Did you get to see Bowie IS the first time round? I’m flying home to see it next month, oh and for My Mums 80th 😂 guess where we’ll be going for her birthday? Don’t think I could live there again, but I do love London ❤️ it’s where my heart is

I have never lived anywhere that wasn't a swampy sauna during the summer, so I don't willingly walk a lot during those months. But, the trade off is the natural fresh water springs in every direction....

Come home! There's even a restaurant here all about your dad. (Though it's not as cool as it used to be in its old building, sadly.) You'd certainly be safer here than in the US right now.

My wife is a Londoner and she's excited about going back this weekend. She lived there her entire life but she still gets giddy about going back even though she knows it inside out. I'm excited about going too, but I think that's more to do with the ALIEN Earth stand at the history museum.

I doubt it. Not yet. The first worries will be when the courts start testing the viability of Trump pulling birthright citizenship from American citizens. Then a whole new chaos rears its head.

Although I greatly enjoyed living in Europe (and would again) I'd rather die destroying fascism here than flee and leave others to suffer a fate I escaped. That said I can't blame those who do choose to leave.

I’m Canadian and I always look at it the other way around. $1 CAD is currently $0.72 USD, and it’s been around there with the occasional small jump for a very long time.
