There are plenty of English people who would take offence to being called British too. Is there a point coming?

I was hoping someone would have used the phrase “cork screw” by now, which would have lightened the tone (and possibly lowered it in a paradoxical kind of way).

Please don't take any guns, grenades or ammunition with you.
Not even a little hunting knife.
Seriously. It could become very not funny.

Surely that's a good reason to go "meh"? If I go to a new city or country, I want to see what is different, I don't want to end up browsing the same shops I can at home and eating the same food... I want to explore the "local colour" and try local dishes in restaurants or pubs.

If you had been born in Belfast, there's about a 50% chance you could have been a Brit

I think that the correct figure is 100% brit but nearly 50% would not like you calling them that.
