Yet another "Urban Myth".
I saw a similar version of this at least 40 years ago in a national newspaper.
It has been updated a bit, but this is just a regurgitation of yesterdays humour.

South -East England, 30 miles from London, Unleaded is £1.00 per litre, and almost the same for Diesel.

Surely "excessive" not "excessing".

Actually, the British Isles, (UK, Great Britain, or whatever term you choose - it makes no difference except to your personal preferences or prejudices) DID choose. Agreed, Cons. P.M. Edward Heath promised a referendum, but never allowed it to happen, and took the UK in in 1973. However, the Government changed, and on 5th June 1975 Harold Wilsons Lab. govt. held a referendum where the question was "Do you think the UK should stay in the European Community (Common Market)?
The result was: Yes 17,378,581 and No 8,470,073.
67% of votes cast, on a 65% turnout were in favour of Britain staying in. OK, that was only 43.55% of the electorate, but that was a bigger proportion of the population than in ANY election since, Local or General.
The ONLY areas of the UK to vote No were the Shetlands, and the Western Isles, both Scottish admin areas. EVERY other admin area of the UK voted in favour of continued membership, and so the government continued the arrangement.
There have been many occasions since 1975 when parties of different colours have promised referenda, but none took place until the United Kingdom Alternative Vote referendum, 2011.
I voted No in 1975. I did not wish to be a "victim" of European administrative systems, but it happened nevertheless. So I accepted it, and got on with life. But although I, like everyone who is born within the British Isles AM a European, as Nelson Mandela is an African, I declare my NATIONALITY as British.
Perhaps some of the UK born people, with UK ancestry and so on, who are arguing that they are not European are quite young and don't remember 1975, or quite poor at geography and have never heard of the concept of Continents, or maybe have some deep rooted psychological need to attempt to bury their heads in the sand, but facts are facts, and they are Europeans - sub group British, whether they like it or not. I just think they should get out more to see the world, and they may find that they like it.

Anyway chaps, time for me to pop off for some tea and tiffin, maybe a cucumber sandwich or two, and some other English cuisine, that's been copied from the outposts of the Empire, and enshrined in the British way of life.
Pip Pip.

I was certainly smiling, as I always do when I think of the USA. My point was simply that if you lot (and I probably mean Microsoft) wish to call the computers dictionary something then call it what it IS - AMERICAN - NOT English.
You can then argue among yourselves for as long as you want as to whether its American, or whether Shawnee or Sioux or Cherokee are really the American language, but at least our television, and magazines and the internet will be free of incorrect spellings, and so that our children will learn how to write and speak properly, and not with this pervasive corruption that is the stuff forced on us at the moment.
And as for those who live in the UK (OH..YET ANOTHER ARGUEMENT HERE FOLKS...)if you don't live in the European continent, then make a choice from Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, North America, and South America. Where do you THINK you live, or where do you think that Britain is, on the map?
The French don't reckon Antarctica exists.
The Americans don't sub-divide North and South America, saying it' all America, which probably annoys the South American countries just a bit, and Scientists have a completely different system:
Asia, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, North America, Central America and the Carribean,South America, Africa, Australia and Oceania.
But what's wrong with talking about Rugby Football? You guys over there have that strange game where people dress in body armour just to throw a ball about, where we only have gumshields to protect us from our opponents. I suppose your game might evolve into something decent one day?

Quite correct! In fact, not because I disagree with their stance on Europe, but because of all the extreme right wing/fascist connections that SOME of their supporters have.
I voted against Britain joining the Common Market in the 1970s, and have always felt that it was a wrong move, but things cannot be undone without enormous damage and cost now. So I think the better course of action is to try to change the system from within.
I actually have enormous sympathy with some of the emotions expressed by previous writers here, such as their assertions of "Cornishman" or "English", to name but two, and I have often - and probably will again - declared on forms that I am English, (usually after we have beaten the Welsh or Scots at rugby or something similarly silly) (.....a whole new line of abuse and insult develops from here). But (never begin a sentence with "but"... I just found myself so amused and generally intrigued by the daft dialogue taking place that I thought I would put in my two-pennorth to see if anyone had a logical response. As they haven't, it rather proves my point, that it's all a lot of hot air. The reason the world and his wife want to come here is that we have probably the best and fairest system in the world when it comes to dealing with distressed and underprivileged and needy people, but that system has been completely over-ruled and ruined by the unelected overpaid unrepresentative people in Brussels who now run all of our lives, wherever we are in Europe. They don't want to come to Britain because it's not in Europe, they want to come to Britain because it IS.
Anyway... on to the matter of rugby football...

No chip on my shoulder - but your railing against me suggests that you have one. Trying to impress with your "worldliness", when you plainly have not properly read my missive.
Wouldnt it be more worthwhile to have a go at the countless idiots who write software that gives us British Europeans an option of English language, and then spells everything in Yank, with no regard to correct spelling at all. There is no such thing as "American English", so pick that up as a cause celebre, and stop whinging on about a system that we, the British (and English too actually) invented, which classified the continents and sub-continents. We made the rules, so let's play by them.
And I say further - what a load of prehistoric creatures you sound. For heavens sake - get a life all of you.

What a lot of sad and insular xenophobes you are! Maybe the result of having never been out of your little villages.
The British Isles are part of Europe, just as Japan and Sri Lanka (for the fossils amongst you it used to be called Ceylon) are part of Asia. And just as Canada is classified as part of North America.
Being a European doesn't mean that you are not British, English, Scots, Irish, Welsh,Cornish or anything else - it's a geographical region not a nationality.
Your attitudes are just the sorts that caused Britain, the English, Welsh, Scottish, Irish, Cornish to be despised during the days of "the Empire". The belief that Britain was somehow superior and above all those bloody foreigners made us hated around the world. Everyone wanted to have their independence from us. We became alienated because of the "Alf Garnett" type bigotry that you idiots are now expressing.
Of course you are European, because that's where you come from/live on the surface of the planet. And it's great to have pride in your localism, County or Country, and the two go together.
If you persist with your attitudes you will become endangered species, and probably find yourselves placed in a zoo.
Maybe the best thing.

You have hit the nail - buy a t-mount on the internet, and off you go. Its really simple. Enjoy.

Doesn't the Sony do Slo-Mo, for example one frame every 10 seconds, or something like that, so that the usual speed is increased by perhaps 250 times on playback? If it does, you may be able to set it up and just leave it on a tripod to do it's own thing while you have a sleep!

Maybe time-lapse?
