Question

Have you ever been on a holiday to a tourist destination and thought "Wow i'm soooo proud to be British".?

Answer 1

Sad to say usually the opposite, it always amazes me at how many English have little or no respect for other country's or cultures.

How many English holiday resorts are full of groups of drunken Spanish/Chinese/American tourists? not many.

The other thing that infuriates me is that once on holiday the average English man with a more than average share of beer belly thinks it perfectly acceptable to go into shops bars and restaurants subjecting us all to the sight of his hairy arm pits and flabby guts while we are eating. Wife's and girlfriends wouldn't allow their guys to walk around like this in Tescos why allow it while on holiday. Have a bit of self respect and cover up when your not on the beach.

Answer 2

Answer 3

the opposite actually. had to go to Benidorm for a week with work and was ashamed at how like Blackpool it is! luckily I didn't have to pay ; )

Answer 4

haha...oh yeah

Answer 5

Ooh yes, I think our standard of living is much higher than other places globally. I've become too accustomed to the manner in which i live

Answer 6

No, but then I am not British. If something is a tourist destination/trap - it by definition is fake and hyped to the point of silliness.

I don't judge another culture by tourism - it's not accurate. Most locals hide from tourists after all.

Answer 7

yes just glad that I'm not Grman with the towel thing

Answer 8

No just the opposite.

Answer 9

Answer 10

Not really. Alot of the UK looks like Pakistan and Somalia thanks to all the asylum seekers.  The rest of Europe is starting to look like that, such as Paris and Oslo

Answer 11

I've felt proud to be Scots/Irish but never British
