+Simply Paul Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland then. Could also be the Isle of Man, but I think being a UFO is still illegal there. Can't be the Channel Islands as they're not a part of the UK, they're a crown protectorate.... P.S. Spoke to Anna on the phone this morning - she'd got the final exam of her philosophy degree on Thursday... Link to comment
