Now I don''t even know what you''re talking about. Nevermind I suppose. Right now, I''m in a state of mind where I really like the english. Even though many of your people may not like or agree with Mr. Blair right now, at least he has some guts and goes with his beliefs, rather than following on pulic opinion. Unlike other world leaders (think patte and funny hats), who would rather squirm their way out of a situation than to face it, right or wrong.

I like Mr. Tea. With lots of milk.
Yup Tetley Tea - I drink lots of the stuff

Chip Barm is Northen English dialect, possibly even North Western:

Chips = like fries, but about double the width and more wholesome tasting (hard to describe the difference). We put salt & vinegar on them. (Never did quite get used to remulade, too much salt and no vinegar when I was in Denmark )

Barm = Barm Cake = A round, soft bread bun, with a semi hard outer case, similar to a standard burger bun just a little softer and larger. Called things like "Bap" and "Muffin" in other regions.

Boddies = Boddingtons Bitter. (Not the same as what the Scandinavians call bitter). A smooth, creamy beer drink which comes from Manchester (http://www.boddingtons.com). The bee in the logo is also the icon for Manchester. Actually I personally drink lager or Jack Daniels more often. Or tea, coffee, coke, milk etc otherwise.
