    Belgians declare war on the UK!

    SlinkyLinkyThingy

    10 things they don't like about us

    1. They are self-centred. (Literally: They think they are the belly button of the world.)

    2. Their language is universal. So they refuse to even try to speak ours when they get lost over here. (80 per cent don’t even want to take a phrase book on holidays with them!)... but they look at you condescendingly if you speak bad English.

    3. They can't do anything like everyone else (drive on the left etc).

    4. They have the worst cuisine in the world

    5. They drink warm beer, much to the despair of even our least talented brewers.

    6. They are such drunks! According to a study, the English drink 8 alcoholic drinks a day during the holidays.

    7. Their climate is even worse than ours

    8. Their tabloids only think about bums and scandals

    9. They unfairly knocked out the Red Devils from the 1990 World Cup... we haven't forgotten that goal, in the last second, by David Platt!

    10. We havent forgotten their hooligans either, responsible for the death of 39 people at Heysel in 1985.

    The paper went on to acknowledge that Britons were not all bad, however. La Capitale conceded that English gardens, London at Christmas, and the small matter of the repeated intervention of "liberators who came to our aid every time we were invaded" were all reasons to love the British.

    Hard to argue with the facts though. Still they can stuff their non milky chocolate where the sun don't shine. Insipid boring country that it is.

        They forgot to mention that we think a Walloon is something you have to blow up before eating...

          Who cares what the Belgians think?

          'Belgium'. Isn't that the slip lane the Germans use to get their tanks up to speed before invading France?

              Our beer is meant to be warm!

              Can't argue with the footy hooligans though...

                Belgium - the rudest word in the universe, banned in most parts of the galaxy.

                Having been there a couple of times, apart from being flat and boring, I thought it was OK. Well, Bruge was anyway.
                How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                    It’s a dreadful place. Apart from the waffles… and the Frits Vans… and the fish restaurants… the all night bars in Brussels… and the ladies so friendly
