a long time ago, an 18 year old girl dreamt of working and living in UK, although she had never been there except for photos and TV. she researched ways to get over there to work or study - but she had no money for studies, and immigration laws then didn't allow work permit to a young girl without a professional degree. opportunity came when an englishman proposed, but there was no chemistry, no attraction for her - you see, at 18, her priority was still Love! over ambition.
she fell in love with another englishman, but she never did get a chance to realise her dream, because he dumped her.
and so, UK continued to be this charming, mystical, country that seemed to be so out of reach. her first trip to UK at 28 realised all the images she had in her mind, and UK was exactly what she envisaged it to be - magical, mystical.... and still is to her..

Aww... sweet!
The UK I remember when you were 28 years old is still magical to me. It's not the same now :( it's been spoilt by the love of cheap celebrity and the lower classes.
nothing remains the same, but there will always be spots that wl always b magical..n so we look and find it..
