Are things made in Britain? That's like the elusive "Made in the USA". My wife bought a handbag in Mexico and when I looked at the tag it said "Made in China".

My Acorn's were made in Britain. But only two of them have exploded when I tried to use them.
There's a factory a few miles away that makes hospital equipment (MRIs and things). They might even make stress machines.

tell me about it.. practically every tour is around a factory... at the end of which you get ambushed by sales people... so much for communism.

ahh acorns.. used them in second school.

'cept that with Graham (the writer) being from southern Ireland, aka The Republic of Ireland aka Eire, he doesn't actually qualify as British.

That's better...!

'cept the phrase 'taking the mick' is very non-pc, you'll get told off.

Don't sweat it.

'Political correctness' is a minefield. I reckon if you obeyed every PC rule 'to the letter' no-one would know what you were talking about. Lol.
