    A video containing day-time TV adverts. Ocean Finance, Accident lawyers and all that. At this moment in time there is NOTHING more British.

    I wonder if I can find a postcard that depicts a scene of a bloke in a bowler hat and a frumpy woman having a picnic in a green field full of cows. The picnic consists of scones with clotted cream and raspberry jam. Complete with Earl Grey tea of course! A classic Mini parked neatly nearby...

    How nostalgic.

    Or would the modern version of that postcard be an ASBO-convicted crowd of lads and ladettes puking up on a High Street on a Friday night, fag in one hand a and a can of Fosters in the other. Half-eaten Doner Kebabs, syringes and used condoms littering the street as a police van pulls up to arrest them.

    Bottle of white lightening, dvd of 'trisha'

    Bottle of pimms and a dvd of Blackadder or fawlty towers.

    That should show the social divide

    I think you said UAE, not sure if you can take alcohol in. Check first. Some Gulf states don't allow it.

    If not it's Tetley tea and Nescafe
