EC1 - sorry, did you say this thread needs jocking? Grief, what a lot of over-twee stuff - hell, the English are either inbred toffs or dirt-grimed serfs, the Welsh are dangerous around sheep, the Scots are tightwads (remember the old Harry Lauder anecdote? When asked by some old dear, collecting for charity, to give 'til it hurt, the great comedian riposted, "But madam, the verra idea hurrts!"). The Dutch are far too liberal, the French are wusses, the Italians... on it goes. Every race/nationality has its joke stereotype. But we need to see the jokes from the insults, and know when a remark is intended for jocular, rather than derogatory, purposes.
