'Never has a nation so small inspired so much in another'




Yesterday I braved the rain and the crowds,
and headed into College Green to see OBAMA speak!
We had to queue for about 3 hours to get a good(ish) spot but it was worth it.
And I got frisked by Secret Service, amazing!
I felt like I was in an episode of The West Wing.

Add to that my 3 sightings of The Queen last week
and I've enough 'Head Of State' moments to last me a while.

Here's the speech, if you're interested. It's a goodie.
He had the audience in the palm of his hand.
Sigh.
