    Sweden fucking rocks. Start being proud! What isn't cool about it? Saab are from there.

    I am British, and proud of this. I am from Essex, and not proud of this though.

    I'm Greek -one of the only two (that I know of).

    What was the OP talking about? That made as much sense as "If you see my sheep, tell them I'm looking for them so they'll come tell me where they are, so I can go find them."

    Thanks! It's from a theatrical play I once watched, actually. :D

    The other one is Kelly, she posts now and then. There's also two of my friends, Sugoruyo and Katsman, but they only stayed for a day or so each.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but Sweden sucks from the inside. Every single flaw is sort of lighted up if you live here.

    I'd give you a list, but it'd be too large.

    The weather... is pathetic.
    The language? Despicable and foul!
    The people? Disregarding the ladies, everyone are rude and there are immigrants as far as the eye can see (very narrow-minded of me, I know :p).

    And my second excuse for not giving you the entire list is that I have to have dinner now.

    :lol: Sounds rather like living here mate.

    What you have to remember is... "The grass is always greener on the other side." - Stop finding flaws, and remember htere are far worse places to live, and that there is plenty of good from where you are!

    Hell, it could be France! :nervous:

    I'm Scottish. Not British. Not ever.
    I'm European, though. Though not so much as I would be if I was French.

    You'd rather regard yourself as European than British?

    Like it or not, you Scots are British.

    Yeah, I know I am. I've just never seen myself as British. Just haven't. I mean, I've got English and Irish blood in me, so I sure as hell am British.
    Just don't feel like it. British these days tends to mean English, anyway.

    True, that. If a sportsman who is Scottish wins an event, he is "British". If he loses, he is "Scottish".

    My point ~exactly~

    Tis always the line of argument that I use! I :heart: you for at least realising the trueness of my statement.

    Mr Coulthard is Scottish. As is Andy Murray. As is the entire Scottish rugby team.

    I thank you, please.

    No, Coultard is only Scottish when he loses. :p

    He's a rubbish driver anyway.

    No, he's Scottish. And he should always be Scottish, is the point I was trying to make.

    Back in the day... Oh back in the day... He was the man. Oh yes, he was the man.

    And when I win the Eurovision Song Contest next year for the UK, I hope you all remember that I'm from SCOTLAND. Aye.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The Commonwealth Games split the UK up into its constituent countries, but the Olympics and most other tournaments don't. So Coulthard and Murray are British, unless they are competing specifically for Scotland in a competition that recognises Scotland as separate from Great Britain.

    I wish the UK was more united, but it seems the Welsh and the Scots don't like associating with England. I can understand why because they are both much smaller countries and like to maintain an identity, but some of the bile directed at the English is nothing more than racism.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The lucky thing for Northern Irish people is that they can choose to be either British or Irish. I have an Irish passport, I write Irish for Nationality on forms or whatnot. It's some sort of legal loopehole or something.

    Coultard was at the top of his career at the same time as Hakkinen, so badl uck for him! As well, he has a Hotel to run too.

    You should enter Eurovison with the Scottish flag. And sing in gaelic. Yes, do it.

    I think the UK should enter Motorhead tbh though.

    I class myself as English, British, European and Ashingtonian hehe.

    My passport says I'm British. I'm Irish though and could have an Irish passport if I wanted, like Turlough

    I loved watching an interview with Andy Murray when he first became big. The guy was like "So what does it feel like to be England's next big tennis hope?" to which he replied "Well, I'm not English, I'm Scottish, so I dunno how you figured that one." :D

    If Scotland entered Eurovision there is only one choice for the entrants. The Proclaimers.


    Proclaimers in Eurovision = FLAWLESS VICTORY!!!!

    And there would certainly be a FATALITY!!!!! as I'd shoot myself if I had to hear yet another drunken Scot shout about walking 500 miles.....

    "Da Da Da Dun Diddle Un Diddle Un Diddle Uh Da Da"

    *gunshot*
