BRILLIANT!
SO WONDERFULLY BRITISH. . . . . . English Stiff Upper Lip.
On a train from London to Manchester to watch the cricket, an Australian was berating the Englishman sitting across from him in the compartment.
"You English are too stuffy. You set yourselves apart too much. You think your stiff upper lip makes you above the rest of us. Look at me. . . . I'm ME! . . . . . .
I have Italian blood, Greek blood, a little Irish blood, and some Aborigine blood. What do you say to that?"
The Englishman replied,
"Awfully sporting of your Mother, old chap!"
OH that's a beauty...I love it.

How do you see through an Englishman ?
Look thru his ears.
Brits often have the upper hand when dealing with Aussies, I remember when in an England- Australia test match there was some serious "sledging" going on and the Oz wicket-keeper said to Mike Gatting (the fairly portly batsman)
" Hey Gatts, you're getting really fat............."
Gatting replied..
" Yeah, every time I go round and shag your missus she gives me a biscuit" (that's a cookie)
Thanks for the laughs, guys, the politics is getting old and even the religion is getting stale!!
