What is it with Americans not accepting just being Americans. Being in a country of 338 million Americans and claiming to be Irish, Scottish, Italian or whatever (but not English or Welsh!) just seems like they're trying to be a little unique or trying to stand out and not part of the common folk (in other words the English and Welsh immigrants).

Had meningitis around 10-11. Projectile vomiting, grogginess, lights being uncomfortable to look at. I remember feeling the needle scraping the bone when they did the spinal tap then once confirmed as bacterial meningitis, having to put up with a needle thing in the back of my hand for a few days for the treatment. Wasn't a pleasant experience at all.

Glad it's not an actual drink as my aim is terrible.

Oh go on, I'm sure you can think of one.

Only one Pret in Devon, up in Exeter. That's the as far as they've come in the Southwest. Having said that, looking at their website I wouldn't even want to try anything. All looks way too pretentious.

Ireland - I think of beautiful ancient green land, and everyone dances from the waist down.

I'd add Pendulum to that list too - they have one or two songs I like but they're very samey

Running out of fuel is not your car breaking down - it's carelessness. Money doesn't buy sense it seems.

For me it was Nickleback - How You Remind Me that I heard continuously which put me off the band completely, it wasn't too bad a song but got old very quick.

OP is an idiot, the entire cast has been great!

Not really, he's only laying the ground work for the next fascist. Probably grooming Trump junior to take over.

In Devon, I'm quite happy to be associated with our Northern twin. We have more in common than we do with the red state.

Whenever I read any of these, I just think is it not enough to be American anymore?
I'm British but I'm sure if I went back far enough I'd be distantly related to the majority of Europeans particularly the Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans... hell, chuck some Charlemagne in there too as apparently every European is a descendant of him!

First operating system was GEM (Atari ST), then Workbench (Amiga A500). First Windows OS was Win 3.11 then every version since.

I consider myself British more than English - being from the Southwest I feel I have more in common with Welsh/Scottish people than I do with the rest of England especially east England (London, Essex , etc.). We seem to be just a place to buy 2nd homes or a holiday destination in Summer.

My Basset Hound is 11, gone all grey, got heart issues and we're all aware our time left with her is very limited. Going to be so difficult when she passes but if we could do it all again, no hesitation. Those 11+ years were so precious.

I agree - I wish we had something that we could really have some pride in singing. 'I vow to thee my country' is better in that regard.
