Proud to be British?

[gb]

In Britain we drive German cars to Irish pubs for a Belgian beer. Then traveling home, we grab an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.

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 we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive
and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.
Only in Britain are there disabled parking places in front of a skating
rink.
3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue.
142 Brits were injured last year by not removing all pins from new
shirts.
58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of
screwdrivers.
18 Brits had serious burns in 2006 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
trying to open beer bottles with their teeth.
In 2006 eight Brits were admitted to hospital with fractured skulls
incurred whilst throwing up into the toilet.
And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of all things foreign!
