Dear England
 
Dear England blog is a letter from America to England. Are we different? Are we the same? Are we two nations divided, or divided by a common language?
 
Here my experience and observations as a British ex-pat lost in America are mingled with the less reported transatlantic news. England, meet America!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
An electrical storm on the Yorkshire Moors, North England
 
 
 
 
If England was what England seems,
    An’ not the England of our dreams,
But only putty, brass, an’ paint,
    ’Ow quick we’d drop ’er! But she ain’t!
 
Not to be confused with:
 
 
...and remember the words of Winston Churchill:
 
Never, never, never, quit.
