Errrr apart from my family and friends who live in the UK nothing...I wouldn't live here if I had the choice. Much preferred other countries I have lived in.

Hi Col,

If I am in another country and someone asks my nationality ,I always say I'm BRITISH never English
Why because I have a British passport.

Now as for top ten things about my country are there any left ???

Irrespective of your country of either birth or residency what are the top ten things that make your country great? For me being English first then British and sorry but never European the ten best things about England for me are:

1.The countryside from throbbing cities to wild remote coast
2.The press - a lot of it total drivel but also free
3.The weather - yep the variety and the seasons
4.The police (despite the few bad apples) doing a tough job
5.The people who largely live in harmony irrespective of relgious or cultural differences
6.My flag
7.The armed services - the best in the world
8.The arts from cinema to theatre
9. Sterling NEVER EVER make me use Euro's
10. The fact that I'm not French (lol last ones a joke)
