Proud to be British???? Lighthearted Humour enclosed

Whilst browsing the Forums at www.penaltycharges.co.uk I came across this fantastic peice of humour.....Enjoy.

If you live in UK it may be a good idea to visit the website. wink




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.

Oh and..... Only in Britain ... can a pizza get to your house faster than
an ambulance.

Only in Britain ... do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to
the back of the shop to get their prescriptions
while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in Britain ... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and
a DIET coke.

Only in Britain ... do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to
the counters.

Only in Britain ... do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive
and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.

Only in Britain ... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then
have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to
talk to in the first place.

Only in Britain ... are there disabled parking places in front of a skating
rink.

NOT TO MENTION...

3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue.

142 Brits were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new shirts.

58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of
screwdrivers.

31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the
fairy lights were plugged in.

19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas decorations
were chocolate.

British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker pulling
accidents.

101 people since 1999 have had broken parts of plastic toys pulled out of
the soles of their feet.

18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth.

A massive 543 Brits were admitted to A&E in the last two years after !!
opening bottles of beer with their teeth.

5 Brits were injured last year in accidents involving out of Control Scalextric
cars.

and finally.....

In 2000 eight Brits cracked their skull whilst throwing up into the toilet.

Only in Britian does it make more sense to sleep outside the flat than inside it.
