Very proud to be British because...
Only in Britain... can a pizza get 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
healthy 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 put our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.
Only in Britain... do we buy hot dogs in packs of ten and buns in
packs of eight.
Only in Britain... do we use answering machines to screen calls and
then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we
didn't want to talk to in the first place.
Only in Britain... are there handicap parking places in front of a
skating rink.
3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their
tongue.
142 Brits were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new
shirts.
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.
19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas
decorations were chocolate.
British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker
pulling accidents.
101 British people since 1999 have had to have broken parts of
plastic toys pulled out of the soles of their feet.
18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a
lit cigarette in their mouth.
A massive 543 Brits were admitted to A&E in the last two years
after opening bottles of beer with their teeth.
5 Brits were injured last year in accidents involving out of
control Scalextric cars.
