Oh lala.... ja, Twinnings is awesome. I love the English Breakfast and Earl Grey version. Red Rose isn't so bad, it's ok if you're in a hurry.

  The Brits have damn fine curries....... hmm....... hungry.

I think the secret to British tea is the Brown Betty teapot that never gets cleaned.  (alas, I don't own one..)

I have no idea what 'british' is, although when I tell a good friend of mine who's a Scot about Canadianisms, he says that's totally British thought.

The best I can think of at the moment is History related. First thing I was taught in Canadian History "When the country was founded nobody thought it would last a month." That's sooo british thinking apparently.

  [FONT color=#0000bf]I agree with you, Lise. But have you ever tried Yorkshire Pudding? In my book, that definitely comes a close second...especially when it's made as part of Toad In The Hole.[/FONT]

I must admit..... I've never tried Yorkshire pudding. I will when I get the chance. Like Michel says, there are virtually no Brit restaurants around here. Gee.... I wonder why.
