Very good as I am technically British, although for the benefit of you foreigners, British ALWAYS means English.
Eomer, Ah, alas... technically.... why must one be British because their countries are considered part of Great Britain. I suppose I would be 'techinally British' too. Are you a Scot, then? I'm about half Scottish... from more recently I have folk from about Glasgow but in the ancient past they dwelt in Cawdor Castle. If you are Scottish and detest being called 'Scotch' then let us shake hands, brother.

There is a constant grey cloud over these islands.
But I find the grey cloud very sweet, don't you? Away from home now I don't feel so homesick when I see grey clouds. I suppose it would hard to have the loveliest, greenest isles without the rainiest isles, eh?

Please don't tell Seamus Heaney about my slight in the meantime.
Lush, no, I suppose I shan't.... I will be most gracious to you. Just don't make me change my mind! *threatening look of Gandalf*

Evisse, I suppose one can be British and a good Christian at the same time, but you might be lacking in something if you were cheeky... seriously cheeky and not jokingly cheeky.

Lush, reflecting on prior posts of those who were 'angsty teens,' what happens if you end up with such and you are 'angsty' but well past the teenage years?
