Last time I went abraod to France - the true English man wore a knotted handkerchief, had a bag o chips in one hand and a permenent lager can in the other until the discovery of Bacofoil.

The Scotsman had bottle of Scotch, a haggis and you heard him coming by the fart of his bagpipes.

The Irishman never knew what to do and if he was given two shovels and was told to take is pick he went by Air Fungus

Lol yeah a few weeks ago i thought i was being clever going round via Goole but the extra distance cost me more in fuel that the toll would have done + there was a small toll bridge that way anyway . That'll teach me giggle
