Carl Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home,Grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish Kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish Furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV. And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of all things foreign! Only in Britain can A pizza gets to your house faster than an ambulance. Only in Britain do Supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the Back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can Buy cigarettes at the front. Only in Britain do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke. Only in Britain do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters. Only in Britain do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and Lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage. Only in Britain do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to Talk to in the first place. Only in Britain are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
