Quintessentially British

[Khandro]

Can you think of one quintessentially British thing that no immigrant to the country would either feel for or understand ?

For me it might be hearing children in the distance singing, "All things bright and beautiful."

Ahh! what an old softie I am. 😢

Having someone bump into you, but you saying sorry.

Having someone walk between you and what you are looking at  in the supermarket, chemist etc and just barging past without saying sorry (unlike the US where they would say "Pardon me") This country isn't polite anymore

The smell of really sweet tea. I couldn't drink it but it smells of happy past times.

Cuecumber sandwhiches and tea.  Bread no crusts and cut into 4 triangles of course.

Heathen! Finger sarnies for the watery veg of Satan.

Tripe and onions. Jellied eels. Pigs trotters. Cabbage and ribs. A Manchester dart board.

No wonder immigrants don't wish to assimilate 10c.

Down under most learn to love a great BBQ.

Not that vomit inducing menu you posted🤮

Wow! That brings back memories, I'd forgotton about that & I'm a Mancunian.  Wasn't it smaller than the standard one?

[10ClarionSt]

A Manchester dart board; smaller than the standard dart board with no trebles and very narrow doubles, also known as a "log-ender". Still in use in a few pubs, I believe.

A BBQ? There's no better way of ruining good food than a BBQ.

05.36 isn't a BBQ a place you wait to get your haircut?

1ozzy talks about "vomit inducing things" then praises a BBQ that probably fries huge insect grubs. Oh the irony! 😄
