It would appear that we can't get on with anyone.... might be something to do with fact we used to claim other peoples lands by planting a flag in a local natives chest ;D ;D ;D

To be honest, if we hadn't found them the rest of the world wouldn't know some of them existed.

Not to mention all the ex colonies who've been bequethed the bedrock of democracy and administration to channel their frustration at being former states of the empire. :)

And railways. :)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

As indicated, once upon various times and from diffferent origins, the British invaded the one they're in, the one by which they're named...


aaaand the US owes money to probably every country.
Actually, a number of them never paid us back...
