After a 3 long weeks of vacation, without the internet or telly, now back to reality and it sucks to be back! I will post after some of my photos later in the week. Sunny beaches in Brazil, beautiful people and loads of caipirinhas....

Now, please, correct me if I read the headlines wrong! I think the U.S is the biggest threat to world peace. I have endured endless search and had to argue with an agent from Delta Airlines that my deodorant was not a threat since it was neither liquid nor gel. Indeed it would be a terrorist act to allow me to board the plane for 13 long hours without it! mrgreen


This country is really a joke when it comes to figuring out who is to blame for the world's instability today.

Sounds like a scared reaction to the public opinion of the UK right now, which is to begin distancing itself from the US, especially with regard to Iraq.

Sadly for the US publications making these statements, it is not just Moslem groups that are calling for this so I guess it would be a 'punishment' for the rebelling Brits if it was made harder for them to come out to visit Disneyworld or friends/family like us.

Classic example of the American right's aversion to free expression, something that used to be popular here once but has now been replaced with obligatory patriotism.

I think letting them into Disneyworld is punishment enough.

Apparently, they pay to come over and visit but I take your point :smile:
