Re: Some British cultural points of interest
But now me...
Glenmorangie pure...
Haggis.... (Going to get some sparks off that one)
20+ cheeses + bread (Seems to be a Preston area thing)
Your over cooked green peas...
English breakfast at 4 PM in the afternoon, can you seriously look me in the eye's and state "I can manage that at 4 AM" ? (Weird Dutch humor)
The mega bags with 20+ kinds of little bags of chip varieties in them (Love the salt and sour ones)
Love your cars...
To mention a few more...

Add how dare you day anything against the national treasure that is David Attenborough. Clearly you know nothing about the man.
You can get BBC R4 anywhere through the magic of the internet.
Not all Brits overcook peas
We eat cheese and bread throughout the British Isles not just in Preston.
WTF are 'salt & sour' crisps?

Re: Some British cultural points of interest
I wasn't asking for you ropinion, I was telling you how it is. = I'm way beyond the days of school M, and you don't start a discussion with telling the other party "How it is" 
You aren't British! = 101% true, never stated to be British either.
Add how dare you day anything against the national treasure that is David Attenborough. Clearly you know nothing about the man. In a true democracy you might not agree with all opinions, but you respect them. 
You can get BBC R4 anywhere through the magic of the internet. = Not true, it's a paid for channel here in Holland.
Not all Brits overcook peas = Won't go into that, haven't tasted proper ones in the UK yet. 
We eat cheese and bread throughout the British Isles not just in Preston. = I was told it was a Preston after dinner dish "20+ cheeses and English bread". I assume the rather good looking, far to young Lady in question was telling the truth, apparently she wasn't. Don't kill me over it.
WTF are 'salt & sour' crisps? = WTF you tell me, it was written on the damn bag!!!!

Re: Some British cultural points of interest
Weescot, great thread....Can I suggest perhaps an inclusion ref The Royal Family.An area worth comparing and contrasting between Scotland and Dubai.
The Queen. Good Bless her...
Here is Scotland's probably most beloved family and their 'Christmas Message'.
One can immediately identify the similarities in the importance of primogeniture& hegemony

Do you really want me to answer that one? Don't think so. And as I'm alone in this Lions den, logic states that I'll withdraw it.
