No I am not from the UK, but have visited London a few times as a kid and once as an adult. I love London and enjoyed visiting Bath, England also. As a kid I lived in Ireland as well. I love the UK and Ireland, and would really like to visit Scotland one day. Chips are french fries and biscuits are cookies (translation for Americans).

I'm from the UK.
It's okay I think. I'd say there are better countries and worse countries.
I like the fact that we don't tend to have major disasters like hurricanes or earthquakes, and that our weather is generally mild.

Wondering how many people are from my area...
Doesn't seem like a lot of people with aspergers live around here... Only person I know of is my dad.

I recon that we're rather lucky being in the UK.

No where is perfect but inspite of problems we are probably one of the most tolerant countries and have one of the best support systems going, so while there's always a lot we can moan at there's an awful lot of stuff that we take for granted that isn't just out there in many countries.
Birmingham does have its problems but so does Wolverhampton, and look around for the positives, you may have a pleasant suprise

I had bullying somewhat at school but kept most in control cos I could argue and out talk them. Sounds like you've had a right rough time, especialy the burglary on your 18th and getting stabbed.

are you in a rough part of brum?

Im in a non too salubrious part of wolves, but being on a main road does make it a tad safer

no wonder you aint in college, what would you like to do with your life if you get a chance

I was in college :) Just finished and passed this years course...
Hoping to get on to another course next year at bournville and yeah I live around the newtown area which is mainly full of black people... Not being racist lol It's the truth.

Most of the people around here don't like white people and my first school they hated me... got stamped on in the playground but I did fight back... then got kicked out and sent to stockland green which was the same... Stabbed etc

The person who robbed us on my 18th never stole anything apart from my ps3 and my moms jewellery but left all the televisions and pc and xbox etc

It's someone who knows us... because I'm always in the house I barely ever go out and the one night I do go out... my room is trashed and so is my moms...
