I wish I wasn't so sensitive about causing offence (there he goes - English to the last). Some of these e-mails are just crying out for the devastating (if politically incorrect) response.

Sod it, it's my 100th post - I can do what I like. With apologies for using a stereotype, which I don't believe but wish to exploit solely for my own amusement...QuoteSurely no-one's going to make a claim for the Scots as the great lovers of the world?Or the Welsh I don't believe its the world that the Welsh love.

You can take the survey yourself to see the choices. "Nationality" is a choice from a list of 52, which doesn't make much sense. Only "United Kingdom" is available, not Scot or Welsh (but Ireland can be chosen). By listing countries rather than nationalities, it is not clear if you should fill in your residence or ethnicity. Some countries are split, Canadians for example can choose "eng" or "fr" and Belgians can be "fr" or "nl" (but Swiss, South Africans, Chinese and citizens of a Russian Federation, with more dramatic internal divisions, cannot). Other, much larger, countries are combined such as all of Latin America (but tiny Middle Eastern principalities like Qatar, UAE and Oman have their own selection). Many good sized countries are not listed at all, even in a regional option.

QuoteI didn't know sheep can make firebombsIf they can, there may be some Welsh nationalists that have been falsely imprisoned. Is firebombing particularly rife in New Zealand?
