hi Diana,

Rupert Brook was a famous English poet who lived in the Cambridge area.  the poem 'The Soldier' contained the lines that I referred to!

Thankyou for all the help. I worked in Market Harborough and am being warmly beckoned to this area by the long lost friends who are all a bit fed up of the news at the moment. Not that it's any better here but the UK press do seem to enjoy frenzied reporting. Australia is a bit more 'she'll be right mate'.

Anyway, we are spoilt for choice and I'm glad England is small because wherever we go, we're only a car drive away to some beautiful scenery. I still love my old childhood home of the Lake District but take it from me, it is a bit isolated and removed from the big smoke. I nearly didn't survive the culture shock of moving to Northamptonshire. Yet, to be where the action is, you do need to base business in a busier location.

The photos on this web site are just lovely, I really appreciate being able to show my husband some of the best parts of the UK. Thankyou to all who have submitted images.
