WHAT! I hope you are taking the P and are just pretending to be  some
ignorant, arrogant Englishman who hasn't even seen his own country
properly, let alone some "irrelevant" colony. Always makes me laugh. "Oh

crooks had the last laugh didn't they. Where would you rather be.
Skegness or Bondi Beach? :-)
