Each to their own, I love pizza and beer too, but I also like art, the theatre and music. It's tough being an expat.

Sorry to dig up an old topic, but I've had such a giggle today reading through the archives.

'functioning alcoholics with a superiority complex'

'jaded, angry with the world for letting them down, homesick for their mothers'

I've been tarred with this brush many a time, but I'm like a duck....

So, hands up. Who's an English teacher?! :-)

(I suspect a few :-p)

Oh! They must be still in bed, nursing a hangover! :-p

I live in a gated community.

It wouldn't bother me either. I live in a gated community now, only the guards here carry pump action shotguns :-)

Actually...lol

There is no English spirit anymore. We are weak. It ended with Thatcher (sniff). England is not mighty anymore, will never win another war and is open to any rape/corruption/abuse that you can throw at it. Discuss.
