As of today I've been back in the UK now just over 3 months and I'm still reeling from reverse culture shock. I'm still coming to grips with how much has and hasn't changed since I was last here during a brief visit back in 2009, and even more so when I last lived here in 2006. The Tories are back in power, the country is in recession and there is a royal wedding on the horizon. If I didn't know any better I'd think I had traveled back in time to Britain in the 80s. If it only were that simple.
