British

A number of People on PP are from Britain

If you want to know more about British plants or about being a librarian in Britain, then take a look at indexer 's posts. He has written about a number of wild flowers growing in Britain, for instance soapwort which is a plant historically used for producing a kind of soap used in the woollen industry and one on corn spurry which was also known as pickpurse - can you guess why? He has also written about dinosaurs .

Rufuszen writes about Britain and especially London and various interesting sights you can see there. For instance, the preacher who was hanged for forgery ! He has also written about Dickens' London, for instance in the bleeding heart .

There is also HappyLady who writes on spiritual matters and also family history and on a bit of entertainment trivia - did you know about nursing injured budgies from magic acts?

Anyone Else?

Who else should I write about?

What about YOUR area?

Is there anyone in your area you could write about? It doesn't have to be geographical. It could be an interest area.

Thanks for the plug, and also the hints! I've haven't been around long enough to know who's who, but I'm sure there are planty of Brits here somewhere!

Incidentally, on another site I tried persuading an American writer NOT to use an image of Tower Bridge to illustrate "London Bridge is Falling down", but to no avail!

LOL, hopefully this Tower Bridge is the one made of bricks and stone that will last for "ages long"

I like the writers from the UK. I can even "speak" your language and understand much of your humour! emoticon :winking:

I am told I still of some relatives somewhere in Wales. Not sure of the name. My ancestry is actually British, Scottish, Welsh with a little German.
I like reading all the articles about the 'Motherland'.

Thank you. I really need to write more often, but I do enjoy the researching bit especially when it involves a visit to a pub to confirm facts. Well, that's what I say!

I've been collecting bits 'n bobs for an article on London Bridge. Still a couple of piccies short yet

And you even spelled 'humour' properly...lol

MegL wrote on January 7, 2016, 10:38 AM

Welcome back. Haven't seen you on here for a while?

Ellis wrote on January 7, 2016, 10:47 AM

Mostly just reading nowadays with an odd comment here and there...lets face it, most of my comments are odd...lol

MegL wrote on January 7, 2016, 1:09 PM

But very readable and often funny! LOL

MegL wrote on January 7, 2016, 1:10 PM

My brothers and sister would be with you on that one!

I know I will be out-voted, but still I can proudly claim that I am from India!!!!! The Culture Country!!!!! I will surely write about my country!

Rufuszen wrote on January 7, 2016, 2:48 PM

Well, I do like to drag people along with me, but they need to walk fast!

WordChazer wrote on January 7, 2016, 2:54 PM

Anything is better when it involves a visit to a pub. A proper old fashioned pub, not one of these infernal 'gastropubs', please.

Rufuszen wrote on January 7, 2016, 2:57 PM

Totally agree. Can't stand plastic pubs that can't look after the ale

WordChazer wrote on January 7, 2016, 4:32 PM

No problem Rufuszen . I may limp, but the faster I limp, the less you see it.

MegL wrote on January 7, 2016, 4:52 PM

Certainly, always happy to read about other places.

WordChazer wrote on January 7, 2016, 4:52 PM

Looking forward to it. You have a vibrant and wonderful culture, cuisine and lifestyle all on your own doorstep.

I have enjoyed Indexer and Rufuszen 's articles. From them I have learned a lot about the U.K. and also from your posts MegL .

An interesting way to get all 'British' together. If you want to know who is good in what here you need to have a look at their posts categorywise.

I love the posts of Ellis , who writes very funny parodies, informative nature posts, and incredibly moving poetry. He's multi-talented!

MegL wrote on January 9, 2016, 3:26 AM

Very true. Always look forward to his posts.
