Well, you had enough interest to ask me for my views, albeit in a dismissive manner.

You could have asked me that one question in the last sentence and you could have saved quite a bit of typing. See post #9 for some answers to your question.

I don't have a "vested interest in Britain" but I most certainly do in America.

I've a vested interest in both countries....so its hard for me to understand why you want to be here, especially with no connection to Britain.

Just look out for the ones with the dark clouds over their heads.

Glad to hear you are enjoying your stay. Is it permanent? Good location, by the way.

Look Lisa, just move on then. You don't have to read whatever I post.

If you ever want to chat in the future, in a more friendly way, then I'd be happy to do so. Really.

Take care.

No - here for a few years then back home. Its a great location although I've really liked the other parts of the US I've visited.

Just look out for the ones with the dark clouds over their heads.
I don't see it like that I'm afraid. I find the cynacism and sarcasm funny - I guess its a Brit thing, although having said that most of my work colleagues find it funny too.
