WHAT IS QUINTESSENTIALLY ENGLISH?
by Dansk inthis is actually something that fascinates me and i'd like your own opinions on the subject.
i list here things i feel are quintessentially english (with apologies to the scots, welsh and irish as they have their own uniqueness).. first of all, it's got to be a cup of tea (yes, i know it wasn't originally made here, but it has become an integral part of 'englishness').. cup of tea.
cricket.

I gave up a career in Broadcasting, lost great friends, nearly lost my sense of humour, most of all lost my sanity.

I like what you said Ian. You sound like my parents. They always looked at the positive side of life despite what difficulties are throwed at us, and they encouraged my brothers and I to be the same. This has helped me a lot. i still have a silly sense of humour although my life is quite awful at present.
