Be very proud to be British Because...
Only in Britain... can you get a pizza to your house faster than
an ambulance.

Only in Britain... do supermarkets make sick people
walk all the way to the
back of the shop to get their prescriptions while
people can buy cigarettes
at the front.

Only in Britain... do people order double
cheeseburgers, large fries, and a
DIET coke.

Only in Britain... do banks leave both doors open
and chain the pens to the
counters.

Only in Britain... do we leave cars worth thousands
of pounds on the drive
and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the
garage.

Only in Britain... are there disabled parking places
in front of a skating
rink.


NOT TO MENTION...

3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works
on their tongue.

58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of
screwdrivers.

31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their
Christmas tree while the
fairy lights were plugged in.

British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year
after cracker pulling
accidents.

18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new
jumper with a lit
cigarette in their mouth.

5 Brits were injured last year in accidents
involving out of control
Scalextric cars.

And finally.........

In 2000, eight Brits cracked their skulls whilst
throwing up into the
toilet.

Hey, you don't need to use a knife, screwdrivers are dangerous enough... you're not a man unless you've gauged the palm of your hand with a screwdriver trying to prise something open...

edit: wahey! Just prised my iPod apart to fix the minor crushing injury I inflicted by stepping on it this morning - no casualties, thumb or iPod! Winner!
