What it means to be British.

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, when they are overseas, in trying to be popular, they pretend to be Irish."

And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of anything foreign!
