Only in Britain . . . . . can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance

Only in Britain . . . . . do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front

Only in Britain . . . . . do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke

Only in Britain . . . . . do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters

Only in Britain . . . . . do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage

Only in Britain . . . . . do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place

NOT TO MENTION . . . . .

3 Brits die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue

142 Brits were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new shirts

58 Brits are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers

31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in

19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas decorations were chocolate

British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker pulling accidents

101 people since 1999 have had broken parts of plastic toys pulled out of the soles of their feet

18 Brits had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth

A massive 543 Brits were admitted to A&E in the last two years after opening bottles of beer with their teeth

5 Brits were injured last year in accidents involving out of control Scalextric cars

And finally . . . . . In 2000 eight Brits cracked their skull whilst throwing up into the toilet

I'd say thats more like a US kinda thing. They think that they won't get fat by ordering a diet coke.

Isn't a diet coke more dangerous than the original one?

Probably old people. You know what they're like.

Coronation Street starts 5 minutes late, they have a heart attack.

Nice to know other countries are as bad as we are, and yeah the ambulance part is true. When my mom needed one we waited so long I finally gave up and took her myself.

Actually, I do that...and it's not because I think that a diet coke will keep me thin, it's because regular coke is too sugary and I can feel it furring up the back of my teeth as I drink it. So, in the event I can't find Pepsi, I have diet coke.

Tera · 02-02-2004, 11:29 AM

WTF??

British Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker pulling accidents

Am I just not all the way awake, or does this make no sense? Is there another meaning for Cracker that I don't know?

Please enlighten

Project-Shadow · 02-02-2004, 11:33 AM

Cracker = Christmas cracker

A cracker is a thing 2 people pull at Christmas. It pops and you get a hat , a wee toy and a joke.

Tera · 02-02-2004, 11:55 AM
