I should just like to say that on the three occasions I have visited the United States in the last few years I have found the people there kind, hospitable and generous, so much so that it is difficult to actually pay for anything.

As to politics what does it matter beside the private joys of family and friends? It is amazing, looking back, how things that seemed very important at the time turned out to be not important at all. Doubtless a Trump Presidency, should it come to pass, would not result in the collpase of the world order. Likewise the collapse of the EU would be a mere blip. Fifty years from now it will be gone like last year's snows. The young people will never have heard of it, as today's young, and most Americans I am sure, have never heard of the SDLP (the what?) or Mrs Shirley Williams.

Meanwhile, Jayne, lighten up. It truly doesn't matter what we say.If we lived in many countries of the world it would, because we would be arrested
