+ Topical Joke
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 & watch American shows on a
Japanese TV. And the most Brit sh thing of all? Suspicion of anything
foreign ".

He has a point..
