A Message From Her Majesty The Queen...

[Stijloor]

Two roundabouts within 200 yards of each other :mg:

Just be glad you don't live in the UK or you might have deal with 5 small roundabouts that surround one large roundabout.

Driving left, in this maze? Unbelievable....:mg:
A traffic math problem...

Stijloor.

As part of this British "re-absorption," can we expect any of the following?

• CCTV cameras on every street, in every store, in every store dressing room, in every public toilet, in every private toilet, shower, and bath
• the Queen will pawn the crown jewels to help reduce the enormous debt that will be taken on as part of the re-absorption of the USA and converting them to colonies
• bloody riots at "football" games, instigated by rowdies fueled by British beer
• national identity cards with biometic information
• soldiers wearing uniforms with plaid skirts
• soldiers wearing headgear made from endangered animal species
• "public" schools which are really private schools

Seems to work for them....
P.S. It was just a joke....

Let me reiterate that one part...

such changes are happening beneath our noses.

That's nothing - as a proud Englishman I feel I have to point you guys in the direction of Birmingham's famous spaghetti junction

That picture looks like Los Angeles Freeway system. Nothing new to me.

That looks like a hurricane spawning tornados.

Some other changes that are coming:

- buddy -> bloke
- gas -> petrol
- truck -> lorry
- gage -> gauge
- drug traffickers -> highwaymen
- "you guys" -> chaps

And one I have never understood "are you pulling my leg" becomes "taking the pi$$". Let' all learn cockney rhyming slang

I was going to give it a shot by studying "My Fair Lady", but after reading this, I'm not so sure I am up for that....

Ahhh....at last!!! Real football, and readily accessible chips. Although the smokey bacon crisps will fit into the regularly scheduled snack breaks quite nicely.

Other items that will make life easier to deal with:

1. Robinson's Barley Water
2. Ribena
3. Turkish Delight
4. Quality bangers (sausages people...get your minds out of the gutter)

During this transition, could we please ensure no Welsh road signs make it over here...You can't even read the damn things.
