Can I second both Roxanne and Brian's comments? Also say thank you to Andy--that made my day! Anything that knocks the French and the Bush Brigade in the same breath is alright by me! I'll probably be removed for racist comments now.... |

Can I just say that I found America's retort to be just as funny. Didn't try to read between the lines or anything... |

To Rosemary on the Island: I am not sure exactly what you are referring to regarding qualifying the city location but I thought I would add that there are many States that have towns or cities named Paris or London. Lots of States have cities and towns named Dublin also. From Rosemary in the States |

ANDREA WHERE DID YOU GET THE REPLY FROM. I WOULD LIKE TO REPLY TO IT AND NOT UPSET YOU. TO START WITH IT SHOULD BE UK AND SOUTHERN IRELAND NOT NORTHERN. THE UK DONT HAVE A FOOTBALL TEAM IN THE OLYMPICS., AS WE ALL PLAY FOR SEPERATE COUNTRIES .SO YOU WOULD COME FOURTH. IF WE DID YOU WOULD COME 8TH. AS FOR COOKING WE HAVE WORLD RENOUND CHEFS, YOU HAVE RONALD MACDONALD, THE COLONEL, AND THE MAN WHO SELLS HOTDOGS IN CENTRAL PARK. WE DO NOT APOLOGISE FOR TELETUBIES, BECAUSE WE HAVE HEARD ITS A FAVOURITE OF GEORGE BUSH. IT IS AIMED AT PRESCHOOL CHILDREN, AND THEY BELIEVE IN FICTION. THEN AGAIN SO DO AMERICANS THEY BELIEVE IN A MAGIC BULLET. JUST LIKE THEY BELIEVE THEY WON WWII ALONE. BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT THEY CAN'T DO IT ALONE LOOK AT IRAQ. YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS OUR SOLDIERS. AS FOR ELTON JOHN HE SONG CANDLE IN THE WIND AS RESPECT FOR A DEAR FRIEND TO HIMSELF AND OUR COUNTRY. MADONNA COULDN'T STAND YOUR COUNTRY SHE MARRIED AN ENGLISHMAN AND LIVES HERE NOW. JUST TO FINISH OFF THE BEST THING TO COME OUT OF AMERICA IS THE PLANE HOME. SUE |

YES - Please learn the difference to the Canadian and American accent! A Canadian can be identified by the phrase "eh" after most sentences! On my visits back home to England with my now Canadian accent, people automaticly think that I am an American. I was in a pub with my Nan, when the bartender asked me where I was from. I answered "Liverpool" turned around and walked away! Once people know that you are from Canada the "Welcome" mat is put out. |

Postie, We here in the States are asking the same questions and many others. Our election process is still a mystery to many voters. There is the popular vote and the electorial vote. It's the latter that determins the winner. Most of us don't understand why or how but it just does. Rose |
