I feel lucky for being Welsh, or perhaps you meant feeling lucky to be British? Not all of the natives of Britain are English you know.

I was born in London, but I dont feel particularly 'lucky'. I dont need a visa to go to the USA, so I guess thats a plus.

I consider myself to be quite lucky to have grown up in this country.
1. Top-notch education
2. Excellent services i.e. Police, amubulance, fire etc
3. Democracy
4. Safe
The points of which i have just outlined are compared to other countries.

Yes, until I meet other English people. Then I normally feel a bit sad.

Yes. Because we have the richest language there is, and don't have to learn it as a second language.
That does not make us superior....just fortunate.
PS And, probably, the best cheese (though the French might dispute it)
