Sometimes I like to browse the web for historical tidbits.

I found it interesting (not remembering what I learned in high school) that the Brits lost at the Battle of Hastings and a Frenchman and his heirs ruled England for almost 300 years.

Norman not french and plenty of our lot were over there as well. Thats why we are very sensitive about anything where you could loose an eye.:D

I know a guy here in Ottawa who wears that slogan on a T-shirt and he is one of the most xenophobic english people I have ever met.

I'm not in Ottawa, not allowed by court order after i killed all those pols a few years ago, but I too have the shirt.

Thing is reality is what it is. We are a cute bunch.:D

Hey Lancs....FWIW I was born not too far from you (Stockport) but xenophobic english people get on my wick. There is one thing to be patriotic but english people do have a tendency to think that everybody should speak english when going abroad (I have relatives like this and it is excruciating) and that english things are the best etc.

Don't mean to get up your ginnel or anything, but I had to say it.



No problem at all with the jabs. It comes with the territory. I'm usually very low key about promoting our excellence but do love to wind up people on this board. After all we did master the art of self-depracating humour.:)

there is a dane in particular that has severe "butter cookie" envy.

You invented to toss to work off the sexual frustrations caused by your women wanting a wee bit O' Ireland in them.

The guys charged must have been Welsh. Asda sells wellies with slightly larger wellie tops in such locations as Swansea, Cardiff, Cymru, Pwllheli, and of course, the world famous Welsh town of. Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. You try to pronounce, it, I can't. :D
