Subject: RE: 'English Country Dances', Please

" "Do you regret that immigration wasn't stopped or limited a few years ago?"...yes, Phil, frankly I wish it had occurred before I was born, such that I'd been brought up here, and all the mass emigration from, and immigration to, England of late had not occurred.
