Re: A Briton to be proud of?

I don't think anyone here is singling him out as a Saint, but he's done a good thing and why people feel the need to feel so churlish is rather unbecoming, in my opinion.

Re: Learning Spanish

I am absolutely hopeless at learning foreign languages and now I'm knocking on a bit, it's not getting any easier. The weirdest thing is when I'm in Spain I suddenly find I've become fluent in...

Re: Acid Attack By Muslim Woman

This story sounds very odd to me. A niqab wearing woman lurking at a bus stop at 1 am, equipped with acid to throw into a girl's face? Purlease!

Re: What the ?

Nothing wrong with a bit of British TV, and frankly I'm a bit of a soap fan myself!

What I don't care for are the expats who see fit to criticise everything about the UK as it currently is,...

Re: Go to Spain or somewhere else as the UK is too cold for you.

What a nasty mucky little thread this is. It's a real old "I'm all right, Jack" and sod the others thread, pull up the drawbridge so long as I'm fine.

Did you not read my post? Yes, I lived there for five years, rather longer than the average expat who treats it as a one stop money shop, swoops in, cleans up and then gets the hell out.
