Peterhouse Cambridge has to be my favourite team of all time. They look clueless, they act clueless, they dither and dally, they start badly (minus scores are not unknown), their captain lets it all swill and swish around her as if she's orbiting another planet and yet they have just reached the final. I thoroughly recommend a trip to IPlayer* to catch up on the entertainment!

There's nothing wrong with living in one the sceptered isles' ex-colonies across the pond!

But do you? Large parts of the present USA never were British colonies, of course. And nobody who lives outside the regular broadcasting reach of the BBC can seriously believe there's nothing wrong with where they live.

We do have TV channels that broadcast some BBC and other British stuff, including a daily newscast. I cannot say that such access to British TV has a significant influence on my quality of life.
However, I have spent some time in England and must admit I quite enjoyed it. It's the simple things one remembers, like a daily pint of bitter at the nearest pub or a pound's worth of fish & chips, seasoned with salt and vinegar, and served in a cone of plain white paper. Nobody makes chips like the English do.
It's good to be loyal to your own country. I quite appreciate and understand your position.

Wow, it must have been a long time ago? A pounds worth of fish and chips is around £6 these days

Yes, it was in the 1970s I believe, but when I visited London and spent some time learning about air traffic control systems for civilian airports.

Last night I have attended what manner of previous thread asking advises.
I have brought a simple gift card and male friend.
We ran far away earlier because after a few drink the women played a game. Diapers microwawed with chocolate candy They pretended to be poop and hurt my ears laughing. The game was to smell it and guess correctly the brand, or be given more drink.

So, where I live we have rain showers, snow showers. Occasionally, even hail. I've heard people describe it as 'raining cats and dogs'
But, in all my years, I've never seen it it shower babies. Sounds like it would makes kind of a mess, Crying. Lot's of splatting sounds.

you are too stupid to know how to use that  GOD's WORD is the only physical object that holds both physical and spiritual mass. It is a SWORD that can be used to physically strike demons.

If talking about screwing things up, what profession is the first person who comes to your mind?
