"The best of our English wisdom, and our clearest visions of the invisible, are enshrined in our poetry. Our best poetry is generally serious, moral, and often definitely religious in its aim".
William Inge Dean of St. Paul's 1911-1934
I am concerned that England as a nation is fast disappearing, our nationality subsumed in "Britishness", while Britishness itself is disappearing into the European Union. I am interested in "Englishness" as it used to be - not nationalistic, but patriotic, without making too much of a fuss about it. We are English and should be proud of it.
