What's the Difference

  1. Driving on the other side of the road is uncomfortable
  2. You buy petrol in gallons
  3. the road signs are in miles
  4. all of the money notes are the same colour - you have to get them out of your wallet to count them
  5. they still have 1 cent coins - ridiculous
  6. the light and power swithes go up for "on" and down for "off"
  7. beer cans are only 12 oz
  8. beer cartons only hold 18 cans - of 'Lone Star' beer
  9. water goes down the plug hole the other way
  10. the toilet bowls are just wrong
  11. you get paid twice a month - 24 times a year
  12. Most people at our project start work at 8.00am ish and don't leave till after 7.00pm - so I'm told
  13. There's no Cheds
  14. tipping
  15. a bottle of oj last for at least a week - probably due to a lack of Daniel rather than anything in Texas
