If you can keep your head when all about you

Like the Weather Thread are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when the WT doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make sunshine of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-a-tent,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To drag your rucksack to site long after energy has gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,

if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - NFR NFC, my son!

I'm now in the same time zone as the rest of you! Fell asleep before we even took off and woke up as we were landing. Perfect.

now remembering things I seem to have repressed: the money feels like Monopoly money after using euros for so long, and my English gets very weird.

Haha thank you :)

I don't know, I usually mimic accents (not on purpose) but it sort of sounds like I'm trying to be British and Australian at the same time? Lol.

How does your English get weird?

It's immaculate in the written word!

Anyhoooo...welcome back to blighty!!!!!!

One step closer to GF!!!!!!

Although writing to persons unknown

is uncomfortable

like tube socks in too tight trainers

and as unfamiliar

as sliding into someone else's car to drive

(the seat sloped back too far and

too close to the steering wheel)

sometimes

there's a link

(two-baked-bean-cans-tied-together-with-knotted-string)

and it spans oceans

like the NFR NFC thread.
