I must admit that I've never been to UK but I traveled a lot in Western and Eastern Europe, living in "both", plus now in Canada.

commenting on the social structure, education, poverty level, housing, politics etc when you have 'travelled' and never lived there is a bit rich, let alone when you have never actually been there at all!!!!

I cannot believe how well those Dutch kids on the video clip speak English

We moved twice, not traveled twice. But even traveling, it doesn't take much effort to compare the size of potholes on highways, or food prices, or to see how buildings are maintained etc. Once again, speaking of UK, I've seen it only on TV, but I doubt it's much worse than on the continent. And I have some general idea about the salaries in different countries.

good grief are you serious, have you actually looked at this article, of course not or you would not have posted as above. it has nothing to do with pot holes, and everything to do with the POPULATION of a country, and how it is failing its children in many different areas. nowhere does it pertain to people passing through the land commenting on how expensive the potatoes are. i'm really not sure what your point is.

i've seen lots of stuff on TV, tell me is that star trek ship ever coming home with darth vader on it.

actually don't worry, i'm tired and have only just cottoned on that you must be baiting me.
