What It Means To Be British

One of the British national daily newspapers is asking 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 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 “.

Just a little humour to brighten up your Friday evening if its moving slowly!

It’s either that, or you can watch David Hasselhoff’s best ever music video… errr… yeah…. Happy Friday!

    I lived in Switzerland for several years, and I don’t think the Swiss are in any position to criticise the British for suspicion of anything foreign!!!
