Yes, we do that to confuse you foreigners (and ourselves of course). I do like the pictures of small rodents on some of our tanks, it makes them look more homely, in my opinion.

If you didn't understand "The Prisoner"(Paddy McGoohan was born in America) or laughed at "Monty Python" (one of the team was a Yank, by the way), then you have no hope of understanding Britishness.

I still don't fully understand what it means to be British to this day, I'm still trying to be English(), but it has been a fun ride. All aspects considered.
