Further Proof that Europe won't work without Britain!?!
Taken from an analysis of investments:

"If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines 2 years ago, you would have £49.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in AIG insurance company 2 years ago, you would have £33.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers 6 years ago, you would have nothing today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Northern Rock 5 years ago, you would have nothing today

But, if you had purchased £1,000 worth of beer one year ago at Tesco's, drunk all the beer, then taken the aluminum cans to the scrap metal dealer, you would have received £214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.

A recent study found that the average Briton walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Britons drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means that, on average, Britons get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you proud to be British!" Rolling with laughter

PLEASE NOTE: For those that don't quite get British Humour.................there is a little hint of Sarcasm in this!!! Rolling with laughter

And studies show that most British men have smaller penises than other European men. Except for the one on their forehead which is the worlds largest. Rolling Eyes Rolling with laughter

My wife is German, and any comment that perhaps her nation isn't noted for its sense of humour is met with: "We must have, I married him!"
