I am usually very patriotic. Love our green and pleasant land, the culture, the quirkiness, the British people (ahem well selectively chosen).
I woke up this morning looked out of the window at the rain and the grey sky, came downstairs to a letter from our bank about being overdrawn (we are really struggling), another letter about declaring our income in my tax return because of child benefit changes, and a ridiculous bill from Scottish power for electricity. Turned on tv to hear a load of negatives with the English defence league and anti terror stuff and just thought well bugger me, I've bloody had enough.
Is if better anywhere else? Can I pack our bags and head off for a life of sunny days, more bang for our hard earned buck and an all together better quality of life for a young family? I'm serious - I hear New Zealand is good..... ;)
Sorry, I'm proud to British but I'm not enjoying Britain that much right now!
