Hello Cascode welcome to the forum, there are a few Brits knocking about on here. I joined when I was hunting round the internet for some Mexican food items for my husband (he occasionallly posts on here too as LondonHalo), hope you find it as friendly and welcoming as I have.

Don't start getting teary-eyed on us, cascode. You know how rude we Americans can be. :)

I know, cascode. I was going with the stereotype a lot of Brits so often project onto Americans. Have you (and anyone else reading this link) ever heard of the Meyers-Brigg Type Indicator? If not, check it out. It's really on the mark with personality types. Sixteen combinations, boiling down to combinations of four basics: extraversion (or extroversion)--E, vs. introversion (self-explanatory)--I; intuitive (N) vs. sensing (S) (going with gut feelings vs. going with the facts at hand); feeling (F) vs. thinking (T) (not the way it sounds: whether you're more inclined to take emotional factors into account, or more inclined to stick with the facts before you); and perceptive (P) vs. judgmental (J): again, not as it sounds--it basically means how you deal with the first three in handling things: P still goes with gut feeling; J goes with what would follow given the facts. Anyway, check it out. In the States, the Type Indicator is now frequently used just to see which workers would click with others. There's a book out titled "Please Understand Me." It's a cheesy title, but fascinating book.

He looks very much like a Scots Electrical Engineer, and she very much like a Geogia lass.  Is that a fair guess?    Gretna for romantic reasons, or to escape parents??  ;)

There goes the British sarcasm. Cascode, do you mean to say that both you and your underage spouse are under 16/18, depending on the country's legal age of consent? :)

Off topic here but since I have the power... mua ha ha ha!

http://www.keirsey.com/  will link you to the Meyers-Briggs mini test of sorts.  I took it as part of a public admin class a few years ago.. no major suprises ...

so what type are you?  ;D

ENFP here -or at least I was... need to take it again I think. :)

BBC actually did a personality test a few weeks back, and it was all based on Myers-Briggs. It was pretty well done, but, considering time limitations, not all that in-depth. But, you can probably find their toned-down version of the test online on their web site.

Oh...he he ... hi Cascode. Welcome!

vnice,

I'm an ENFP, too. My husband's an INFP. So combined, we're two overly sensitive, give-the-benefit-of-the-doubt types. :)

Ah. Maybe you missed the wedding picture I posted......and I have inadvertently deleted it out of photobucket.
It was humour, not sarcasm. Hence the smiley.




I was also attempting humor, cas. Hence my smiley. Sigh. If one can't trust a jack-o'-lantern to make one's point, whom CAN one trust?  ;D

I can't download the pic, cascode. Sigh. But Andrew and I are planning to head north ISO the Loch Ness Monster one of these days--care to be our guide?  ;)

I sent some pics (or a pic) of Andrew and me to Leah some time back because I was too thick to figure out how to log it on the photo gallery, but it's not there, and it wasn't exactly Ansel Adams material, regardless.

We had a small (Andrew, Andrew's parents, and me) ceremony at the Brighton registrar's office, so there aren't a lot of photos to see of that. However, I have some FASCINATING ones of our hanging out with one of my brothers and sisters-in-law in a chip shop. The stuff that dreams are made of... :)

Excuse late reply. Been away from home. We spent a week or so in Bath, UK.

Then you were in our back yard! We should have looked out the window!
