surprised and just a little bit pissed at all the hatin' in this thread.
it is, or rather is should be important to us brits, just like independence day is important to the yanks. except we don't really have a 4th of july where we can get drunk and chant USA USA USA from the top of buildings (i've lived in the states and seen this). And if you're not into football there isn't much else to get stuck into. We don't have a national back patting day.
So for the first time in years, an international even of patriotism doesn't seem at all obtuse to me.
That said, i've been away from the media hype and it hasn't made me sick. but i think it's important to give-a-fuck about the heritage and traditions of other countries, even if you didn't wear a hat and drink pims.
