Apart from the Scottish! They tried to invade us and steal our wives. Prendrelemick knows exactly what I am talking about! Dont you ever try to give her back or I will return all our hostages, including Uncle Walter, unfortunately I cant return Aunty Val, she loves it here, she says the scenery is wonderful. Besides that she does not want to witness you losing the ASHES again. :lol::lol::lol:

I was going to say that. Don't Americans put OUR flags on their packs when they go to Europe, so that people don't give them sh*t? ;)

Polish... they're all the same, aren't they?" If you consider that we are a country of immigrants... mongrels, if you will... you'll understand why we have problems relating to the Irish bit**ing that they are not English or why the Israeli's can't get along with the Palestinians. I (a true Aryan: blonde, blue-eyed and of German heritage) eat with my Jewish studio-mate in a Palestinian diner... unless our Chinese studio-partner shows up... in which case we go out to the Thia-Vietnamese restaurant.:lol:

By the way... you'll note that I am well aware that Foster's is "pi** water" but as "pi** water" goes it actually tastes a hell of a lot better than most American versions of the same.:(

Don't worry - nobody can mistake an American for a Canadian, or an American beer for a Canadian one for that matter, though you guys most certainly win when it comes to wine (and I wonder why?).

Though, Americans saying Australian beer tastes like Pi** water is a bit hypocritical, no? This calls for a Bud Light?

You are not on there Prend, we hate her in Scotland as well. I will try to help you out here though. Middle order crap, get rid of Collingwood and Bell. Should you bring back Ramprakash, he has brilliant figures at the Oval? All is not lost and, believe it or not, I have watched every ball of the series, but you do need a fit Flintoff. There is no Warne or Macgrath and they are beatable, but someone has got to stay at the crease in the middle order. Aunty Val says she is not up for it, but to remind you that you are due her a favour. Seriously I do hope you win, I saw The last Ashes in England when you beat the greatest cricketers in the world and as a Scot I hope you do it again.

The best beer is from continental Europe, although the English and Irish do try, they fall just a tad bit short. Whiskey's on the other hand, the Scottish are the masters of that. Irish are once again pretty decent too. American Whiskey's? Well, I'm not a fan, but I guess you can always drink it with some coke.....

And now I must be off, I'm going to the cheese shop and wine store to get some good wine and cheese for tonight. :D

Athiest, where are the bandages, I have just been given a metaphorical doing over on one of the God threads. My crime! to stray from the point. I think you may find that you didnt get away unscathed either. :)

Don't you just love the first drink of the day? Don't get me wrong I'm not an alcoholic or anything, but that first rush is pretty cool. ;) Better still if you are really thirsty and you make yourself wait for it...ah!

That is the difference between us Scots and you sassanachs, you have total self control, while we clearly do not! :)

Na... "Real Americuns" don't go packin' cross Europe. We're all rich, remember? We rent a car and strut about in our sh**-kicking boots and cowboy hats listening to Johnny Cash turned up way loud. Shania Twain...? Sheeee....eeet!.:lol:
