We have a huge roundabout made up of 5 mini roundabouts in my town. I take a packed lunch and sleeping bag with me if I have to use it.

Swindon? Gotta love the magic roundabout. I'm sure when Americans see it they have a little nervous breakdown.

13 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Colchester actually! God, I thought we were the only ones with a magic roundabout. They're breeding...

Damn! I thought the Swindon one was unique.

"shambolic" is my new favorite word. I am going to use it at least three times today. That's right. I'm impulsive that way.

One simply can not be "neither here nor there" on the subject of Yeast extracts. Promite, Marmite or Vegemite. Pick one. Stay loyal for life

As a Canadian, apparently we are more influenced by the British than the Americans

Americans make fun of Canadians for being polite therefore it's hardly likely you learned that trait from them.

As a Canadian I did the bus one just the other day actually...

We are still part of the commonwealth. So I suppose it makes sense.

13 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Most Americans I've met are very polite. Total opposite of British folk, especially in London.

Wait 20 years, my mom is an Elementary school teacher. From the stories I've heard it's going to be hell.

This was funny. I wish I knew more British people.

As an Englishman we must be introduced by a mutual acquaintance before we are allowed to talk. Introducing oneself is rude.

13 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

How is that rude? Also, out mutual acquaintance is imgur. Imgur says "hi, you must meet this young woman. She's from Norway" Nice to meetyou

It's one of those really old rules people only kind of follow it now. I went to Norway once it was very picturesque. Nice to meet you too.

13 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Ah we have some of those rules here. Like "don't think you are someone". I hate that.. You went to Norway? Where? :)

I went round a few places, Trondheim was the largest city I visited. Did lots of hiking, visited a glacier and stuff. It was good, also wet.

I'm British, and would like to do the gentlemanly thing & offer to know you. But as a British person we don't talk to people we don't know.

Wanna break the norm? I said I wanted to know British people, so technically you already know me a little. ;)

I... I guess I could. Hello, how are you today? (Actually that wasn't as painful as I expected)
