Yesterday I saw a report that High School proms were getting very popular in the UK, because of the show Glee. You don't not have them there?

Stretch limos, spray tans and the £500 dresses: The unstoppable (and ludicrously expensive) rise of the high school prom

Sadly yes we have now adopted the phenomenon that is the school prom - a bit like we 'adopted' trick or treating at Halloween. It's not so much to do with Glee but more to do with long-standing American cultural hegemony and kids wanting what they see in the movies/telly...the Prom as you lot know it has become more popular here over the last few years. We have always had an end of school celebrations it's just now they're called a Prom and parents have to pay out a lot more than they ever did for 'outfits' and transport.

Course some Brits love country and western music...Not so sure I'd call it 'popular' but there are plenty of folks who like it.

I was looking up house prices in England the other day. I looked up prices on the street my grandparents lived on and where I grew up. I was shocked that a 2 bedroom former council flat in the same block as theirs is going for almost 200,000 pounds. When the council first started selling them off in the mid 90s they offered to sell it to my grandparents for 9,000 pounds! My grandfather refused to buy it.

Depends on the context but, generally, it's not something you would admit to liking in public over here (unless you live in South West England) ....

In practice, many of us love Johnny Cash and Kris Kristofferson etc (even Willie Nelson) but there's a limit and, generally, any interest in the genre is less than it is across the pond.

Depends on who you ask. I personally have no interest at all in the Royal Family. But I've got some pals who are just MAD about them.

I did almost buy a reproduction of her engagement ring though. It was very pretty.
