Bysse Shelley once observed:
'A hater he came and sat by a ditch,
And he took an old cracked lute;
And he sang a song which was more of a screech
'Gainst a woman that was a brute.'
Poets like Lemmy Kilmister come to mind, though he sometimes feels underappreciated
The British love a trier, not always a winner. Winners live to rue the day and are sometimes considered to be on poor form. Show-offs bring bilious attacks. This is where Americans often fail to comprehend us as they base foundations for success on attainment and superficial gain. We base success on peace, quiet, the size of our tomatoes,a proper Sunday Dinner and a decent pint at the local. The British have many great habits such as pie and mash (with liqor) treats from the fish shop/chip shop. These have been in decline due to health concerns but I can personally verify that with a few tweaks, you can make very healthy pie and chips/fish and chips. I expect Jamie Oliver can answer with a recipe - seems slimmer than our favourite chef, James Martin.
One of our most beloved emblems of courage and skill, is the perfection of the Red Arrows, whom are a celebreation of courage and fortiude of service men and women everywhere.
One of our favourite tryers of all time, was Eddie the Eagle. did not win a medal at the 1988 Calgary Games, but losing at the Olympics made him popular
This picture of the Red Arrows will bring a tear to the eye of all good Brits as does the song 'Land of Hope and Glory' and 'There'll Always Be and England'
