A cycle ride across the US (Rousse)
I cycled miles and miles across the US. The most terrifying part was on the inside lane on the freeways; the most adventurous through dense forests, where the trees and the sky were my only company.
A neglected guest witnesses wax flowers, uncovers a property tax dodge, and sticks up for non-smokers (Rousse)
I visited J and GC at their new house in the US. They had relocated there for G’s job. His role now extended beyond sound production and included procurement. These days star-struck hopefuls would approach him seeking fame and fortune … Continue reading
Dot.com heyday reunion party gatecrashed by secret lover (Rousse)
The huge Sun Microsystems Sunrise reunion was hosted in a massive chain hotel in a major US city. It was almost as if the heady days of the dot.com boom had never ended. My boat was so late docking in … Continue reading
Naked swimmer’s shame (Rousse)
TPR was about to bring even more shame upon us. After our long swim downstream, he hauled himself out of the river in the middle of a densely populated American city, peeled off his wetsuit, and declared that it was … Continue reading
A fateful ferry ride (Rousse)
The hire car was parked just 200 yards away. I was meant to walk this short distance down the road and drive it back to the house. Instead I embarked on a road trip with colleagues TF and RS, and … Continue reading

US citizenship test queries in Colorado (Rousse)
The train set off in the wrong direction – or rather we had joined the west-bound train to Hawaii via Texas, rather the service heading east. We managed to alight at the first stop in rural Colorado, where it was … Continue reading

Fighting Fatty in a field (Rousse)
One minute I was sleeping on a bean bag in a departure lounge of Schiphol airport next to LE and GE. It was so comfortable, but how had we managed to make travel arrangements that required an overnight stay in … Continue reading

Illegal immigration from Canada to the US with a stolen identity (Rousse)
The border between Canada and the US was due to reopen temporarily, but nobody knew for how long. I was determined to cross it. However, as a UK citizen, this would be illegal. As part of my disguise as an … Continue reading
