I like all the burgers and CD's you buy, i Like all the movie tickets and military hardware you buy.

I like all the Billions of dollars Brits send into our pockets from the other side of the atlantic.

OH YEA, AND YOU GUYS HAVE GOOD MUSICIANS, YEA THEY TOTALLY COPIED OUR STYLES OF MUSIC, BUT YOU DO IT WELL, SO YU ARE FORGIVEN.

Britain makes great music, far better than the SHIIIITE that mainland europe puts out.

Britain has good music, no one can take that away.

There's plenty of things about britain to dislike, but music certainly aint one. You guys do it right. You get it.

Our history; traditions; the monarchy; pomp & ceremony; architecture; our diverse countryside; thatched cottages; fish & chips; seaside towns; the Beatles; unpredictable weather; Shakespeare; Dickens; NHS; our stiff upper lip; our innate sense of fair play.

I like more things about England rather than Britain as a whole.

As much as I harp on about disliking UK I would say the following are our positives:

*Sense of humour
*Education
*Weather (yes it can be random, but at least we get variation)
*The language and its many dialects (we have so many for such a small country)
*Literature

[Patrick]

It's better craic than the USA.

Everyone's abit more, not laid back, that would apply to Ireland more but everyone seems to just have abit more fun.

We have the best comedians.

Our Big Brother, Sh*ts all over the other versions.

We've got Pixie Lott.

Alot really, I use to despise England though because of where I was brought up until a few years back on Holiday when I met some people from England, then I came on here and met other people from England and realised everything people have said didn't apply for all of England.

I'm sure the English tourism board are counting the money they are going to make off JJJ being a marketable attraction to their great nation.

Sounds like stalking to me. Stalking nobodies no less!

Oh and Tesco completely owns the crap out of Dunnes for the record. In every possible way. The 24 hour a day service and automated machines saving you the trial of dealing with real humans makes it perfect fodder for stumbling in to get some grub when your off yer trolley in the wee hours.
