[928uk] Fw: 928 in England

[Peter Howard]

Not entirely the case; Scottish father, Irish mother, born in Wales. I think that makes me British? Ok I support Wales when it comes to rugby and England when it comes to Football. 

I quite like the idea of being British. It will be interesting to see how the debate in Scotland pans out.

We accept it from foreigners, but only because we are polite and tolerate their ignorance. We are not as tolerant and polite as the Dutch, so be warned.
