What a great topic, I can't believe I missed it! LOL!  Well, it's never too late for an American to add her to cents worth! LOL!

I always think of a nice hot cup of good tea, Harrods (I love that place!), the Royal Family simply because we don't have one here and I am curious about them, Robson Green (hubba, hubba) LOL!, the history of England comes to mind.

Reading through the postings I see that England suffers the same fate as Australia. It is so hard not to be racist when I think of what I had to go through to get to Aus. all those years ago, and how I worked my butt off to get where I am today. Governments have gone overboard in accomodating so called refugees from war torn countries and seem to go out of their way to please them.I do believe lots of them came for a free ride and take all but give nothing. The things that made our countries great are saddly slipping away, things like moral standards, pride, justice and most of all, mateship. A country singer, Australian,John Williamson, sums it up for us in his song True Blue.

I fear that things will never be the way it was when we were young, so hang on to your memories and get lost in the pages of POE.  I do.

For those of you who have not heard True Blue"-

Hey True Blue, don't say you've gone
Say you've knocked off for a smoko
And you'll be back la-ater on
Hey True Blue, Hey True Blue

Give it to me straight, face to face
Are you really disappearing
Just another dy-ying race
Hey True Blue

True Blue, is it me and you
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a co-ockatoo
Is it standin' by your mate when he's in a fight
Or just Vegemi-ite
True-ue-ue Blue, I'm a-asking you

Hey True Blue, can you bear the load
Will you tie it up with wire
Just to keep the show on the road
Hey True Blue
Hey True Blue, now be Fair Dinkum

Is your heart still there
If they sell us out like sponge cake
Do you rea-eally care
Hey True Blue

True Blue, is it me and you
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a co-ockatoo
Is it standin' by your mate when she's in a fight
Or just Vegemi-ite
True-ue-ue Blue, I'm a-asking you...

True Blue, is it me and you
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a co-ockatoo
Is it standin' by your mate when he's in a fi-ight
Or just Vegemi-ite
True-ue-ue Blue, True-ue-ue Blue
