The best country in the world.

they said the fashion is also from 20 years ago

I'm still wearing the same style that i wore in the 90s, I'd fit right in!

 

[durhamplumber]

have lived in two other countries,

Which two?

Which two?

Australia & Zimbabwe

 

[Brigadier]

I'd certainly like to live somewhere a bit sunnier and warmer. I can see the appeal of the South of France!

I loved the Dordogne, food, scenery, atmos, etc, but boy can it get crushingly hot (even for me who likes good weather).

 

[sodthisforfun]

Yes...heard that...Starsky and Hutch is still No 1 programme

Try 40+ years ago for S & H!

Everything comes back around, so now and then you're right trendy!

To all those who have claimed in recent discussions that Britain is the above, please state what, in your opinion, makes it so.

Also, are you thinking of The United Kingdom or just England?

Plumbing / heating trade

I certainly enjoyed that hot summer of 2018.

How great is it to have week after week of warm, dry weather. Being able to plan a barbeque and be confident it wont get rained off.

It's one of the reasons a good percentage of brits never settle in AUS or NZ, most cited is they miss friends and family, second is it's culturally boring.

Australia & Zimbabwe

Both sound like hell on earth to me, but horses for courses.

 

[Bodd]

little in the way of wildlife to cause harm (wasps and adders are about as bad as it gets)
(now preparing to be shot down in flames!)

I agree Aus was a bit of a cultural wasteland but living in Sydney after growing up in rural town in NW UK was an eye opener, murder and car theft were commonplace, too hot in summer, very pleasant otherwise, Zim was a good experience, ten years after independence things were sort of ok, good climate as we were at high altitude, malaria free, shopping was easy some days there was butter some days not, and of course the wildlife takes some beating

Britain, Great Britain, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Eire, Ulster, United Kingdom (but don't say UK - that's as bad as "Xmas"), Westmorland, Pembrokeshire, Isles of Scilly, Anglesey...I'm thinking of all of them!!!

WE are the greatest and there are thousands of reasons why.

 

[Munroast]

only bad thing I see about Britain is, too many people and too little wildlife.

can think of about 16,141,241 who might want to head off to greener pastures, leave a bit of elbow room for the rest of us.

Ah, I think that is more what I had in mind when I asked the question.

Please elaborate.
