and I just visited the UK last year. Your description about the food was sooo on target. We had some British friends take us around to some pubs to eat. The food reminded me of just Southern cooking at the house back when I was a kid. Its potatoes and roast with veggies ! I was like this is Southern food without salt 😄 LOL.. i have to say that their dessert was great though. The Banana Bread Pudding with custard was to die for ! I also noticed their gardening skills. Pretty impressed. Made me want to take up gardening too.
We prefer to taste the ingredients rather than deluge with either salt or sugar. ..and the British don’t eat fish and chips, pies and puddings like that at home all the time... we have very eclectic food tastes and subsume other cultures food. I consider our food to be some of the best...our Dairy produce ie, Cheese can rival any French Cheese. , our fish and seafood is the best..and our cows have been the base for a lot of countries livestock .Argentina America..all have a large number of Aberdeen Angus, and Hereford as the-base of their stock...Welsh Lamb rivals any New Zealand Lamb. ....Americans seem to believe we still eat like we did in the War,when we were rationed...they forget we had little choice both figuratively and literally...before the war our food was as good if not better than yours. It took a while for rationing to stop and for availability to reassert itself.
Our animal welfare is the best too...!!
Awwww, the kiss at the end. 😊
The thing about American people thinking stuff from 1800s is old, which I know you're generalizing because mostly it's true; however I wonder if that's regional and cultural. I always feel 1800s was so recent, like learned that in school as a kid in the 90s my mind was blown. Like slavery was abolished only 154 years ago. California(my home state) became a state only 169 years ago.
I'm sure because of my ethnicity I learned about where my people came from before Spain arrived and I visit the ruins as a kid. But yeah, all the native American history is here, but you have to seek it out and it's worth learning the history.
I can't wait to see the videos from England.
You know, I was born and raised in California. It always seemed like such a new State that when I looked at your comment about it being admitted to the union 169 years ago I thought, that can’t be right. Then I did the math and you are right. I read lots of history and the US is such a young nation that it seems that it came into existence just a few years before I was born.
Feel like it depends entirely on the person. I don't think the 1800's is very old at all, sure to someone who literally couldn't care less about history and is just like turned off they're probably like "that old crap" but to me I think that even 100 years isn't that long, especially since our planet has existed for billions of years so to say that 100 years is *long* is kinda dependent on what you think *long* is
I love it when you two do a video together. You guys make a cute couple.
This is the opposite of me and my boyfriend. I'm from Grimsby and he's from LA! He's hopefully visiting here for the first time at Christmas. So far, he thinks London is full of cobbled streets and that's how it is everywhere. He'll get a culture shock when he visits Grimsby! ;)
I presume _"LA"_ does NOT mean _Louisiana...😊_
The Rachael Edit Well? It's been over a year now. Tell us about the visit!
henry hobson Hi Henry! We had a lovely time over Christmas in London. Unfortunately the currently situation has separated us more than usual but I’m hopeful we can be reunited soon 🙂
The Rachael Edit Thanks for the reply! I'm happy that things are "moving along" with you two. This whole pandemic thing will be over with soon hopefully, and I'm sure he will welcome you to California!
henry hobson That’s nice of you! I’ve been a few times now to visit him. Have a lovely day 🙂
TARAH LOOKS LIKE PENELOPE FROM CRIMINAL MINDS. YOU GUYS ROCK
Tarah is prettier than Penelope
Looks like a sister
She's built just like her too.
Much better looking than Penelope, though! Similar personalities.
I paused Game of Thrones to watch this. This is how much I love y'alls channel.
Dustin Sipes - Goodness, that must have taken some willpower!
Ran into the non-tip thing in New Zealand 30-odd years ago. Asked, and was told that it wasn't generally expected. It was actually a very interesting discussion. I asked what they would do with tips, and the bartender pointed to a big jar on the top of the bar. Basically, if you provided a tip, it went in the jar for an annual Christmas party (this was like a 5 gallon jar, not tiny) and I slipped him 50 of New Zealand money. They are very friendly folks, and 30 years ago, I could pad the expense account, so worked out for everyone!
