    I used to live in Decatur, Dekalb County, just outside Atlanta. Absolutely loved it. Very friendly people.

    Many Toon fans out there?

    Failing that, anything to do?

    Only time I spent in the Atlanta area was in the airport... which is more or less inevitable for anyone who lives on the east coast for a while... but the coast down there is amazing. Savannah and, further north in South Carolina, Charleston are great little cities; especially if you are into food.

    There were no Newcastle supporters at my college when I arrived, but there were two by the time I left after getting them hooked to watching Saturday morning football.

    I don't really know about any night life stuff as it was 20+ years ago that I lived there and most of our socialising was done at the college. There is plenty to do around Atlanta though. If you're into history then there's all the civil war stuff and also the Martin Luther King center. Stone Mountain is a pretty cool place to visit too. If you get a chance get to a Braves game too. Even if you don't like baseball it's a good experience to have had. I was there when they won the World Series in 95 and it was amazing. But don't just stick to Atlanta. Flights and car hire are cheap and there is loads to see throughout the South East.

    Wow, Jesus would have been proud of you. With a conversion rate similar to yours there would have been about 56 Catholics in the World by now.

    Jesus would also have been proud of you for being kind hearted enough to read Nev's post. I saw the length of the post and the author's name and thought "nah, fook that".
