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.
Oh and ....
Only in Britain - Can a pizza get to your house faster than an Ambulance.
- 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.
- Do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke.
- Do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters.
- Do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.

- Are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.
