Back to Britain!

[King of the Sandbox]

After the airport ambience.

Beer, bacon sandwiches and beans. Then belching.

Followed by Curry, Crisps(Walker's of course) and Cheese.

There's Britain for ya.

I would kill a man just to get Walker's (Lay's) to make the Roast Chicken and Thyme flavor over here, with absolutely no remorse. I fell in love with it on one of my 'holidays' to England, and now, I am at a severe loss here back in the 'States.

If anyone hasn't said Tea, Crumpets, Top hats, Monocles, Garden parties, Gentlemen's Pugelism, Whiskery Moustaches, Fancy shoes or picnics typical checkered tablecloths I will be rather dissapointed.

 

[Maquette]

Go and have a hearty pub lunch, stay for a few pints, look at the clock and realise it's now 2am and you're hungry again, doner kebab on the way home.

Believe me, everyone I know has "shopping lists" to get everytime they're back in Blighty. Usual suspects being Marmite, Branston Pickle, Kendal Mint Cake and Walkers crisps. Cadbury's Dairy Milk is almost an essential.

 

[Elemorea]

Start an empire and take over India, (ah the good o'l days).

 

[SonicWaffle]

Get beaten by Australia in sports

First post contains epic win

Epic and innacurate, two-for-one! I do believe we gave them a good, stiff rogering in the cricket last week, although opinion is divided on whether that counts as a sport...

Only in Britain can you say "stiff rogering" about anything other than gay sex with a straight face.

Cricket and gay sex have a lot in common. Balls flying everywhere, men swinging wood around, and its best to wear protection.

That said, I will work "stiff rogering" into conversation any way I can, because it is a brilliant phrase.

I don't care too much for marmite, and the 'pickle goo' as my wife's dad called it, is disgusterous. The mint cake is ok, but I'm not a big fan of mint & chocolate together.

Cabury, however, is apparently 'real' chocolate, and my wife defends it to the death, calling all American chocolate 'wanna-be's'.

I agree. Flake is the shit.

Pub. Wait...no...err...dammit! Pub!

 

[BubbaJeff]

Binge drinking + complaining about the state of the country = Britain. Its gotta be done

 

[I_support_umbrellas]

I suggest renacting a monty python sketch with a stranger.

 

[Palademon]

Complain that Americans and most other people dont speak proper english. Complain that American Football shouldnt be called Football since little foot contact is required, and therefore insist that people actually call our version of football, football and not soccer.

If the OP were to do this, I'd say the "Wink, wink, nudge, nudge" sketch would do him great pleasure.

Binge drinking + complaining about the state of the country = Britain. Its gotta be done

I thought that was Ireland? *bu dum tish*

OT: Play cricket? in addition to drinking tea, eating crumpets, wearing a top hat and monocle, and complaining about the weather.

I am so stealing this.

Practice your queuing and tutting. That's all you really need.

Joke answer: In a really strong culchie accent ''Practice oppressing the Irish.''

 

[Doomsday11]

Depression (weather, economy, food you decide) then alcohol then an enraged soccer based riot... the order is up to you though really.

Reaches over and slaps Layz92 in the face that's football you uncultured lout(joke)

But seriously go for a long walk then drink a cup of tea,eat scones and finally down to the pub for some traditional home grub before starting the greatest bar fight ever.
Get it done soldier

 

[Billion Backs]

Alright, chaps? I'm heading back to dear old Blighty tomorrow after 9 months in Mother Russia, and I'm looking for suggestions of the most typically English things I can fill my first few days with.

That is to say, before I once again revert to my normal status as your everyday cynical and jaded Brit who loves nothing more than our national pastime of complaining that "this country has gone to the dogs!"

Suggestions?

Psh, Russia has gone to dogs even more then Britain. Back in 19th century!

Tea, crumpets, Monty Pythons, I can't really think of anything else.

 

[Quaxar]

Shout "I didn't expect that kind of Spanish Inquisition", then stare at the door and wait!

Anyone who isn't british reading this will think us brits just sit around wearing silly eye wear, drinking tea and complaining. Oh wait...

Oh, don't worry I've been to the UK before. I know some of you are also busy monitoring all the little screens for all the little surveillance cams while actually watching soccer on one of them.

 

[Private Custard]

Drink tea

Eat crumpets

Don't forget complain about the weather no matter what.

Oh, and have some fish and chips. I know this is stupid, but do any other country have fish and chips like we do?

New Zealand. But the fish is better!

OT, take a walk in the countryside on a warm and sunny evening. Few places in the world are more pleasant than the British countryside in the summertime
