Growing up in Australia...Hi, that is a lovely post. Growing up in Australia a lot of the early influences are all English. Enid Blyton, Thames television, BBC dramas, classic novels. I've always hankered after all things English. I've been lucky enough to visit England twice and it felt like coming 'home' There are very strong ties historically between England and Australia and that creates a big bond.<br />Glad to see the 4711 cologne in that post. I have a bottle too. It is wonderful in humid climates and for headaches.Josephine Tale Peddlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16431330956687490112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-37960293969173022122009-06-11T09:51:00.538+00:002009-06-11T09:51:00.538+00:00Gorgeous post Niki.. and I love your patriotism an...Gorgeous post Niki.. and I love your patriotism and your generosity also to our European neighbours..<br />I am half and half ...

I do think that my British tendancy to understate things or joke about things I take seriously confuses some other bloggers, though.

Just the ones the complain a lot! *grin* I feel partially entitled to say that as I come from European stock - English on my mother's side and German on my father's. As I said in my email you are a gorgeous inspiration and I just LOVE your work and attitude to life. I'm very grateful that you share so diligently. Thank you.

Once the children are old enough (not to be cranky for the 7 hour flight), we WILL return. My oldest boy has already said he wants to attend uni there (and he's never been across the pond... I guess hubby and I have already trained him well). Hubby and I have much British heritage. We've had our genealogy done and I have a couple of knights and assorted other "notables" in my tree. =)<br /><br />Being a Native New Englander, we too, have our share of criticism ... some people still see us as "Yankees" - but much of the teasing is done in jest now. =)Cape Cod Rambling Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02101217926712078715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-22786045755265735502009-06-10T14:27:20.314+00:002009-06-10T14:27:20.314+00:00Hi Niki, love this post.
