Well the Scottish are announcing their nationality a damn sight louder for some reason! Maybe the Scottish are just disproportionately loud?

I guess we'd be;
Sending letters by carrier, becoming unglued,while walking around with various infections and open sores, whilst standing in a field, with our money under a mattress, with no machine gun or shite cars to buy unable to figure out how much money we have anyway so we wouldn't have to go to the movies to escape the door to door encyclopedia salesman or study engineering at school or get unsoliisited junk ads that deplete the worlds forests. There'd be no fat boring old guys walking around fields trying to put little balls in small holes or intraveinous drug users who could spend their time trying to figure out various mathematical mysteries while getting soaking wet on unpaved roads then come home and be unable to make a quick hot snack or even a preserve sandwich so Paddington would have to eat jam or even peanut butter? We'd never have a flat tyre so road rage or drive by shootings would be unheard of but driving through watterlogged fields would be impossible, There'd be no shite pantomimes at Christmas or bad Clive Owen movies or kids with rotten teeth begging for candy in October but many wouldn't be around anyway, the British empire powered by it's navy would'nt have been so great due to the high mortality rates and hot bovril/coffee/tea at a picnic or football game would be impossible. Live theatre with people acting would still be popular instead of watching shite programs while getting heart disease on your living room couch, if you were not already dead from an infection or STD of course, and then you would be wide awake worrying about what you were infected with not being able to take solice in some great mysteries, sea-faring tales and your kids bedtime story would be meaningless. On new years eve you would get drunk on vodka, tequila, beer, wine, brandy and then not have a song to sing when pissed............................ I guess that's where we would be