The other thing was "dip". I quit years and years ago, but no one in New Zealand had ever had Skoal, apparently. That earned me multiple free drinks in bars in Wellington, because they had (then) a culture that still smoked, but had no idea about the "pinch between your cheek and gum". Second trip, I took 3 cans of Skoal, because the folks working the bar were incredibly interested in a different way to consume tobacco.
Need to get back there. Been to Great Britain as well, but that was when I was a tiny youngster, as a military brat. And I wasn't doing Skoal at that age!
I did the semester abroad in Madrid and didn’t realize that I spoke classroom Spanish and not actual Spanish until I stepped off the plane. Getting lost was a big problem and considering that I am geographically challenged, getting lost is a way of life. Once I met my flatmates and got lost with them, it was a big adventure. Even though it goes without saying, you two are adorable underscore AF.🦋💜🦋
That is spot on about customs officials, regardless of country.
"Do you have a seething hatred of other people? Well then, have we got a job for you!"
Translate that into whatever language you want.
Never met an angry custom official. Maybe you can't follow simple instructions?
@@arrgghh1555 Sounds like YOU should apply for a job with them.
The very worst become TSA screeners
Or worse! Get demoted to working local transit and destroying it!
See, then it necessitates a causation argument; do angry people seek out the Customs Enforcement profession or do the rigors of the job eventually turn someone angry?
I love how Lawrence (and most Brits I’ve met) has lived in the US for so long and still has his accent. An American goes to the UK for a week and comes back with an accent..😂😂😂😂
I just recently found your channel and am watching older videos. The videos with Tarah are my favorite. It’s very cool watching watching you interact with each other; you are both intelligent and fun.
You’re both lovely people and make a lovely couple as well. Love these videos of you two together
I love her hair style and glasses. I like ladies who rock the 40's 50's style. Similar example is the Girl on American Pickers Show
What a lovely pair.
Thank you for bringing us along your life journeys.
You two are so much fun I love watching your shows.
I studied abroad in London '06. I completely understand what you mentioned throughout this video. I was fortunate to have met several ladies from the UK summer '05, therefore I was able to visit and experience a bit of culture, which I absolutely loved. I definitely learned a lot, not only about other cultures, but a ton about myself. Great video!
Who was she ?
Just found this channel recently. Been watching a lot of these and I love when you mention your wife and it's so awesome to see a video featuring her! You guys are tooo cuuute
Enjoyed this SO MUCH! You two are a delightful couple and seem to be well-suited for each other.
Tarah that was very interesting! You're a great speaker! I look forward to your UK trip vlogs! Greetings from Boston!
That was really interesting and very eloquent - thank you Tarah. I shall definitely check out your website. I've never been to Lancaster but you definitely make it sound like my kind of place so I going to have to go there
Having ancestral ties to England, and hoping to visit someday, I love hearing all your videos about life in the UK! And you are both so unbelievably cute!
Interesting. I often read about Germans, and perhaps some other Europeans as well, finding it strange that Americans use "How are you?" as a greeting. It sounds like the British do something very similar with "Are you all right?" I'm surprised that Americans are always poked fun of for this when the British do it too.
Brits usually just say “y’alright” (shortened for ‘you alright?’), or just “alright” to which you’d reply back saying “alright”, or “good, you?”.
@@lunaluna6459
Yeah it makes sense to me. Just not to Germans, apparently. :)
Trifler500 - I think they’re more direct and literal and so think it’s an actual question, the way it’s said in England, usually with passerby’s, it does sound like a greeting.
I like your hair Tarah, can't wait to see the next step...except I must wait, lol. Good video as always.
I love this. I've been around this world and the best part is getting lost and finding the realistic part of that culture, not just the tourist areas. One thing though, read up on the basics of where you're going. Tipping is the most common mistake Americans make overseas.
Pro tip: Find a friendly local and ask where they're going to lunch. Offer to pay or something. You'll inevitably find the best food of your life. Make sure, of course, to keep yourself safe.
This was an exquisite chat!! I love the topics covered...especially fish and chips and leaving a tip.
I really enjoyed this! I did my masters in Bath and had some similar observations! Back in America and I miss England/UK so much!
What great stories! Enjoyed this video! Looking forward to your videos of your trip to England!
Yall did great tonight! I see things just keep getting Better!
