Hi folks, coffee ready? Thanks,
you are right the feeling in Europe is rather different,unfortunatly the press here only focus on illigal people arriving here and then living of our benefits system, free housing, free medical care, not getting a job etc,they very rarely talk about genuine refugees who come here to avoid persecution.So the innocent get a bad name due to the bad behaviour of the others.
After July 7th bombs we have had much bad feeling.I was brought up in London and have to admit that when I was a child it was unusual to see a foreigner but now London is very multicultural.
The crazy thing is Billy still has an American passport, having lived here for 35 years, we thought it might be a good idea for him to apply for British citizenship as well, when we saw the form to fill in, nearly as big as the bible, I took umbridge and said do not bother!
I really think as he has a business here and pays his taxes, has never claimed a penny from the state he should be fast tracked!
It is funny when we go back to the USA the immigration guys at the airport are very suspicious, like... how long are you staying?Why are you here? Billy no mates???
Back to work, thanks for the chat ,Wendy
