Also, to resolve your argument; Tim Peake is the first British man to travel into space as a European astronaut (ESA) and not NASA. He's also the first English person to live on the ISS. Previous Brits have been part of NASA, and lived on Mir, not the ISS.

I think you are talking a load of chuff, but I'm not that bothered really. I'll leave you to your misinformed flag waving.
Are we talking about the same topic, or still Helen Sharman, the female Brit funded by the Russian space programme? I was about three when she went up to ISS.
As I was only discussing Tim Peake, and despite the correction,(of English media narratives), I’m still being accused for no reason other than to stress that public funding and the fact he is a highly intelligent male (such as having a girl or boy) went up into space. To carry out important finds.
… as for praise??
I’m English and don’t feel the need to take the time for ’offensive and deliberate’ American narratives.
(I’m not trying to upstage anybody). If the word caption was my choice then its my right to deny or withheld it. Seeing as I’m the OP. Not Darth Vadar.
The reason people are ’proud’ okay, is because he was supported via the public and we have a right to feel proud, seeing as the only news you hear these days is who’s bombing who and who is invading international air space as well as newly evolved migrant laws.
Far from your beating wings of disapproval, I’d say Christmas is slightly over rated.

How cliché. Tim Peake is the first British man to travel into space as a European astronaut (ESA) and not NASA. He's also the first English person to live on the ISS. Previous Brits have been part of NASA, and lived on Mir, not the ISS.

You're right, the Guardian is far more influential. A lot of my sources were assorted, this made it harder for me to sort through.
Gravity is interesting and I hope it can correlate the two differences between tinnitus and gravity.
Understanding medical science isn’t a walk in the park either.The inner ear is a vast complex mechanism and I used to get very poorly and aggravated as a child.
My sinus complaints are never ending and are counter effective in dealing possibly with immune disorders and affliction with the meninges.
Health isn’t something us Brits like to discuss.
