Being British...

One of the British national daily newspapers is asking readers "what it
means to be British?".

This answer from a Swiss guy sums it up nicely:

"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 ".

Sounds all too familiar....
