    I have learnt to love UK because I can eat pork there.
    I am happy because I am healthy.
    (Surely I can move to "Respected" status now! hehehehe
    At last you didnt say something against your wife

    I love this country because.....

    I am given opportunity to improve myself ( attending trainings & currently doin online computing course)

    Everyone has food on the table

    Transport is good, dont have to wait for the bus to be full; not much traffic

    Drivers are well disciplined, I guess they dont want to earn points in their license

    there are a lot of things that i love in this country such as:

    - the nice greenery and fresh air which is the first thing that i've noticed
    - people are well disciplined when driving on roads, thus there's no traffic
    - the way employers treat applicants & employees, there's no discrimination in terms of age, sex, appearance, race & religion
    - the way shops/stores implements customer service/ customer satisfaction
    - the internet speed
    - the food, too many to mention,

    and many many more....
    with a heart full of love, you will express your highest potential while also fulfilling your soul's deepest purpose:
    TO LOVE AND BE LOVED!

    yes, you'll be shocked with its internet speed also...

    the first time i used my hubby's pc, what made me shocked was when i tried typing a specific website & clicked enter & then when i looked up at the monitor, the website has opened already, I'M SOOOOOO AMAZED WITH IT!!!

    I'm sure you will notice it also once you're here....

    I used PLDT SMallbiz at my shop before and it was really fast. But it cost 7 times higher than residential broadband. We have some fast broadband but really expensive. It's only use for business like.

    Think its normal language everywhere isnt it?
    I know down here in sunny suffolk we always swear, unless we have the kids in the car of course......
    In fact the place i`ve heard the least amount of road rage type things is when I used to be a delivery driver and went to London every day.
    Its like the norm there so no-one bothers to get upset.
