Is this thread still going? In that case i'll summarise.
I love America. America is properly ace. America was built by a non-indigenous (ergo immigrant) population into the country it is today. Most Brits who have been to America love the place. What most Brits do not like is misinformed simpletons leaving the country and taking the opportunity to spout jingoistic bullshit he's picked up from the Daily Mail about the country he is leaving, even if that simple-minded knobhead has somehow managed to attract a thoroughly decent and intelligent wife, who in turn has to defend his opening statements (no chance love i'm afraid) and is subsequently forced to defend her nations ill's by a bunch of Englishmen. Which to me at least is akin to Idi Amin calling Adolf Hitler a bastard.
evhstokie, enjoy America, i've no doubt you will, it's a hell of a place. But if i was you, i'd leave the talking/thinking to your other half, because you my friend are a fucking idiot.

Have that severed dogs head you've been saving.
I'll knock you up a badger ragú to go with. Can't say fairer.

I’m saving the dogs head for a special occasion (probably have it in May sometime ) Not much for badger either, tastes like chicken, bit too bland for me. Might have some faggots.

The only bad thing i could say about Americans is they don't know how to drive and would benefit taking the British driving test . I would agree about the driving to an extent. The roads over here are so narrow to what I was used to in the States so I am sure I am not such a great driver here. I would say there are horrible drivers everywhere though because people just don't pay attention. I've never had a speeding ticket or car accident in my life and I can parrallel park a big yellow 77 passenger school bus...although I can't with my car.

Stokechick, When i worked in Georgia, they gave me one of these to pootle around in: However bad you think you might be on an English road, i don't think you could have beaten me driving that. It was like trying to steer Rutland. Point is i'm not sure that Americans are bad at driving per sé, but the cars they do drive are fucking clangers.

Did it have a gun rack in the back??? I always think of pickups down south needing a gun rack and confederate flag on it...talk about stereo-typing people, I am just as bad.

That picture doesn't do it justice - it was fucking immense. It steered in a way i can only equate to what the Quenn Mary must feel like when leaving Southampton harbour. And yes, you stereotypical bastard, there was a confederate window sticker - "one day the South shall rise again" Great people though - couldn't do enough for you. Recommend the South to anyone (except Gays perhaps )

I haven’t read any of this 5 page thread so I have no idea what it’s about.
Having said that, let me just say, I’m in full support of Paul Burrell. He is not a cock of the highest order. I think it is disrespectful to say that.
He is a “rock”, not a “cock”.

No to mention Heterosexual.
How very dare people criticise him. He's got a wife for god's sake, how many married men have ever been "outed" as gaylords? Not bloody one i'd wager!!!!
He's ony trying to teach the Septics how to get a brew on (can't be a bad thing as far as i can see) and everyone accuses him of sponging off her memory. It's what she would have wanted. He loved that woman god damn it.

“He's ony trying to teach the Septics how to get a brew on”
The septics? That doesn’t sound nice. I wouldn’t go near them put it that way.
Is there a club or association of septic people nowadays then?

I admire your commitment to following through on your fuckup!!! An example too many out there, never admit it when you’re wrong, just carry on and pretend you meant it.

That, and the fact that septic is cockney rhyming slang for Americans
Septic Tank = Yank.
Interestingly, a "listerine" is someone in the Cock-er-nee vernacular who doesn't like Americans.
Listerine - Anti-septic.
I will however, as a rule plough on irrespective of being right or not, and often without any of the available facts.

Did you get the Listerine thing from QI?
I’m sure I heard it on there?

I think so.
Did you know Henry VIII only had 4 wives? The marriage to Anne of Cleves was annulled because she was an old boot and couldn't get a stork-on when he saw her, and his marriage to Anne Boleyn was not ratified by the Catholic Church as they didn't recognise his grounds for divorce from Catherine of Aragon.
Mind you, if he'd only had 4 wives he wouldn't have sounded like as big a cunt. Which he was, i've seen his suit of armour. He was one meaty fucker at the end.

Most of the “facts” that I know have not been acquired through reading books or carrying out proper research but through overhearing conversations in pubs that usually begin with “Did you know that….” or “apparently…..”.
Once I’ve heard that I will happily pass the information onto others with 100% confidence that it’s true. If others disagree I fight it to the death.
80% of the things I probably know are urban myths.
