I am Australian from a British family about 4 generations ago. I'm Irish no less, and am a European citizen through the Czech Republic.

I can sit on a seat at Heathrow arrivals (got 5 right). Damn! I hate Heathrow, Gatwick is so much nicer!

I got a seat at Heathrow, which is unsurprising considering that the British portion of my ancestry arrived in Virginia as indentured servants sometime in the eighteen century.

You lads are as Pommily integrated as one might jolly well assume! Splendidly spiffing! I'm fascinated by your elaborate, fantastic results! And I saw far too many Monty Python and Secret Policeman's Ball shows!

When my Grandmother's family moved to Australia (she was born there), her older sister called her older brother a "Pommy Pig", for being born in England. So that was our last English characteristic: Dead Great Uncle Bill.

I visit an American family every week almost; what is astonishing is that every time they offer me tea and I politely accept Earl Grey or English Breakfast I am asked whether or not I want it wit milk.

Apparently, the mother in the family has milk with it.
