The silliest of age gaps
I'm travelling with a friend who is about 10 years younger than me.
Near the Hermitage is "Cooters" the famous Dukes of Hazzard museum with the General Lee on show. To me the show started just as I finished school and was naff, and not my thing.
Lose 10 years and it is a childhood icon, and orange and "01" is a childhood frienship renewed!!
I suppose my thing was Tom and Jerry, the original Adam West Batman and Robin, Deputy Dawg, though I doubt there's a museum for them!
The american obsession with old things
"Did" The Hermitage in Nashville yesterday. Pride of the site was the house itslef, extensively rebuilt in the 1830's after fire damage. Revered for being the home of the slave trading president and General Andrew Jackson we had to show due reverence as we were shown round
I did not like to mentione that our home in England is older than this, and just simply lived in! Mind you if they want to spend a bit helping us restore it to more original style that'd be nice !!
