The sun never sets on the English empire...
I was going to put a one liner here but I think that this thread deserves more.
You have to hand it to the England. They are a country the size Ohio but they produce everything and produce it well. Cars, Aircraft, Boats, Guns, etc... Most countries are only known to produce a few things well...not England...They make everything well.
The Tower of London...Glad I wasn't a resident but a great place to visit. The tour guides "yeoman" I think they care called are too funny.
London, great city would love to visit again soon!!
Portsmouth...Rich with Naval history. You can see where Lord Nelson fell on deck and utimately met his death down below.
There so much more to see, just wish I had the time...
Spent a lot of time in pubs...Everyone was friendly...We laughed poked fun at "another country that shall remain nameless to preserve the integrity of this thread" and had a jolly ole time.
I also enjoyed being able to speak the language....

Good things about England :
English people are extremely tolerant people – when you consider the amount of different ethnic groups there – your average English person is tolerant.
London : fabulous place – easy to get around – plenty to see
(have been there many times)
Bristol : beautiful part of the world, especially the drive from
London to Bristol.
(if you get the chance read Brunel and got to see his
railway and the Box Tunnel).
Bath/Cotswolds : beautiful scenery – very very nice part of the world.
Lancashire/Yorkshire : beautiful scenery.
Victorian Era : England fuelled the Industrial Revolution : the
most powerful empire ever.
The brilliance of the inventors, the sheer
ingenuity of their workforce
and their advocacy of craftsmanship : all
unequalled in my opinion.
Faraday/Brunel : need I say more ?
World War 2 : England (Britain) held out for two years, alone,
against a despotic Nazi
regime.
Eurotunnel : Fantastic engineering feat (with the French).

Cos it's next to Wales (bit of a downer for the Welsh, of course) and Wales has got some of the best natural AND man-made riding in the world.
In England’s green and pleasant land
The summers are so lush, you can smell life it’s self.
The roads are rarely strait
The NHS will care for you for free, a gift you will not appreciate unless you live in a place you have to pay for the gift of health.
The BBC, a name you can trust, a billion short wave radios worldwide can’t be wrong.
Education is free, whilst you’re a kid.
If you can’t find a job, the government will help you out.
If you cant look after yourself, social services will come and help you out
The beer is bloody wonderful
People all have dogs and cats
Eccentric is cool
It must be good, people from every corner of the planet flock to live here.

English accents on men turn me on something terrible...but on women for some reason they make me think of a stern schoolmistress with a birch rod for unruly boys....
