Have to say, I as a Brit completely agree with the world's view about Tony Blair being a moron and an arse. Don't know what the rest of the world think of us as people- stiff upper lip? tea drinking? beer drinking? That sort of thing? If so, then probably yes!

You all are fantastically cliched when it comes to the tea and the beer. Don't know any stiff-upper-lipped rich people, though, so I can't vouch for that side of the cliche being true . I am a student, though, I'm sure there are some somewhere that I haven't encountered! Maybe I'll meet them at the theatre in April and giggle at them. I love you all, though, this country is awesome. Even if you do say weird things like 'traffic cone' instead of 'witch's hat' *peer*

I don't know as it is just rich peoplewho have the stiff-upper-lip. It's more a sort of national grin-and-bear-it (or at least put up with it), don't-be-over-emotional type thing. I think.
But yes, the tea and the beer are massive cliches.
Ummm... Witch's hat? I suppose it does look like one. But then, traffic cone does just what it says on the packet ;D

we call them Lübecker Hütchen (Hütchen meaning a small hat). but I think I like the British because of that don't-be-over-emotional thing because I can't stand melodramatic people who always seek attention in one way or the other, mainly by fussing over something I wouldn't even mention.

Yeah, that can be annoying...
Don't be fooled, we get a fair few melodramatic people here in Britain, too, but mostly we just ignore them.

In that case, I hardly even notice it. Aussies are pretty much like that too.

just to get back to the topic for a moment: I just want to say that I was totally surprised by the fact that Miranda is #46! She ,more than anyone else, should be at the top of the list.And I hate Nicole Kidman so much.

Seriously, I have no problem with Nicole, but she is not THAT good!

I don't mind a great deal of the actresses on that list (though Miranda should defintiely have been top), but to have Cerberus ahead of Miranda is BLASPHEMY!
