    Did you know there's a Boston here in the UK. It's in a county called Lincolnshire.

    They have a football (soccer) team called Boston United. See here if you're interested:

    I'm pretty sure our Boston was named after your Boston as the trend seems to be in the U.S. I like the Red Sox more than the Boston United though.

    Its weird thinking that there's another Boston. That one seems so.... foreign. I guess thats because it is, but you get my point.

    I wasn't aware of an English Boston. Hmmm. I guess I'll have to visit sometime, and hand our Red Sox hats.

    Woo Hoo! Go Southeastern Massachusetts! Home of the RemDawg, former Dodger Greg Gagne and failed Red Sox prospect Brian Rose! I'm a "Southeastern Massachusetts refugee currently stationed in Boston", as I like to call myself.

    Oh yeah, that makes three of us on here so far. But I&#39;m probably the only Portagee (localized slang for a person of Portuguese descent).
