When people speak of anything they imply a particular definition, so it is probably much more likely with something as loosely defined as europe. Especially in the UK where feelings on the matter are so polarised and Europe seems to be that thing that is over there.

I sold a tablet once (fujitsu) saying 'Only ship to UK and europe'. The winning bidder was in israel but said they thought it was europe as they got the eurovision song contest!

Anyway, happy day to you too, either european or not. Hope your OU goes well. I am on my final year this year, just the 30 point project and I am out of there.
