yep, and we drive on the left, you drive on the right

oh, and our toilet water swirls in the opposite direction than yours does (this amused my hubby no end when we went to guam last year)

I never noticed which way the toilet water flushes. I'll have to take note.
Using my trusty online temperature converter, that converts to low 70's. I say BRRRRR.I'll be ok with the 5mm and the vest.

Fairy... i was talking tanks to hubby last night... explaining we will need to get some tanks for lds for 3 or 4 days and he suggested we change a couple of our tanks from din valves to yoke

my response "she is a tiny as carole (a friend of our) and if you put a supersteel on her she is going to topple over!"

he actually found the thought of this funny!

North of the Equator it flushes clock wise but South of the Equator it is Counter Clock Wise.
