I do beg to differ, I do ride a Japanese motorcycle, most of the world does too. I am tee total, I can't stand garlic and that kicks curry out of the door, I love British cuisine and I love American Squirrels even if most of us on here do not. My whole surviving family live in Germany and they call me the 'Inselaffe' lol, I'm proud of that one! I havn't got a TV or smartphone, or a Spanish holiday home, I'd love a beach hut on the Thames estuary though, most of my furniture is British or at least made here. OK...is being British being a monkey on a CB400f2?  ;D
I brake for animals!

OK,


I am NOT British I am ENGLISH no matter what my surname is.

The family has 2 Japanese 4 wheelers and i havea few Japanese bike because they are reliable, even if the 18 yr old Mitsi has just had its first gremlin!

I eat Chinese cos it tastes good (without chilies)and have more respect for my anus than to introduce burning spices.

If that makes me a grumpy old fart so be it

Not the only famous Jones of the moment.



Just been listening to the title track on the Radcliffe and Maconie show.

As a 15 year old, that had a similar effect on me as my first ride on a mate’s 500/4

Although my post does not apply to anyone on here (My car is a Ford, I have a holiday retreat built near Hull situated on the East coast, I love roast beef and a pint of bitter and like to be called an Englishman), the post probably applies to 60% or more of this countries occupants. I also fall into the Grumpy Old Git section of society with tee-shirts to prove it, but I am proud of my country.
