    How does traveling to the U.S. make living in Canada unpleasant?

    Seems like there's plenty of sheep in Canada as well....

    I see what you did there.

    It’s hard to blame you. MAGA is making America ugly again. I’m about to up sticks and return to Europe for retirement.

    No, doesn't help. I am from the 'home counties' so don't have an accent! I say 'barth' and 'graass'. :)

    My parents were both from London, though, so I drop my 'H's; like 'ope' and 'otel'. It's also bloody 'ot' today! :wink:
