When Nutek said he might not post anymore, the need for a referendum went out the window.

I think it was an executive decison. Maybe we should get the BE mods to step up into the Brexit mess. they'd wield a banhammer and fix it

I have my own list but it's always helpful to hear opinions of others.

Opinion sent. Normally people avoid asking.

My English friends are never boring about the Good Old Days; I guess they must be more pleasant people than your English friends. There are sixty million English, or near enough; you and I have just met different selections of them, that's all.

Obviously I'm generalizing, but it's definitely a common British sentiment to act like there is still an Empire and that the UK is far more important than it actually is. And I get the impression I lived there way longer than you did!

Re: Getting tired of the USA

I got tired of France so we left. Anytime I feel a bit homesick now, I eat my way through a packet of chocolate hobnobs trying to figure out if I miss the UK or France. Nope, not France. Yeah, if you're unhappy move but as uncle Bob says - same shit, different bucket. Now that is about the wisest non-sentence I've heard in a long time.
