Enjoy it gentlemen! I’ve always wanted to participate in a 4th of July celebration, there’s something so inspiring about the fight for independence and how deeply engrained it is in the collective culture of many Americans.
Have a beer for me!

Best wishes to my American cousins. "the special relationship" between the UK and US has endured through the years and has proved to be important at certain points in history.

That's right. A comedian over here called Al Murray added a bit to that quote:smudgersmissingleg:

"the UK and America are divided by a common language.... and a fucking great ocean, thank Christ"
BTW, he is a comedian and he's just joking. I'm sure he's like me and loves America and it's culture. I'm a massive fan of American movies, tv, music, literature and even wrestling.

Love locals setting off fireworks, this a couple streets over from me, drive over, had the top down and took in a great display, an hour of this.
Great movie! Wish I could get a DVD of the original, as all they sell now is the director's cut which is much longer (mostly songs).
Funny how few movies Hollywood has made on the revolutionary period (can't imagine why).
But thank God The Patriot got made...great movie IMO.
This scene has Mel's immortal line about "trading one tyrant 3000 miles away for 3000 tyrants one mile away".
