Beans are OK for breakfast.

and they have a "thing" about tea...

 

go figure  ;)

English people prefer to be called english, rather than british (but we don't take offense cause we have a stiff upper lip lol)

Streaky bacon is not ok, find an english shop pronto :)

We covered tea already.

 

I'm sure I can add to this later....

Again. Lookout for a crazy egg in a black Ford pickup driving on the wrong side of the road.  :P

Learn how to make a pork pie.

Pissed has nothing to do with angry....

I feel the tea needs further explantion

 

for good news, celebrate with a brew

for bad news, sit with a cuppa and talk it through

for a shock, add sugar

 

For Tracey, sub for wine after the yard arm has passed :)  Girl after my own heart!!

Don't ask about wearing the pants!!

The is safe here I don't like them lol but scotch eggs now we are taking :)

The woman is always right and yes dear is a preferred answer ;)

That is universal

LMAO!!!

 

Most of this stuff I knew already except the "Scottish eggs" but I think I will be finding out!

 

#1 tool in my tool box is ......................."YES DEAR"

 

You will not survive without it!

 

#2 tool in my tool box is......................"Yes you are right"

 

If #1 does not work!

 

#3 tool in my tool box is...................... secret B)

Not used to ice cold beer; Tracey likes wine, so may be a non-issue.

I'm not a beer fan either,

 

I like my Jack and cokes or wine and so does she!

 

Same page there lol

3. in toolbox---giving up is ok

 

what if figured out about islanders

• they talk funny
• their sports are funny
• they drive funny
• their food taste funny
• the men dress funny
• the chicks are .......

I thinks its a big circus or clown school  everything they do makes me laugh, like its wrong and they know it but still do it anyways. I watch their movies ten times to hear them talk. it cracks me up the comments they make. not dummies, very witty

 

the queen thing is weird too, but we got our sport stars which is worse when you look at the trouble they get into. maybe if we had a moral example like prince Charles and his life long affair with a big nosed chick, then our president wouldn't get happy endings

 

I like they got the Royal navy. Do they got a regular one too?

Its the Royal Air Force too hence RAF :) -  because top royals get to join a service and have lots of shiny new medals for parades, which they didnt earn!

 

prince wiliam and harry are the exception

 

Price charles wears his airborne wings - which means he jumped out a plane - but he never has done the night drop as its too dangerous for a future king (this gripes me)

 

yep if witt was poop we would be constipated :)

scotch eggs:

 

hard boiled egg

surrounded by sausage meat

covered in bread crumbs

You can do the same replacing sausage with black pudding.....hmmmmmm....

dont think rez will go anywhere near black pudding ever again - i made him try it and it was hilarious!! I dont like it either :)

I took a bite of that black pudding (crap) and yuk!!!!

 

I should of figured because Tracey was not having any and kept telling me to try it lol

 

Still not sure about this scotch egg thing

 

I love the beans and mushrooms at breakfast, took a bit to get used too, about 2 minutes!

Black Pudding is beautiful...

 

Blood is good.

 

English Blood is best :vampire:

A biscuit is a cookie.

      Seriously when I was over there in the stores, people dressed, acted and looked the same as here in the states, only real difference was the accents and the meanings of some words. The brands are different in the stores and of coarse the currency too. The landscape was the same in most places as i'm used to here but lots of windmills, they are everywhere and the UK is very good about going green, they do not waste like we do here.

 

   One thing i love is the architecture, beautiful built buildings hundred of years old with so much detailing. Over here, we tear them down after 100 years and rebuild new, over there they renovate the building as to keep that traditional look, very cool! Biggest difference is of coarse the cars and roads, very few stop signs and street lights where we were, lots of round abouts,(think of Chevy Chases European Vacation movie lol) but very cool again!

 

   I will be going back to London again sometime in the future, beautiful traditional city with new modern buildings going up every where. Love the culture but very expensive at least downtown where we were but so worth it! First time out of the county and best time i ever had and the best tour guide i could ever want. Will always remember my May 2014 trip to the UK!

"Streaky bacon" ????

",(think of Chevy Chases European Vacation movie lol"

 

Look kids... Big Ben... Parlament.
