I just have a question after reading this :

Do the British have gun ?

(Sorry, I am not sure)

[Gunrunner]

What, they have no guns, but how can they defend against drone piloting neighbours and unarmed black people ? Shows how uncivilized and backward they are.

Having been to England thrice in my lifetime, Scotland twice, I can say that he nailed it pretty good.

 

Headed back for a vacation next summer.

I had more fun working with the Brits when I was in the AF. Man did we all tip back a few.

It's possible to own shotguns and rifles. Handguns were banned about 20 years ago, but there are still plenty about, if you know the right(wrong) people.

Of course, this being the UK, if you let your legally owned gun off in your back yard and damage said drone that's watching you sunbathe naked, you go to jail, all your guns are confiscated and you have to compensate the drone's pilot for the damage...

 

I'd like to challenge the Author to eat a Yorkshire Pudding and see if he thinks that's a dessert

The crazy thing about this, is that comparatively, I'm learning here much more things about the mentalities and habits of the Transatlantic weird species than about my neighbours at Albion. So happy once more I feel to be a Western European!

 

One could add about England: "Always wins rugby contests, when not facing Taffies, Aussies, or anything with more than one leg."
