Mr. Cavanagh,

Please accept my apologies for toddlintown. The reality over here is that most of us do not see England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales as "European". France is European. Britain has always been sui generis and has always gone her own way. May she always.

Myself, I am repelled by the Brussels government and most of the French "intelligentsia".

Your post first puzzled me. "But Tony is English!!" my mind protested.

Actually, you're right. I do look at England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales as...well, I guess, Britain, and don't make the connection of them to "the continent," that is, Europe.

I've been called on this 1/2 dozen times so far.
