hello all and welcome to the thread.
not sure what to put but heres about where im from.

i live in Bradford in Yorkshire ( home of the bronte sisters)
what goes on in bradford . mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,
we have the museum of film, photography and television,
the home of morrisons supermarket and asda i think?

gareth gates and kimberly walsh out of girls aloud are both from up here.

we have the world champions of rugby league (bradford bulls)
i presume there are more curry houses than anywhere else in england.


be nice to find out where you are and what goes on.

all is pretty quiet up here at the moment
 
not a problem, do your parents have any english ancestors?
as you know anyone is free to post.
if you do have ancestors then here's a chance to learn about our customs etc.
 
my dad mom and dad are both from britan, well my mom is scotish and my dad is from durham and we where taught to use words like "jumper" and "tah" and "chips" plus spelling mom like "mum" plus my mom got all of us into "cornation street" so can i be apart, i want to learn about my harritige :)
 
Ah! MY KIND THREAD! Ive had two cups already today and it isn't even 12am yet. :lol:

And erm...what's up, fellow english! :D
 
well dont watch cori anymore its too depressing, emerdale is ok since its set not too far from where i live. eastenders is set in london.
yeah chips dont like them myself lol.
love scones tho with fresh cream omg so yummy.
welcome all.
need a cuppa now lol
 
Ah man, havent watched those soaps in literally 9 months or more. Got fed up of them. But I like Emmerdale out of them all though cos it's a cool soap..full of farmers. :p But damn too many affairs with unlikely characters bores the hell out of me. Scones goes so well with Devon Clotted Cream. *is proud to be from Devon* :rolleyes:
 
I'm not English, but it's nice to see an English thread here. So: Cheers to all the british folks!
 
...England is not British people but english. British is the union of the four countries: Wales, Scotland, Ireland and England and makes every person British by including those countries. But England on its own is not British but English! :cool:

Proud to be English but not British! Don't know why... :p
 
here here, hate the weather though cant make up its mind. and yeah clotted devon cream . mouthwatering to say the least.
 
I'm not English either, but the name of the thread just made me want to peek in and say hi (I love scones, btw :D).

For what it's worth, I'm English inside! :lol:
 
anyone on here from great yarmouth area. god i love that place.
well what to do. am bored stiff at work, nothing to do but chat on here.
kazzy do you have a fettish with farmers? my father in law has a farm lol not a working one though.
he seels the best marmalade and chutneys around.

oh i could just eat mash potatoes and braised steak.
mmmmmmmm am getting hungry now.
 
Ah cool a thread for english guys...(just a question is this for all the british or just the english..)
Anyway I'm from Buxton....(it's soo small!!) near Sheffield and Manchester.
Great thread title btw...I love tea(don't like scones as much)but I have about 3-4 cups a day(sometimes more but usually it's 3).
So hi to any other english folks around here.
 
Ah just made a brew, so I thought I would check in while sipping away..all this talk of scones and clotted ceam, could do with some just now ;)

I am English (although Gran was Scottish, and Grandad was welsh, so I suppose I'm British technically :lol:)

Just about to leave Coventry, best thing to do really have been stuck studying here for 3 years, and quite honestly it is not a nice city :rolleyes:

Main features: A concrete ringroad cum death trap, a really modern cathedral built after other was bombed in the war, and some random bridge cum statue type thing that nobody knows what it is :confused:

Oh and a lot of car factories that are going bust raising unemployment :(

Am happy to be leaving, at the end of August I become a Cambridge resident and very excited about it too :cool:

I am originally from Kidderminster, South West of Birmingham, and my folks still live there!!
That'll do for now, will come again later to say where else I have lived :rolleyes:
