ok what do people think of us english? what are we famous for? what is every ones over all conseption?

Question

of us brits?
no one from england answer this question

Answer 1

what a strange question
the assumption that people from elsewhere have such generalised way of thinking - perhaps that is a british trait - or perhaps just one individual.

Answer 2

There's so many reasons why I love the Poms and England. To start with the rich history (good and bad), the architecture, the tube, The Two Ronnies, Little Britain, Pork Pies, Yorkie Pudding, Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, Bangers and Mash, Trifle, The Office, Extras, William Shakespeare, Yeats, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bros, Pints and chips, and last by not least Absolutely Fabulous.

But most of all I love UK trance, hard house, Phil Reynolds, Brixton Academy, Global Gathering, and other such wonderful dance parties!!!

You can laugh at yourselves and everyone else. There's something about the English sense of humor that just makes me laugh so much that I have to make a mad dash to the loo.

You guys rock...

Answer 3

The good bits...Intelligent, well mannered, fancy english. Thats all from before I came here, after being here a year, I have changed my mind set. But Overall brits are looked at in a good light. I wont mention the bad things, because thats just a hand full of people and Britain as a nation can not be judged by how people see those peoples actions.Oh and the fish and chips... I dont like it lol I have had better, I think Britain is more well know of the Monarchy than anything else.

Answer 4

Without the English imprint on Christianity the world would be a very dark place indeed. I greatly admire the proper word that we hear in rapid British speech. I could wish the Isles had the wonderful middle class lifestyle back from the late 19th century. Where did all the Nabob wealth go? It produced some of the richest literature I have ever read.

Answer 5

We're counting on you to uphold the standards of proper behavior, old chap. We love your accent, and would watch your entertainers for the accent alone. Your movies seem to be plotless and some of your humor inexplicable, but Keeping up Appearances and Monty Python are hilarious. Your support of freedom in Iraq has raised our respect to love and trust. If you ever feel attacked from the outside, we'll be right over. If you're feeling overrun from the inside, quit whining and vote for tighter immigration laws! I do wish you could understand that Henry VIII did not get the franchise on God, that He Himself was never up for sale. Once you understand how God loves you, you might realize that we'd probably give our lives again for you, too. -- Crazy aboutcha, A Yank (My niece's name, and one of the most popular girl's names over here is, Brittany!)

From Malta
Brits are ( maybe they use to be ) our best customers as after you serve them they always say thank you and very nice and they come again........ ...even if what you sold to them was not that great. And i said they use to be as Even the Brits are in recession but they still are our best costumers. And friends. 3 cheers for the Brits.........********
