If you ever want to realise why you love the US, try our version of Froot Loops, they're loving atrocious. US ones are basically like eating a bowl of sugar and colourings and are amazing. Ours are poop in comparison.

You're allowed to drink in a pub, as I recall, but not to be intoxicated. I think the parliament thing is a myth, too. There was a thing the MoJ put around a year or two ago, but I can't find it now.

If you die in parliament you get a state funeral so if you look a bit peaky they carry you out to die in the gutter like the paup you are

IDK they were both in an article on the beeb saying that they were still true

the dumb "it's legal to shoot a welshman with a crossbow if you're in chester" etc. ones are all myths, but we do have a few genuinely weird laws (like the handling salmon in a suspicious manner)

As above, turns out they're both untrue, as per the Law Commission. It is illegal to wear armour in parliament, however.

What does that mean kevlar and stuff as well, or full plate mail?

Actually I would've loved it if Cameron had come out to PMQs in full plate when those pig fucker allegations were doing the rounds.

Got thoroughly wasted at the 90th birthday party. Had a pint of Premiere which I think is one of the best beers I've ever tasted. Then later had many many rounds of single malt scotch. Going to a carver later for food. Had a sausage butty for breakfast. Yesterday was bacon. Enjoying the Midlands so far. Back to London Towne tomorrow.

if you enjoy your beer by the half-litre I can recommend Holsten pils. coming from Australia I found the beer selection in the average off-licence to be a revelation. getting drunk is most of the reason I stay here.

lol does that even still exist? I can't remember seeing any in the last ten years, but then again it might just be that they stopped spending £1bn a year on advertising

yeah it's a staple in my off-licence. it's one of the £1 cans. while it's garbage by european standards it's fantastic compared to the swill that passes for beer in Australia.

You do, but different and somehow very slightly closer to actual Mexican food. See the thing I posted for instance.

They certainly do cheese and onion and several other flavours that were depicted in that image. But maybe not in every market.
