Actually I'm English and my New Year has past.

Simon it's a good excuse to have a Chinese takeaway tonight!  I wonder if the Chinese ever have an English takeaway ...?🤔

Sue Hammond ● 2482d

I had a C takeaway (delivered) last night...don't need to wait for their New Year to do so.BTW I don't celebrate any non-English festivities.And no I don't think the Chinese say: Let's have a takeaway English tonight.Can't see roast beef with trimmings travelling too well :)Thinking about it, what actually is our national dish? Curry?

Shall we celebrate on Friday 31st with pie & mash? Yum yum!! 😛

Sue Hammond ● 2482d

Love pie and mash but it has to be after a few pints of wallop.Love the liquor (supposed to be eel juice but really parsley), never took to the vinegar...meat and vinegar?...No!

You forgot the stewed eels. I love it all. Bring it on! xx

So, Simon, it's no help that it's Burns Night tonight as well? I guess it's not English, but it is British? (Vegan haggis also available ...)  Personally,  I'd take the view that the Solar and Lunar New Years are astronomical events so anyone on the planet can celebrate them? 🙂

I don't give a jot for Rabbie Berns with his wee mousy thing, don't do vegan and whilst I like whiskey think that Laphroaig is akin to drinking a bonfire.

Simon. Have you ever investigated your family tree?  You may be surprised to find you're not as English as you think!

Philippa Bond ● 2481d

No I haven't, but born in England and with a British passport kind of says I'm English.
