english
found in the Rev. Dr Colin Morris' bbc radio 4 thought for the day here and here with some adjustments and additions
in the old days, a little Englander would:
- step
out of his pyjamas (a garment of East Indies origin)
- shave with a razor (made from an alloy discovered in Turkesta)
- wash with soap (1st used
by the ancient Gauls)
- have breakfast (Israeli oranges, a French croissant with a dab of Danish butter and cup of Kenyan coffee or Indian tea)
- dons a suit (a form of dress originally native to
the Russian steppes)
- on his way to the station in his volvo (a car made in sweden)
- he calls at the shop of Mr Patel (who by the way was born in Birmingham) for a newspaper (set out
in Arabic characters on a Chinese innovation, paper, by means of a German
process, printing)
- having parked the car he dashes for the train, (the English did invent them though the chances are it was manufactured somewhere else, and is owned by a foreign company)
- he settles back with his paper, turning to the sports news. He's pleased that the French manager of his team has chosen a strong line-up for Saturday's match, including Toure, Vela, Fabriegas, and Eduardo
- as he gets to work at his bank (owned by americans and financed by the chinese)
- he snorts with disgust at the antics of those dreadful foreigners and the EU and he thanks a Hebrew God in an Indo-European language that he was English (after Angle, a province of Schleswig-Holstein)
