Welcome to Across The Pond!

Do you ever find yourself suddenly walking silly walks or humming a certain Lumberjack tune? Do you scurry to the kitchen at noon for ladyfingers and herbal tea? Do you read literature from or about Tudor or Regency periods? Are you constantly flipping to BBC America to check for new episodes of Dr. Who, Robin Hood, or MI-5? Did you love Braveheart, Pride and Prejudice, or the Harry Potter movies? Do you ever suddenly find yourself speaking in a British accent using the words "bloke" or "codswallop" from time to time? Or maybe you just feel you were born in the wrong country? This group was made for anyone who feels a special connection to the geography, history, culture, and traditions of the U.K. Discussions are open to everyone and can be about anything from English literature, your favourite Beatle, or how you spent your summer vacation touring famous castles. Whether the discussions are serious and thoughful or silly and playful, have fun! *For any Shelfarian who has stumbled upon this group out of curiosity, please feel free to join us (especially you Brit's!)!* « less
