1) Your women are very attractive. A combination of unsundamaged skin, making an effort with clothes, make up and appearance, and a certain more feminine style than the brown, skinny tomboy Aussie shielas.

2) Your country is full. Of people, houses and cars. Every car park if full, every road and lane. Everywhere you go, there are people everywhere. Lines, Ques. Bit claustrophobic, but then again I come from the bush I guess.

3) Your all very cheerfull, polite, formal and friendly.

4) Your pretty good drivers

5) You don't know how much culture, history and old school charm your towns and villages have.

6) Pay and display should be made illegal.

7) Your food tastes fresher, tastier and is better cooked.

8) London is full of Russians

9) You talk funny accents

10) Your weather is rubbish, so I don't understand point 3

11) Your pubs are national living treasures.

12) Euro beers are on tap for reasonable prices, win.

13) You live a few hours flight time to some awesome places, but dont travel much?

14) You think a few hours drive is a big day, we have to drive 7 hours to check the mail.

15) Your women are fit.

 

Kthxbi

Steve, you forgot to mention the scuba diving is awesome as well.

And they are all so very musical and talented - random bands are world class!

And the guns everywhere, and the armoured cars and chromed shotties.

No idea about Wigan women. I married one of the Warrington variety though, so I'll back you up on that.

Oh, and your phone service/coverage is rubbish. Not being able to get a signal in major population centres like London, Manchester, etc is amazing, considering you have a country the size of a peice of toast. Your comms engineers need to come down under to get a lesson in covering 4500 km highways in deserts for a population 1/20th.

12) Euro beers are on tap for reasonable prices, win.

It may be called "Euro" beer, but it's all brewed in the UK, like Fosters, and tastes sh*t, like Fosters!

We make pretty good decisions too - we never joined the Euro...

PS.  Steve, are the women hot because the climate is hot or is itthe other way around?

1) You did have an insight into a particularly foxy group of chicks though, not sure the entire UK has such a high standard of 'sheilas'

8)  in central lodon 83% of all bar staff are Australian*

14) Distance is relative,  you could move nearer to a post office? Manchester to the south coast is a long way -FACT (SJ wins)

15) Yeah we are!

*blatantly made up

1) TRUE. You are the "Optimus Prime" of style and attention to detail in fashion and grooming dear,

8) I think 98% Polish and 2% "Other" may be more correct.

14) Thats 7 hours to the boundary fence to the mailbox. If you want a post office then you better take 3 days food.

Manchester to the south coast is a long way? Please. Its little more than a bread and milk run to the corner shop...
