My Thanksgiving
So busy was I putting up personal stuff last week, you may be forgiven for thinking that I overlooked Thanksgiving which was last Thursday here in the ‘states.
Well – I didn’t.
Instead, I did (of course) make another video …

I started my blog as a continuation of the daily write-up that I did when I got 500 people to give me 50p so that I could buy an iPod.
World Record Holders
There's a lot of tube related stuff on this site due to me being a former World Record Holder for travelling around the entire network (275 stations) in the fastest time possible back in May 2004.
Living in the USA
After living in London for the first 33 years of my life and working for the BBC News website I moved to Charleston, South Carolina in the USA in May 2006 for three and a half years before moving back to England and back to work for the BBC in November 2009.
Underground : USA
So for ten weeks in June, July and August 2009, I drove 20,000 miles around the the lower 48 contiguous states of the USA visiting towns and places that shared the same name as places on The London Tube Map.

I just thought I’d be the first comment, since you posted this while I was writing a comment on the last entry…

I was still FTP’ing the video up too… and my connection dropped at 92%. So I’m re-doing it now. F5 to refresh the page and reload the whole video!!
Now that I’ve made the last two, I challenge you to mention me in every video going forward. Well, at least until the end of 2008, since that’s how all our “arrangements” work. There is a film this Thursday through the Be/Buy Local Initiative of two people doing a similar “only mom and pops” adventure, I wanted to see it, but alas trivia needs to be won. And lastly, I love mac and cheese — especially gourmet versions of it. Mmm mmm good!!
Every year, you always slip those red cups in somewhere…
That Mac Cheese in a tub looked awful, you come and see me and I’ll make you a proper Mac Cheese, with egg and mustard and cream. mmmm
Glad to see you didnt spend it alone. My thanksgiving consisted of breaded pork chops instead of a turkey!
Actually Starbucks is part-owned by McDonalds so I dunno if it counts as “the other”. Not sure where I was going with this. Fun video. Might have to get into this video-blogging lark myself.
