So here's this idea for a new historical "what-if" novel I've been working on.
The Revolutionary War is won not by the colonists, but by Britain. As a result, the world in 2006 is quite different than it would have been if the United States had broken away. Actually, it's not. The only difference is that coupons have a cash value of 1/20 p. I'm having problems spinning this thing into 300 pages.

I remember when I first watched Frasier (when it first hit the UK, many moons ago), and I kept wondering if he was part English, by his accent.
Then I realised he was just posh. I guess posh people are pretty much the same on both sides of the pond.
I can smell a SCREENPLAY!
"The only difference is that coupons have a cash value of 1/20 p."
Impossible. This would necessarily simplify tax planning for Mr. and Mrs. Gwyneth Paltrow.
