THE REAL LIST
Here are the real top ten things I love about America -
10. I love the diversity of this country. The blend of cultures means you can get all kinds of everything everywhere you go.
9. I love the fact that the stores don’t all close at 5.30pm, like they did in Scotland.
8. I love living in a country with a great tradition of support and involvement worldwide - military, economic and humanitarian.
7. I love the national anthem.
6. I love baseball and football - can’t deal with basketball or ice hockey - miss cricket!
5. I love being surrounded by people who dream and are unafraid to pursue those dreams.
4. I love the strong Christian influence there is in a country where God is still very much on the agenda - if you think the USA is post-Christian, try living in Europe first and then talk to me again.
3. I love the fact that Americans tend to be givers, with a heart to share all that they enjoy.
2. I love Manhattan at Christmas and Montauk in the summer. I love the fact that this place is so big every state is like a different country.
1. I love Church At The Movies.
0. I that you can arrive on these shores knowing next to no one and within a few years have loads of really good friends - Americans are very open people.
-1. I love Turkey Hill Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup ice cream.
-2. I love that you don’t have to be good at counting to 10 or even counting down from 10 to be accepted.
