I hope i don't offend you by saying this but i think it points out an example of something i said earlier. Your signature says you are from 'Up North, UK' well, might i point out that from the impression i get, your location is actually closer to the southern tip of england than the northern tip. There could be two reasons for this little psychological slip that many people in the north of england tend to make. the first is, perhaps by thinking of themselves as 'north', they think of themselves as further form the 'south' than they really are. The second is a little more enfuriating, it scould mean that scotland simply does not count to many english people, or that it is perceived as some small northern county of england, in which case, yorkshire, lancashire et c are both 'Up North, UK'.

I coul change it to 'Up North, England', it would be technically more correct, but it sounds more isolationist. I don't want to cut you celts out like that. Anyway, i'm half irish.

I would never defend my country overseas. If we are being invaded, sure, I'll join. Soil defense is always a worthy reason. As for overseas, the reason is that I would feel I am merely a pawn of the "great enemy", not a patriot warrior of honor.

So where do you think Hitler would be today if people didn't go abroad to help? He might be king of Canada and you may never have been born because your ancestors would have been wiped out. Unless they happen to have had the qualities of the master race that is.
