Ouch, Onoj, harsh. As for the English stereotype it isn't entirly false. My religion doesn't allow me to drink tea, and when I went to England this summer if anything was even slightly wrong I was offered a cup of tea. I felt bad turning them down all the time sweatdrop

Well nobody in my family drinks tea. Neither do many people I know of... sweatdrop

@Onoj: Very true. 3nodding ...Just in a less exaggerated way.

Well don't get me wrong I adored England. But I had to suffer many stereotypes to. Since I'm from Utah and LDS I got a lot of questions like "Where are your horns?" (I don't have any) and "How many wives does your dad have?" (One, just like he's supposed to). So, it kinda worked both ways. I had to get over some of my English stereotypes and they had to get over their Mormon ones *shrug*.

Um...Essex I think. I was about an hour from London by car and there were trains (I'd never ridden on a train or bus before then...just so you know your busses are terrifying eek ) you could take. We also went up to Wales and I got see castles and stuff. It was great fun 3nodding

Indeed.

My mom thinks all Irish drink nonstop and all Catholics drink nonstop,
and that all Catholics are Irish.
