Title: Hello from a place far away!
Post by: A2VR6 on 31 August 2005, 17:56: Hi, My name is Jonathan and I live in a small state in the USA called Vermont. I joined this board so I can get an idea of what the European VW scene is all about and to just culture myself a little bit more.

IÃƒâ€šÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Also here is a picture of my car using my town as a backdrop :grin:

When you say a small state, Vermont is still probably bigger than the whole of the UK! Isn't it home to Ben & Jerry's as well? Hmmmmm..... :tongue:

Nice picture btw.

Nah its not big at all. Here is a pic of it compared to Texas an some other large states. And yes I live only 40 min away from Ben & Jerry's HQ. BTW I find it interesting that Ben & Jerry's is sold in the UK :smiley:

That part of the states is quite nice, part of New England, probably named that cos it reminds us of home.

Hah I know you have McDonalds, but B&J seemed like fairly local company.

Do you have Cabot cheese there? (aloso from VT)
