Who said it was a joke? Much of East Anglia is under sea level. It wouldn't take much to do everyone in the UK a favour and sink it. I really doubt the region of old man pub dwelling ale drinkers and ******ed farmers could engineer themselves out of a gentle rise in sea levels, nor would they be able to cope with a swift invasion. If anyone is holding the UK back it is Norfolk, if it wasn't for Alan Partridge nobody would even know your horrible, useless region existed.
And the miserable ****s don't even know what a "round" is. Their idea of social drinking is buying your own.
That caught me out my first time drinking with English colleagues. We all went to the boozer, I got a round in and was pleasantly surprised about how gracious they were when I asked what they wanted and handed them their drinks. I was less pleasantly surprised when they all proceeded to buy their own after that.
In London you don t get much change from a £5 for a pint, i only buy rounds for people i like..... If you are in, you may even get a cheeky line of chang too....
The price is irrelevant you tight git. It's the same price for everybody in the round. Or are you one of these ****s that has a nice brandy on somebody else's round and goes without on your own? Or one of those utter ****s that calculate when to get your first round in so you get the most rounds bought for you and minimise the rounds you buy; ie. the **** that always goes last. I ****in hate those ****s.
