Oh dear it seems that we are incapable of making comparisons without it being stereotypes and agendas to the fore.
As it happens their are some lovely parts of Britain which i would happily live in, their are also parts i would no doubt avoid. It goes without saying this is true of Ireland and the world. The British are on the whole very welcoming and apear to like the Irish ,though some do still think we all ride Donkeys and drink and dance at the drop of a hat. (for this you may partially blame the adverts we send out to attract them here)
I have to say I quite loved the south west, beautiful country with lovely villages and they do a cream on scones with jam to die for. (i had a luvy moment)
I also like France and Germany, But its harder to get their with cycles and kit.
I sometimes wonder about some of the anti brits on this site- not the troles their just pointless, but the otherwise Intelligent ones, How can they live next door to a place visit it no doubt, yet cling to so many stupid fixed knee jerk beliefs, Incomprehensible and a little pathetic.

Oh if anyone knows if the cream they use (clotted!) is available here let us know.
