Goodbye Britain

With bitter tears in my eyes and a loving sweet kiss

              Dear Albion I say goodbye, Thy presence I will miss!*

It surprised me as well, especially when they had announced earlier that the IN was leading 52 to 48. Thank you my friend, Anne-Lise for your kind visit and comment!
