Just had this email from a friend....thought I'd share 
A thought for the day! 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 anything foreign.
~
Oh and...... 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... 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.
(We might be British but hell we're funny !!)
