I am really puzzled as to that growth of feeling we can descibe as self pity and whinging.

This country is marvellous, of course there are problems, nothing perfect but this country is blessed. We live in a feee and democratic society, we do not have secret police breathing down our necks; initiative is encouraged and rewarded, we do not have a mass media boring us to death with what the ruling party thinks is good for us. Please Peachey take a look around, for most people in the UK life is good.

I dunno about 'lived' in a third world country - dunno how long you have to be there to qualify for that accolade

but yes - I have been to one - and yes, they have rubbish transport too
