It’s a very British thing
What are the most British things you can think of?
Be it vinegar on chips or carpet in the toilets (I’ll never understand why that was a thing here). |
…afternoon teas, Sunday roasts…that’s all food, isn’t it…:laugh:..cricket and pub beer gardens in the summer…
|
…Joanna Lumley…:love:..

Baked beans. We have aisles dedicated to them. :laugh:
|
…also great names for towns/villages etc…like Scratchy Bottom in Dorset…
|
…and great pub names also…
|
…it’s also such a British thing as well to see some people running/exercising or walking their dogs during the daytime when we’re having a heat wave…rather than early morning or evening…

Isn’t it odd that Helen Mirren the highly regarded , well respected , ‘experienced’ , actress was apparently the first actress to bare her ( ample) breasts on British TV !! |
