It srtrikes me that the lists are definitely "English"...and I always say I'm english.....britishness, whatever that was, is on the decline (I think it existed as part of the 'empire' and pulling together in the war etc) in general - but I also believe that black and british is more commonly used than black and english, say. Gordon and the Labour party are of course petrified of the rise of Englishness as the Scots and Welsh have way kicked above their weight in terms of politicians and PMs inspite of the fact that whatever goes wrong in Wales and Scotland seems to get blamed on 'english politicians'...I'd happily have an independent England...
Brendan...that's cos British culture is an aggregate, so includes Welsh, Scotch and Cornish...if it was solely English we'd clearly be more cultured than you
DM -I'm not a religous man, a glass of Krug rasied in an east London directionish, you wouldn't have to look - after all from the village it's towards Peckham- and a "good old quids" would have done.... PS whilst the scaffoldings up would you have a look at the pointing on my chimney?

But Sean it's not yours or mine it's a forum...it's not the Lodge (as it tried to be) it's the EDT...anyone can come and go and that's interwebby thing at its best with all the downsides...it's a big noisy pub now.. to illustrate the Lounge is clocking up a post a minute at the moment which means you can sit and post on here continoulsy if you want ...that's a pretty recent development but I guess it's lost some of its more considered and thought out posts
No, that was different, I remember that too. This bloke (white) was found shot outside PRH in the early hours... er, for clarification the PRH was very, very different back then..
As Sean points out, right or wrong, and maybe on this particular thread ,tastlessly, there are a lot of posters who look for a bite plus maintain a bit of ongoing banter...it's not quite the bed of elitist Nazi's that you worthy types believe...
