Very funny....
I got this in an email, enjoy:
 One of the British national daily newspapers is asking readers "what it means to be British?". Some of the emails are hilarious but this is one from a chap in Switzerland ... "Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry, a Chinese meal, or a Turkish kebab on the way, to drink Colombian coffee, sit on Swedish furniture & watch American shows on a Japanese TV. And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of anything foreign." |

Very true - except kebabs as we tend to eat them today (ie donner meat in pita bread with a tonne of salad and sauce) are German, not turkish

The döner kebab with salad and sauce served in pita, which is predominant in Germany and the rest of the world, was invented in Berlin-Kreuzberg in 197