I know you kind of briefly mentioned that places or structures we consider "old" in the US are like only a couple hundred years old because people don't consider the lives and history of native Americans.
I live in New Mexico and we're technically one of the youngest US states but our history is rich and spans across a very long time. We have, for example, some old cliff dwellings from the ancient Chacoan people which I find just utterly fascinating! Also out in the Rio Puerco valley, there's a hiking trail that leads to these huge petrified trees and ancient petroglyphs.
The trail is actually called Seismosaurus trail because, you guessed it, a seismosaurus was excavated there. Talk about ancient history!
I busted out laughing when you said you were going to England in May. I'd just been watching the videos where current Julie visits prepandemic Julie and she talks about how much traveling she has planned 😂😭
I love your videos. I’m moving from Los Angeles to London next month and your videos are just fantastic. Thanks for sharing
The first time I went t GB was on a redeye. I was dazed, trying to stay awake to have a normal nights sleep later, was wandering about and found a cute pub in Mayfair for lunch. I ordered the fish and chips. It came with mushy or smashed peas which was new to me. It was DELICIOUS. However, as I was leaving the server was running me down the street. His manager had thought I had lifted an umbrella! The nerve. I most certainly had not, and in fact I was on my way to the close by Marks and Spencer (name?) to purchase an umbrella.
Long story short, on my next trip a few years later I went back for the wonderful fish and chips, but sadly, it wasn't really as good. But I wasn't accused of stealing from the umbrella room, so that was a plus.
Tarah looks gorgeous ! I also love the hairstyle ! By the way, that was the best outro! Tarah is super cute !!!
You are both very charming. I enjoy these a lot. Thanks for telling your experiences. I hope to be an expat someday and it is good to hear about others who have done it.
Love Tara's input..I would love to see more of this
This vid is so much fun! Really enjoyed it.
Lawrence's little glowing smile after the kiss! Adorable!
Good to see Tarah is well on the mend,hope you both have a great time over here! \m/
Oh my gosh, if people kept asking me. "Ya alright?" I would totally be wondering if I looked bad in some way.
Them: "You alright?"
Me: "Why! What's wrong?! Do I look not alright?!"
In America the appropriate answer is "what is it that up in the sky."
Easiest piece of advice for American traveling to UK for the first time. When crossing the road look right and then left.
Just discovered your channel. Love it! I am a new subscriber and total Anglophile. Best wishes for a happy trip.♥️🇺🇸🇬🇧
John Symons Welcome! Glad you can join us.
You all right? Hilarious. I had the same reaction. I’ve been to the UK a few times while my son studied there and I clearly remember thinking What? What’s wrong? Am I giving off some kind of weird vibe or something? Do I look dazed and confused? What??
Great video guys I enjoy watching your videos keep them coming and you all should do more videos together.
I'm so hooked. I love this UA-cam channel and this British-American couple. Lovely people
The few Brits I've known would often point out "proper English". One in particular was focused on the Queens English. Maybe that's one of the reasons I like this channel, a balanced view toward the origins of British and American English.
I love Tara's glasses!! I spent a term abroad in England too, but that was in the 70s. I remember that there were still bombed out buildings in London. I lived with a family in Wyebridge, Surrey.
I love you two! I hope I get a chance to get back over there. I did Ireland but want to see Scotland and England.
Love Tarah's vintage look. In Baltimore, we refer to that style as "Hon." She rocks it!
And she would fit perfectly in a John Waters film (a newer one of course; not the somewhat disturbing early ones).
Loving this channel that I just discovered in the last couple weeks!
Yes. Crabs for Christmas
I love ❤️ when you have Tarah on.
My Mum was from Norfolk. Been back there 4 times 1954, 1973, 1987 and 1995. I find for whatever reason I can get around London very easily. With exception of the London Busses, haven't figure them out yet. The Tube however is fantastic! Get you anywhere or at least close to where you want to be.
I couldn't believe how humid London was. My hair frizzed like crazy.
I visited London last year and it was lovely. I live in Bahrain now and have traveled all over the world. I’ve never felt more at home outside the US than I did in the UK. I purposefully choose to have my layovers in London now than in Dubai because of how welcome I feel. But there are definitely folks who are from the UK who I’ve met on the way to the US, who don’t want their kids learning “American English”. Interesting. But I can’t blame them for their disgust of our quaint language. Lol. Cheers.
