for looking over the Entry
Thanks for the suggestions and so forth, I've sorted all those out, I actually like the sound of Algeria better too, it gives the connotations of a place so far distant from London as New Zealand is from Australia
I was toing and froing with 'was' and 'were; after the Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings trilogy for so long as I thought, now hang on, there's three films, not just one...It reads better 'were', but is it actually grammatically correct? I know it is, but it did confuse me
Thanks again

Just a few tiny changes and this will be ready for update, I think.
New Zealand is situated the same distance eastwards from Australia as Algeria is from London
-- remove the word "eastwards" here; Algeria is more or less South from London so the analogy is not exact.
Not able to pronouce --> Not able to pronounce
the Kiwis then liked the French slightly less than they did before -- it may be just me, but I'd say "than they had before"
and Bournville Cocoa there are hundreds of recipes -- add a comma after Cocoa

Happiness is contagious!
I'm happy it's updated, I'm happy the extra hour means nice warm afternoons in the sun - ahh. It's a good life.

Oh, just in passing really -
Did we ever get any joy in finding out if Eck could be reinstated as a Writer, even though they're don't appear to be on the DNA hub anymore?
Just curious is all

We never got a reply on poor Eck.
