Things you love about the UK

[Islandborn]

I like the UK because its not the US :thumbsup:

Sensitive no, but if I lived in bankrupt California I would feel the same. By the way, since you guys arent allowed to have big screen tv's anymore, I'll take any 50inch and bigger LCD's before the Nanny state fines ya'll. Just a thought. Good luck out there. Get your taxes back yet?

[Islandborn]

Looking at the public schools and roads in Cali, I'm not sure what the ridiculous high taxes go for? Might explain why buisness is FLEEING to Nevada in droves.

I used to like our laws on cannabis until the pricks decided to change it to class B and fire the head scientist guy for saying it's not as harmful as alcohol and cigarettes. I like the way we talk and words we use which are different from Americans.

All in all it's a good country to be in!

:rasta:

taxation without representation...oh wait

I missed off pubs, "bars" don't seem that good in America, I like the good old english pub and the chain pubs i.e. J.D. Wetherspoons, it may be depressing in the daytime but the drinks are cheap and they have a large selection.

Nice country roads for fast driving

I grew up near the Pennines and the roads round that way will test any biker, I've lost count of the amount of times I've had my heart in my mouth.

Also
I'm an avid F1 fan so I have to include Ross Brawn and 2009 champion Jenson Button. :thumbsup: That's the thing about us Brits, we do like to go fast.

not forgetting the legend that is Foggy (Carl Fogarty) Supercool..

The National Health Service by faaaar!.... free national healthcare....for anyone.......dont have to be insured like in the U.S....It really is the only Great thing left in Britain..

As a biker (to nurses we're known as organ donors ) I have had many visits to various emergency rooms and will always be grateful for the standard of treatment I have recieved.
The NHS is a lot like the old bill, you never really appreciate them till you need em and thier mistakes are overblown so they overshadow any good work they do.

I have a theory, we in the UK should get injured at least once so our tax money that's been taken is paid back to us (well kinda). Getting free treatment would give us some of the money back.

Sorry stupid idea but I'm stoned as!

Skull fractured twice, reconstruction of eye socket.
Jaw broken once , also broke 6 teeth at the same time.
Humerus (upper arm) broken once
Wrist, right 3 breaks , left once.
Femur broken once
Both knees broken once
Hernia op.

All of these were in England so I'm figuring I've had my moneys worth. :thumbsup:
