cigarettes at the front.
Only in Britain... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a DIET coke.
Only in Britain... do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters.
Only in Britain... do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.
Only in Britain... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to
talk to in the first place.
Only in Britain... are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.

Yes Dodge, how I laughed.
Our Lawnmower was stolen not once but twice from the garage! The car was always safe!
I have often been curious at my husbands need to 'test' batteries with his tongue, I guess it really is simple stupidity afterall, always thought it
now I have the figures to back it up.
Why do I find myself using a knife instead of a screwdriver? My hubby was the last to see any screwdriver alive. Everytime I stash one he finds it and
into the abyss it goes!! (I can find the tool BOX it's just the tools I have difficulty in locating)......
Now I'm going to get myself a REALLY good stash place, let me think...ahh yes next to the washing machine.......He'll never find anything
there........lols
