    Something British for Christmas?

    Now then folks, what with the pound being worth less than the European Lira, I'm considering using my not-very-hard-earned euros to come to the UK and buy something British for christmas.

    Any suggestions?
    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

        How about buying Norfolk? That's still fairly British compared to much of the country and at the current exchange rate you can probably afford it easily.

I believe in the righteous, inteligent clued-up section of society against the brain-dead moronic masses as well as the mediocre, soulless bourgeoisie. I believe in punk rock. In northern soul. In acid house. In mod. In rock and roll. I also believe in pre commercial righteous, rap and hip hop. Thats my manifesto"

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
