When we went to Ukraine, we met a German guy who had been to the Hutsul area to collect folk music. Vaguely thought of trying to go there but transportation links were difficult.

Century City -- large neighborhood and business district in Los Angeles, California. The district was developed on the former backlot of film studio 20th Century Fox, and its first building was opened in 1963. The land of Century City belonged to cowboy actor Tom Mix (1880-1940), who used it as a ranch. It later became a backlot of 20th Century Fox, which still has its headquarters just to the southwest.

Canterbury - city in Kent well known for its cathedral. I well remember my mother dragging us out into the back garden one night to see the red glow 10 miles away which was the mediaeval city burning from the attentions of Hitlers Luftwaffe, we were already awake because of the noise from the aircraft and guns.

Casi, it was just that Hershey's chocolate isn't very good chocolate. That was all. I couldn't agree more Mark. When growing up Hersheys chocolate was the only one I was familiar with. At Easter we would see Cadbury every once in a while. When I discovered European chocolate it was a whole new world that opened up for me and other lovers of chocolate. I think Lindt dark chocolate may well be my favorite.
