Anybody here from Upstate, NY?
 

There's a good possibility I'll be moving to the Albany area in July.:hmmm::o

Hi Jason, sorry but no, I don't think Burra in South Australia is even close! :hmmm:

(clearing throat in that oh so annoying way of mine)


Albany is in central New York. People from Upstate will remind you of that often. :)

Had me worried for a second Jason, there's an estate called New York on the other side of the Tyne about three miles from me and that is one hell hole.

I'm guessing that by estate you mean a section of town or city. To us an estate could either mean the property of a deceased person or a large private home.

New York? Get a rope.

I would love to go to New York. Sorry, but I don't live there.
If I were in New York City, I would be singing Frank Sinatra in the streets! :D

Yeah, probably to the sound of annoyed New Yorkers shouting out their windows "Hey!! Youse down there!! Pipe Down!! I'm tryin' to sleep up here!!"...





<O>

I used to live in Rochester, NY. They were not friendly, especially to southerners

There is a big difference between New York City and Upstate New York. You can't talk like they are one in the same.

I grew up near Rochester in my larval state.



I went back to visit my town 20+ years after leaving it. Other than the names of the shops changing, the big change was that they got an actual traffic light on the main intersection of the town instead of the blinking red light when I was there.


Change comes slowly to some parts of NY

Lived in Henrietta for a long after moving from Texas. It can be a beautiful place, and the school districts were actually pretty good. Unfortunately, I have not been back since moving back to the south

Are you moving with your whole family or at least your dog?

I lived in Walworth. There were maps of Wayne County that did not have my town on it. :D
