Naturalisation

Our process of naturalisation is primarily connected to material objects. For instance, my new computer has a British plug. We will be fully naturalised when all our appliances have British plugs. I wonder how many years it takes. How often do you buy a new hair dryer or electic toothbrush?

Staffan has just taken another radical step toward naturalisation. His car has now a British speedometer.

This morning I dried my hair with a dryer that used to have a British plug. It's had a replacement two pin, European plug for over 20 years.
Some hedgehogs don't naturalise, we just run wild. Lydia
