I've recently had one of my beliefs about the British shot to hell.
I've always held the belief that Brits love to garden. Even if it's just a plant in the window.
A nice couple bought the house across the street maybe 3 months back. He's British, she's American.
The house was was of those completely remodeled modernized jobs, so had a good base structure. Nothing was done as far as landscaping...let it to the new homeowners I guess.
During the Spring, when all the neighbors and myself were out tilling and planting...their house remained a mess of weeds...
2 days ago, I saw Martin cutting down the weeds on the ENTIRE lawn...with a weed whacker...jesus.
He drives a porshe carrera, and she has some fru fru business selling cosmetics, so it's not like they couldn't go buy some boxwoods.
I also believe most Brits love love love dogs....Martin doesn't have any pets.
Other than that, I don't think I have an image of any particular Britan being any particular way...too many variables, different living conditions (city, country, apts, houses) different regional accents.
I'll think about it.
Oh! Here's one. I don't think British people take organized religion very seriously. I mean in that I see the people as basically moral and good, but they don't make a big production about it. I see that as a very good thing.
