One of the British national daily newspapers asked readers "what it
means to
be British?" Some of the emails are hilarious.

But this is one from a chap in Switzerland:

"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
Chinky
takeaway 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!"

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.

NOT TO MENTION,

3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue.

142 Brits were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new
shirts.

58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of
screwdrivers.

31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while
the
fairy lights were plugged in.

19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas
decorations
were chocolate.

British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker
pulling
accidents.

101 people since 1999 have had broken parts of plastic toys pulled out
of
the soles of their feet.

18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit
cigarette in their mouth.

A massive 543 Brits were admitted to A&E in the last two years after
opening bottles of beer with their teeth.

5 Brits were injured last year in accidents involving out of Control
Scalextric cars.

And finally,

In 2000 eight Brits cracked their skull whilst throwing up into the
toilet.

Are you proud to be British?
