    I spell properly, but I wasn't born there and I don't live there. What does that make me? Canadian?

    Only if you love the fresh pine smell of the forests, and the taste of real maple syrup will you ever be considered Canadian... eh, wait a second...?

    Knowing how to spell "colour" means you aren't American, which is all you really need to know.

    Anyway,

    Your handlebar moustache:
    a) Makes you look ridiculous.
    b) is more important than your career.

    To be English is to have won the lottery of life. The English gentleman is the pinnacle of evolution
    We've always known the French think this, (what else could have explained De Gaulle's chippyness?) but I must say, its jolly refreshing to see they can bring themselves to say it.

    Another qu for your Am I English quiz:

    Spotted Dick is?

    a) More or less inevitable after two weeks on holiday in Faleriki
    b) nice with custard

    And a completely infallable test: if someone treads on your toe, do YOU apologise?

    I elbow them. Then look innocent.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
