Expat Californian now living in rural Illinois. Rediscovering photography after 30 years, don't understand digital so...technically I'm a dinosaur living in the land of analog.
 
Not the current ones I hope.

This is a fantasy distressingly often entertained by the English. It's a bit odd when you consider that England is surrounded by countries that mostly do think of themselves as part of Europe: Cornwall, Wales, Ireland, Isle of Man, Scotland, Channel Islands...

You can now rely on at least one Englishman spluttering that Cornwall isn't a country, mostly because they won the last Cornish-English war in 1549 -- http://www.cornwallinformation.co.uk/news/the-anglo-cornish-war-of-june-august-1549/ Nor were the English above a few massacres, verging on genocide.

On re-reading the information in the link given above, I note that the English used European mercenaries. So much for their claims not to be part of Europe!

Cheers,
