My good natured ribbing of Mr. PAR was based on experiences my wife and I had with both the Brits and the folks on the Continent when we've travelled to Europe. For instance, in 1980, we were traveling to Prague (behind the Iron Curtain at that time!) and there was a guy from Norway in our train compartment who was eager to practice his English. So he told us this joke - I don't remember it exactly, but it had something to do with the conversion to indoor plumbing in the rural areas, and the punchline was, "Oh! We would never do that - we're British!"
The nice thing about all this is that the Brits, like Mr. PAR, are very good sports about the ribbing they get. ;-)