Tarah looked quite nice today. And I appreciated what she had to say.
Great video, Larry!
One thing I remember from our trip to England. We had just gotten off the airplane and went to this big bus terminal in London. I remember the female announcer talking and thinking to myself, “She’s speaking English, but I can’t really understand what she’s saying. This may be more difficult than I thought.”
I am always completely baffled why Americans struggle with English. OK some of the accents in Liverpool or Newcastle for example can take a bit of concentration, but London???
I am from the Midlands, and have worked abroad teaching English. My accent is considered a little posh and clear, and yet yanks really struggled to understand me. Very strange.
I love you guys! My wife and I enjoy Europe and Asia but have not gone to England. That could be our next adventure
Love your wife; she is so well spoken and easy going.👍👍
A friend and I got hopelessly lost in Edinburgh and finally a black cab showed up. We were not even sure of the hotel but the 50 to 60 yo driver got us there. Turned out we were not far from the hotel so it was a couple pounds, but I gave him 5 because I was in a hurry to get to the bathroom and he seemed very put out.
New subbie here, binge-watching. I love you two! So funny :)
I am so happy you love my home city of Lancaster. Been watching your channel for a while now, really enjoying it 👍💜💙💚💛. TK max is still opposite the station in Preston
I think this is very interesting. Love you guys! From Washington DC
Great video, love you guys! Back in the late '00s I was engaged to a girl from Edinburgh (Scotland of course) and it didn't work out because of the difficult and expensive immigration process. I wonder if you might go through your experience with US immigration? Most people think that if you're married you just get to come here and that's it, but it couldn't be farther from the truth. It's a frustrating, at times complex and very much an eye-opening experience. Also, regarding food, we mostly enjoyed each other's food but I must say some of the combinations she had were odd LOL ... such as "beans on toast" for breakfast. And her love of HP sauce was out of this world. Have a wonderful and safe trip! :)
I love your wife she's great in front of the camera, so natural and funny. More, Tara please. PS I was at Lancaster Uni too, remember the Sugar House ?
Oh no.... Is Laurence becoming too “Americanized”? 😂 How are you feeling Tarah, Are you nervous traveling that far so soon? Loving the hair!
Tarah Cantrell That’s great! Yes, you only live once that’s a great reason to “JUST DO IT”! However it turns out, it’s going to be yours ya know? OWN IT... unless it’s green... eh own that too!😄❤️
You guys are so cute. And I enjoy your humor, perspective and commentary.
We say "Alright?" but it is a rhetorical question. lol In the nicest possible way we are not expecting any response other than "Alright?" back....:)
btw, I love the flower in your hair!
I grew up in the American Midwest (Illinois) and eventually moved to the South (Arkansas) where I was also startled to have people ask me "Are you all right?" as a puzzling greeting. Like Tarah, I also wondered what was wrong with the way I looked. Interesting that she heard this in the UK.
"What's up?" ....not sure the sun maybe?
I love the pearls; elegantly simple....it's all you need jewelry wise, nothing more (maybe except for your wedding ring)!
Once again a goodie Love the both of you and Laurence not to embarass you but I can see the pride in your face when Tarah is talking and you both reallly love each other. I can relate to Tarah about getting lost in a city you arent familiar with It happened to me in NYC I kept going in circles ending up in the same spot I started at I gave up and took a cab . But all in all loved the video you two are great .
Europeans are generally less optimistic than Americans,not just the English. Our histories are more complex and our memories longer.
Wow!!!! Laurence, u lucky bastard. 👍
It has been snowing this weekend, here, too (here=Belgium. Admittedly, it wasn't in Brussels where I live, but in the higher up regions of the Ardennes). May snow, that's been a while.
Love you guys!!
My mother always thought of herself as a Pendle Witch, as she was born in nearby Burnley. And she liked to tell the tale of her and dad trying to drive to Pendle hill one day. And not managing to actually find a road to it.
Cobblestones are nice. :) roads in England are tiny (I’d be terrified to be a bus driver).
You are so darn gorgeous Tarah!
