Re: funny German town name
I think Britain has become a bit stale now that we've had to dismantle our empire and give people their countries back. In this modern age it's apparently seen as rude to invade another country and stick our flag on it. Plus we don't invent or build anything anymore. Back in the day we always had the new toys. Steam power, the vacum cleaner, the jet engine, the computer, and toilets. Maybe I'm out of the loop on where new stuff is coming from, but somehow it always seems to be coming from America, Japan, Germany or somewhere else.
I sometimes wonder what Britains culture is meant to be too, or what is means to other people. We still get English characters in games and media, so it seems the world hasn't exactly forgoten us yet. Though when I saw a group of assian tourists in Norwich market poseing together with a portion of fish and chips while taking pictures it really made me wonder. America and Japan are exporting culture and fun things in buckets, but I ask, what is my country offering to the world?
I supose one victory for Britain, has to be this
