Be careful that you don't wear any of your nice shiny polished steel or two tone watches outside:

I'd loved to say I'm incredulous but sadly, after living in this country since birth, I'm actually not surprised at all by this.

and make fun of the hard-working Breitling lovers :wink:

I couldn't agree more. The UK's become a poorly run, uneducated, chav invested dump. While at the same time becoming a Big Brother / nanny state of epic proportions where "offenses" such as overfilling your recycling bin has become a bigger crime than hit-and-run (well, nearly!).

God knows why so many people want to come here. I'm pretty sure the only people who do are those who've never actually been here before!

(Hmmmmm, think I might move this thread to "Off-Topic" now!)

This kind of thing makes me embarrased to be British - just another example of what is wrong with this once great country! :(
