Yes very impressive views Andre - sort of things us Brits get when....oh no hang on we don't
so if I visit Texas is this place worth visiting. Just google earthed that street and it looks cool. Howvere if its full of students I will hate it ! Never understood why people hated bars with students in when I was a student. As soon as I finished uni I realised ;D
is anyone from Texas by the way ? Might PM them. I have been charged with planning a trip later this year but jesus by looks of everything we re going to need a month. Not sure what posible in 14-16 days (without driving the length of England every day :mad:)

Depending upon what you would like to see in the US, a month won't do. That would barely cover the east coast, unless you plan on a whirl wind tour of half days here and there.

Do you plan to fly or drive?
Reason I ask. is Texas is lower mid west, New Mexico is more to west, Memphis is east coast as is New Orleans. Lota miles to drive if your not used to it.
Re: Post a pic of your local
drive round texas and new mexico
then fly memphis (maybe not time to do new orleans)
done east coast and west coast

Mark TKO,
College Station is a good town and if your trip coincided with a home Texas A&M football game I think it would be worth making a stop. Outside of that though you'd be better off spending time in Austin, Galveston, San Antonio and Dallas/Fort Worth. Let me know the time frame you'd be in Texas and I can tell you some things to check out.
Re: Post a pic of your local
I will get a picture of the bars I go to. Just run of the mill dives. I go 3-4 nights a week at least to stop in for a brew after work.
I don't have a camera on my phone that works.
They are almost always dead, and I can count the times on one hand that hot girls where there. I have come to the realization, however, that I prefer these dead bars playing the same music, over any place kicking with hotties and rap music. "We play both kinds of music: country AND western."
But, something to be said for a place that lets you run a tab for weeks and pay with a check. $2 beers.
I am grateful we still have bars around and you can smoke in them. YAH (Although I don't smoke, I firmly believe you should be in a smoke filled place if you are going ot do some sinnin') The closest bar is too far to ride a horse, so I wish we had some a little closer (I guess that's why I built a private party shack in my yard).
