    [​IMG]Only in Britain



    Be 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 lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.


    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 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.


    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.


    9 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas
    decorations were chocolates.


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


    101 people since 1999 have had 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.


    And finally.........


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


    RULE BRITANNIA!!

    I think thats the same everywhere. Except i can see the lighting a jumper on fire after trying it on with a lit cigarette in your mouth happening to a british person quite easily
