I found this the other day. All you guys in America and Canada (and Puerto Rico) should read this for a snippet into Brit life.
Being British
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 get 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 are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.
NOT TO MENTION..
