How English?
'cos we're all grown up and friendly on here, I thought I'd post this
 :http://www.buzzfeed.com/robinedds/ho...h-are-you?bffb I got an unsurprisingly low score (6..  ) on this, but thought that other forum members more "naturally attuned" than me might want to try it  Oh, and a sincere and belated St Georges Day to those who would/could/should have celebrated it….

Oh dear!
You ticked off 49 out of 70 on this bloody lovely list! The queen is dead, long live YOU. There is no one in England’s green and pleasant land as English as you. You make St. George himself look positively foreign. What’s that? St. George was actually born in Palestine? Don’t be silly. P.S. The queen isn’t really dead.

41: "You are very chuffing English! Bloody brilliant. You’re really ruddy English and don’t you just know it?! Bowl a googly. Neck some Earl Grey. Tut at a foreigner. It’s what Churchill would have wanted!"
Still got it then, even after nearly 14 years north of the border!

"Gone to a non-English-speaking country and communicated by using the shouting and pointing technique?"
does going to England count ? You ticked off 8 out of 70 on this bloody lovely list! Blimey, that’s disappointing! You’re not very English at all — in fact, you’d probably feel more at home in the Colonies. No scones for you, I’m afraid.
