Haha thanks for saying I can right :) (see what I did there?). I have not had much confidence with my writing of late but hopefully with encouraging posts like this one I will get it back.
Sleeping too much is overrated because there is less time to eat sandwiches and look at baby polar bear GIFs!
I hope that one day we do get independence but I think these days it's more about joining them than beating them. Not joining them as in joining a union with them, but joining them in being an equal self sufficient nation that has the power to make decisions that affect the people that live in it. Beating them in a referendum sure would be lovely, mind you. I think the over 70s might be the archers in this case.
I'll have a look at that post and see about signing up for the minnow support project! Thanks again :)
