When we visited England we loved:
Fish and Chips in York.
Strongbow Cider on tap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The accent (after 10 days I even started to imitate it like a foppish American.)
Ancient castle ruins around every corner.
Fuzzy sheep.
Burger King along the M1.
English Breakfast.
Pub meals.
Things we HATED:
The price of Petrol.
Black pudding. Come on that's just disgusting.
Driving on the left side of the road.
Indian food.
Leaving.
Guy Fawlkes (spelling?)
Cute little cars in England
KIPPERS for breakfast!

A similar discussion to this one is on another board (Football based) I am following. I thought this answer was quite funny.
“To be British is to drive a German car to an Irish themed pub to drink continental lager, to leave and pick up an Indian curry, Chinese rolls, Turkish kebab or Italian pizza. Then return home and watch American TV programmes on a Japanese set while talking about footballers from across the globe.
And the other thing about being British?
Suspicious of anything foreign.”
And the other thing about being British?
Ah, but this is about being ENGLISH!
