Culture Schmulture

This is sort of for deborahmm, but I'm sure other people would find it interesting too. It's an article from The Sunday Times, looking at immigration, the East End and British culture - is there such a thing as 'a real cockney'? How English are our traditions really? I found this fascinating and encouraging!

I should probably add that Darcy and I lived in the East End for 3 years (in Stepney Green, Limehouse and Stratford), and enjoyed it very much! :)

Well, thanks for the hugs... sorry I've been so slow. ::hugs you back::

And re. the other thing, we'll just have to cross our fingers and pray or something. I'm finding this very amusing btw - super sekkrit messages are fun! :)

Could come up with all sorts of things: super-sekrit wink; super-sekrit nudge; super-sekrit flirt; super-sekrit nod etc etc :)
