I love Britain because:

1. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
2. The Royal Mail !!
3. The Internet works.
4. Petrol is so cheap ...NOT...but I still love it. Something has to pay for all these overpaid expats. Wot did they say about the Yanks during the war? Over paid, over-sexed and over-bluddy-here !! Sounds just like the xpat lifestyle.
5. The weather is healthy !!!
6. Bacon & real Eggs (well I am in the deep south)
7. We have democracy - sort of...
8.

I'm just back from 2 weeks, had a great time, seeing everyone, loads of cheap booze and great grub, friednly people and loads of banter watching the footy.

(Saying that I have no plans to go back for many, many years)

I love Britain simply because home is where the heart is!

and its not a cockroach, letchy men filled, hot sandy pit!

Britain is where we were both born and bred, where we lived most of our lives together but, sadly, neither of us can think of much to love about Britain as it is at the moment

Even more sadly, neither can the majority of our friends with whom we're in regular contact. Double

Simple really.

Hi,
East or West, Home is best.
life is an opportunity given by God to explore the world.
Knowledge is the key to open up everything, and feel it within ourselves.
Enjoy every bit of it.
If you are there, you won't be here, and If you here, you won't be there

...although we invented football...we're crap at it...but can laugh at ourselves ( )
