Are you still in London?, a trip to Cambridge is well worth the effort, its only 45 miles.  Depending on your interests i can tell you where to go.   Theres punting on the Cam to start with, its a bit cold for that though.

I only went for a few days, it sucked.

Sucked?, and theres you doing a daily blow job. What the fk was i thinking? Lunchtime classical music recitals in the colleges, ancient churches, buildings, castles, museums, architecture going back to the 10^th century, excellent food, shopping, beauty of all sorts.



It would have been like showing Da Vinci to a troglodyte. You can take an American out of America.......

London sux,  yes, London sux. Been there,  done that,  have the passport to prove it.   Please,   give me something better, piggles.

To be honest London is a shithole, and you pay through the nose for it. Britain has many beautiful cities, but nothing beats the countryside. The place i love is the Peak District, it feels like 1076 there. The villages are awesome, Eyam is a must see, look at it on the internet. Last summer we stayed in a cottage built in 1611.

Its walking country, if your not a walker it will be tough, there are countless places to see there. There is the Lake District, but ive never been there, and Scotland, i love vast open spaces, you might not.

Cambridge is a beautiful place, it has zero industry, Ely, The Broads, in Norfolk, you can take a boat out onto the river, The Cornish riviera, countless seaside towns with piers where you can eat fish and chips, play bingo, and play fairground games.

The north can be grim, but the countryside is beaultiful. York with its ancient quarter is great, but its been spoiled by development. Norwich is nice, any cathedral city. If you come here, come in summer.

If you want entertainment, its london, Birmingham, Manchester, etc.

p.s, you can take a punt out on the river in Cambridge, all night.... wink. Punting in summer is a must do.

You had it right the first time. The English cancer has matasticized and spread throughout the UK. The prognosis is grim.

Yeah . . . but they never loved the EU to the extent they were willing to abandon their monetary system in favor of the Euro.

Go figure.

The vote for Brexit was close, i dont believe all brits where you are Mark are against it. Europe is now ruled by Germany and France, they have sucked Britain dry of cash. Europe is as corrupt as it comes, thats normal over there, not here. We play a straight bat, thats a cricketing term for being honest.

All hell breaks loose when a politician fiddles, not over there. Football or soccer reflects the european mindset, the english league is full of fakers, sorry tiki, faking injury, pretending to be fouled or hurt, time wasting, arguing, trying to get an opponent sent off, aggresive vileness. It makes sport pointless if you have to cheat.

The EU is the fourth Reich, it will become like Putins Russia. Britain has always, and will forever be independant, we dont like frogs or krauts telling us what to do, especially when we pay for the privilige. Any large organisation will lapse into corruption its inevitable, like our BBC.

Theres a name for it, i cant remember it, its why elections are important.

There are no elections in the EU. The USA will have a problem with Europe one day, its bound to happen like Britain is today.
