A Brit, eh? I had been kind of wondering what "ukexpat" stood for. I guess "Nigel" should have given it away, though.

When I was very young, I had a general thought that Brit. humor was, restrained, refined, very dry wit, in a Dickinson sort of way. Until BENNY HILL and MONTY PYTHON. (The Brits. can dish the lowbrow slapstick with the best of em!.) “A Scratch? Your arms off!” Seriously, Good Neighbors, To the Manor Born, Some of my favorite stuff for serials, when it finally imported here, Love that BBC! (expat? ex patriot? your in the colonies now?

Dear Nigel,
Ops, beg pardon! Comes from that wonderful place in my head, entitled, “Dicks-sha-nar-ee” Never would imply other than, “That there’s some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England.”!
