Laughing through the tears

I feel a bit like a fraud writing about the attacks in London.
Everyone knows I'm not happy here. Everyone knows I don't particularly like living in the UK. Everyone knows I can't wait to get away.

And yet, for the moment, this is my HOME. I always said "I love London. Not the people, just the city." It's still true. But in the aftermath of Thursday's attacks I have had to (grudgingly) admit that I feel extremely proud of the Brits. I take my hat off to them. The way to deal with terrorism is how they are doing it - get on with life.

And whilst the tragedy remains, there is still a lot of good ole "British humour" that can help to cope.

Check THIS link to the BBC out and do make the effort to read some of the blogs in their link. They will make you laugh and shake your head, maybe give you goosebumps and scare you but they are SO worth it.

But my personal favorite has got to be THIS. Don't be surprised if you see me wearing one sometime soon ;-)
