Yeah love the French! ... er, no don't love them ... leave their asses alone! especially in my presence! With their snails and frogs penis's, they say that they're legs but we know the truth! We hate you French people, WE HATE YOU! *cough*

Go England, how about that? England is well technically in Europe, but you know, we don't have the euro and poop so yeah ... I'd rather be our own continent to be fair.

Ah Go Europe. Its a bit unfair to not include the French, since they have Disneyland and you can bring loads of fun explosives home which you cant really buy over here lol

Hahaha, well its good way to evaluate a country, as it makes England the best country in the world as it is the country with the most theme parks per square mile [:D]

"Hieght/building restrictions anyone?"

Without them, Nemesis would not exist, God Bless the Alton residents ... then at the same time, DAMN THEM TO HELL FOR AL ETERNITY! *cough*

Remember, a ride doesn't have to be 23875356386545ft tall to make it fun ... its just helps thats all [lol]

Having said that, there is only construction restrictions on a couple of parks, parks such as Thorpe park and Blackppol PB don't have that problem and if the people who ran them were as rich as you buggaring Americans, then England would have rides like some American and European rides.

England is not a decent country, its crap ... just the people in it are good, whereas with other countries naming no names *cough*AMERICA*cough* are great countries but the people ... weeeeell, I dunno [lol] joke.

lol, yeah i was gonna say exactly wot u said Gouldy. Nemmey came out of that height restriction thing, so it cant be all bad. And its also on the way to getting us a woody with a 200 foot drop into a valley, theres only a few american rides thta compete with that.

Alos England rules, and Holland to Dirk. lol. And excuse me, lol, Greece is really nice actually, i go there quite alot, its my fave country apart from England, and america is me 3rd. lol. (only cos of the coasters)

Yeah and dats not all the parks in Greece either Dirk, i have been to one called magic land or summat. It was pretty good, although the ride ops cant speak english, and i cudnt do me seatbelt up on the swings and couldnt ask him to do it, so the ride stretd but i luckily managed to do it myself! lol.

Neither can you, "summat","cos","dats" aaaaaahaha [lol] joke.

I want to start a petition about the UK leaving the EU, because to be fair, I've been to Germany *Shudders* and I really don't know if I want to be associated with "that". I've even been to France, Please please PLEASE don't remind me of that ever again, God if it wasn't for the cheap booze I think I would have killed myself. And don't even get me started on the whole Euro currency thing, eurgh.

All those in favour of the UK becoming its own continent (as log as trading, importing and exporting wouldn't be affected haha) ... say AYE!

Yea, Gouldy, England and Germany being in the same continent is quite a joke, and Russia and England are in the same continent too, geez. That would be like Canada being in the same country as Mexico or something, lol. Maybe UK, should switch with Mexico that would be cool. I'd love to have England in the same Continent as the US, though then would the US have tea breaks and play cricket?

Alright, back on topic, I'm from the United States, I have relatives in Filand as well though, and some of my heritage lies in the UK, which IMO is a very nice country(your very welcome gouldy), as it has nice people AND amazing golf courses. Oh, and some nice rollercoasters as well.

Nope, because people in England don't do that either. If you can find anyone on this website from England that even likes cricket then then ... I'll do nothing but yeah, you get my point. I like tea a little, but its not like its the only thing we drink here, its been at least a month since I last had a cup of tea. Drink more beer than anything else [:P]

Americans sterotype the UK for being sophisticated and posh (ha, these people havnt heard of Manchester, Sheffield, Liverpool..i could go on) Whereas people from the UK would sterotype americans as being fat and stupid. My point is that hardly any of this is true, sure you get the dickhead patriotic americans once in a while but the same can be said in the UK. If someone came from America to visit a town such as Manchester, they would class Compton as kindergarten (i love saying that word, kindergarten..whats wrong with reception, reception makes more sense as its your first your of school, kindergarten some kind of garden of children?) Oh, the American sterotype of London i find funny, any American film which is suposed to be set in England always has some retarded character talking like 'whats all this then?' and a paper boy saying 'read all about it' and to that effect, ive never even heard that accent in the UK. Anywa, im off to watch the cricket in my Buckinghamshire Mansion whilst drinking tea and scones, ill made finish up with a charming game of Croquet

England is crazy. You can have really high class places like Devon, and then really crappy places like Hull and Luton. I mean Birmingham is what the third biggest city and its all a big ****hole. But hell Im proud to be British, even if it means we have to live amongst gay chavs

HAHAHA, yeah we do sadly have to put up with the chavs.

I tell you what pisses me off, when you watch a film from America and an English person comes on, you know whats going to happen straight away ... he's going to talk like the queen (the only person who talks with this so called English accent), he's going to be the bad guy and he's going to be defeated by some big American cheese helmet wearing superhero man hehe.

Theres an American program that is shown on English TV quite a lot, called 'Worlds Wildest Police Videos' or something to that tune anyway. What really annoys me about it is that whenever there is a video in it from England, they've always added a sound effect over the top of the film, of what seems to be a police car sound from about 1928 or something, as if they are trying to create a stereotype of England. I bet most Americans think that English police cars go "NEE NAA NEE NAA NEE NAA" just because of things like that progam ... I don't remember the last time I heard a police car here that sounded like that, pfft.

A lot of people here think that all Americans are fat ... well, I know why that is, thats because almost everything we see on our televisions here thats about America is usually all about how fat and/or stupid people are in America, but most of us know thats not entirely true. People are gulable and they believe that thats how it really is, all of that kind of thing annoys me. Its as if TV companies here want us to have a certain stereotypical view of America, much the same as I think TV companies in America want to convey a certain stereotypical view of England.

Ahwell, whatever will be will be I guess.
