Showing Original Post only (View all)Now for something completely different.. The one thing I hate about the Brits. [View all]
Toast.
I have been going to England for the last 40 years.. absolutely adore the English and Irish, Scots, and Welsh and everyone who has moved there and become part of the great noise of the British Isles.. love everything about them, including the almost impossible Welsh accent. I love London and Dublin.. you don't need to travel to another country.. London and Dublin have the world in them, every group of people you pass speak a different language, it is thrilling to be there.
You go to the countryside, and you feel like you are in a PBS special.. so beautiful.. and the greatest graffiti ever when you travel by train.. it covers everything.. it is an art form there
But the toast.. dry little triangles of bread, usually cold sitting in a little metal toast holder, that no amount of butter or jam or orange marmalade is going to reconstitute..
Now if that is the worst complaint anyone can ever say about you, then pat yourself on the back.. and you will get through this Brexit hell.. love you too pieces you wonderful islands of cold toast and hot tea..
