Now I'm living in the US, the only thing I miss about the UK is the NHS!
Having to pay a fortune for medical treatment here sucks!
Oh... and I love old-fashioned English country pubs!!!

LOL HP, I do remember, another thing I miss is forcing you into the kitchen to make pate every week God, I miss your pate!
Remember when I made my brother bring over a joint of pork so I could have the crackling and when it came to cooking it you were ill and couldn't eat it LOL!
More for me
