The fact that we are not French. We are a little bit French, a lot of German, a bit Nordic and a small part "native" British. Multi cultural lot! As for British food, only British people like it, with the possible exception of Fish and Chips. A lot of good reasons on here, though. P.S. Just realised this thread's been kicking about for quite some time! Edited by the_mcanuff_stuff (24 Nov 2009 10:03am)

British Rail, when it existed. Bring back BR. The railways would be far, far better under a new BR. Obviously, you don't remember them.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |

I,M ENGLISH not bloody british
Very disppointed at some of the anti - Welsh / Scottish & Irish comments. Being English in itself is all about being a mixture of god knows how many nationalities. I am proud to be Welsh but I am also proud to be British we all as a nation have achieved far more than a lot of countries that are a great deal larger than us. My single biggest reason for being proud of being British is that as a nation, we faced down the Nazis in 1939 when we could have easily taken the soft option and appeased Hitler. If we hadn't we would now live in a very different world. We are also defined by our manners. Edited by Welsh_Eagle (27 Nov 2009 5:26pm)
