Being British is about driving in a German car, to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer.
Traveling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a chinese meal 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 anything foreign. |

Being British to us is about driving a Nissan, designed and made in Sunderland, to a proper pub with Timothy Taylor's Directors on tap, for a decent local steak with chips, veg and Bisto gravy. Then, if pi55ed, walking home in Walkley clogs to sit in front of a blazing fire topped with Thorelsby coal to watch Coronation Street on the old Pye telly powered by electricity from Drax. A nice cup of Yorkshire tea before bed goes down well, made with proper water that fell out of the skies over the Dales or Pennines, with a nice Abbey biscuit from Whalley or a McVitie from Carlisle. And we are not in the LEAST suspicious of anything foreign - and to prove it, we've even invited Jelster, Fizzwheel, Dr Rich and a few other blatant foreigners to come up here in June......although we may lock our women up because they seem to be a source of great attraction for marauding Southerners (don't they, ****y and ***c....) |
