As you can probably imagine, it's difficult to come up with a new topic every week to keep the site fresh. Do you have any ideas you care to share with me? I would like to know what kind of topics you would like to see. Or just share an experience or funny story that has to do with England, and I may include it in a future article.

Crazy as it may sound <img src="/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I know TONS of people over here in America are just nuts over that British accent! Have you thought about doing an article on what makes the accent so sexy? (I'm thinking Jude Law here) <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'd love to see some articles about some of the Celtic cultures of England: Welsh, Cornish, etc. My family is Welsh, so I have a soft spot for that culture.

I'd personally love to see any archival links as I am doing the genealogy site. Also, my ancestors were the Luttrells from Somerset, England that lived in Dunster Castle. Would love to know more about the Castle and castles in general. Maybe give a little history on the class system they had in the early years... Just a thought.

British vs American language, i.e. slang
I mean, I'm the only person I know who could hear someone talk about knocking someone up to ask if they've got a brolly in their boot and know what was happening.
And I can tell my biscuits, from my chips and my crisps too....hehehehe

My first article was about British slang, but as it's more extensive than my first article covered, I can always make it into a series. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Okay. Well, there's two people for language, so I guess I can add a part 2 to my very first article and perhaps make it a series!

Hmmmm. Yeah, I think the British accent is pretty sexy too. Maybe an article like this would involve getting some input from readers. I was also thinking of doing an article about who makes the best Mr. Darcy - Colin Firth or Matthew McFayden.
