Thought for today - 20 July

Being British is about wearing clothes made in China with Italian shoes, driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry, Greek fish and chips or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.

NO to both of these. ENGLISH real ale (bitter). Regarding the shows on TV, definitely as few American as possible. :D

No to all counts except the Italian shoes.

I treated the topic as a joke, but as we are now being serious. My car is built in Swindon by a Japanese owned company. My shoes are more often than not made in England by Clarkes. There are no Irish pubs anywhere near to my home. I watch very few American shows on TV. We definitely do not eat kebabs, or any other fast food containing over processed meat. Our favourite local chippy is English owned.

I'm out of step too as the lining has just come apart in my Italian made boots that I've been wearing for what seems like months of wet weather (walking the dog) and they were so comfortable!

Back to the wellies now which I don't like as they are uncomfortable and my socks always roll down inside :(
