A union of four nations, England, Scotland, wales and Northern Ireland. Former world super power. But thanks to largely friendly links with it's former colonies still can hold a lot of clout over international opinion.
With in these nations there is a very rich cultural, historical and enthic diversity that attracts over 35 million visitors a year.
Sadly it's population are now mainly disillusioned with its internal political system and as a result we have a very pro Bush government ruling a very anti bush population. However the British people have their own way of dealing with their rogue leaders.

2.5 million people marched through London against Britains involvement in Gulf war 2 and other marches the same day involved another 4 million people. There wishes were ignored. A price Blair is now paying at the ballot box.

A sad waste of space 'musical' combo who so despirately want to be like their musical heros they try to impersonate them and ended up being paid far more than their worth for doing it. The up shot is that in many cities bands and artists who play their own material are excluded from playing the better venues in the area because all the slots are filled by these third rate karioke clones.
"Sorry lads it's tribute bands only on the weekend" (A phrase often heard by original material musicians.)

A very potent type of rough cider. Normally associated with South West England, although the county of Kent also produces some good stuff. A good scrumpy normally has an alcohol content of atleast 7% by volume, be full of semi liquid apple pulp and taste like appley vinegar. It is suprisingly refreshing and can be consumed in vast quantities; providing the drinker does not want to use his legs for the next five hours. Was often given to wurzels in lieu of payment by landowners in an attempt to keep the works complient.
"Arrrrgghhhr yoouzzsh moi bessshhtisss mate yoush are." (a phrase often heard from the lips of scrumpy drinkers.)
