Robin3 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 England is still (despite what some on SF think) a liberal, tolerant society, not hidebound by too many regulations, where one can get on both in and with life... Thank fully that is very much the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
