You know what is ffffffrustating interesting about America is how unnnnfnn-interested they are in the recent Brexit vote. Americans still think of Europe as somewhat of a Louis XVI Disney movie. No offence. I/we love Louis and Dizy!

It took Andrew almost 3 fff years to get his UK citizenship. No queue jumping. All legit. By that time he was totally beleaguered and couldn't apply for any jobs in Europe. Full circle. Now. I don't know what else to say about all that. Funny/horrid/despicable. Life. That perhaps the same would/world now.

When I wrote for The European in the ‘90’s I received nil expenses: slept on floors, trains. ..Rarely, very rarely slept on or against any humans ! They trusted me and one hopes the trust was reciprocated.

Crossed the Berlin Wall to watch Die Volksbühne perform Bulgakov‘s The Master and Margarita (and gave my friends tickets to a so-called sold out Communist house. Favors must be…I …should have just given the tickets to the desperate East German thesps who begged me for a ticket. Fool me…

Where is all this going? Well, we all (well maybe not quite…) want to be part of THAT world. Is it now a bigger world? Did/does/ doesn’t now make a bigger world for the U.K..? Like the United Nations. The European Union is a fantastic idea that came to fruition. But did it ever offer, in reality, that much to anyone. Significantly. Especially the U.K. ? Occasionally. The facts speak for themselves. I ain't sittin' on a fence here. I totally applaud Cameron's bravely in screwing his colours to a sticking place...Yet: was the idea – as great as it is/was greater than the sum of its parts?

Prime Minister David Cameron was very brave to leave a/that decision to democracy. VERY! Wasn’t it a famous Brit PM who spoke a great spake re: democrats….! Democracy..the worse of....
President Obama almost got not elected! Perhaps that will be true for…..

Feel sad that with all the technology possible in one human hand the world has not yet got bigger but significantly decreased in stature! All the great photographs that could be but yet never are. Walter Benjamin. Umberto Eco. Please don't rise from heaven or the grave to be both disappointed and conformed in your brave distopia...
