Wishing all our members from the USA a happy Independence Day and throwing off your colonial overlords. I hope your day goes with a bang!

It usually does in Chicago and Philadelphia.

 

We will not hear about that though!

 

My partner is American so I am sure the fireworks will be coming out!

Thank you Phan, you always remember. My old friend, how are you doing?  :wave: How is your family? 

 

It's really noisy where I am right now. So. Many. Fireworks. Our neighbors had a HUGE barbecue. We went for a bit, but it's hot here and there were a ton of people.  All nice folks, but our house is cool and quiet.  So after dinner, we went home before the explosions started.  

 

When I was a child, we used to sing America The  Beautiful  in school  and even to my young ears back then,  it sounded awful.  But when Ray Charles sings it, it sounds magnificent. 

 

I am terribly worried about my country, but I still love it and feel fortunate to have been born here.  Best wishes from this American to all you good Sheffield folk.  :D
