My Father is Australian, my Mother's English, and I am proudly Australian.

And to weigh into the Great Britain vs United States arguement, i'd like to quote part of an interview once had with the great John Cleese. I should firstly prefix this with two things. Firstly, the interviewer is American. Secondly, the interview was done while Clinton was still President.

<Interviewer>In comparison to the United States, what's so "Great" about Great Britain?
<Cleese>Well firstly, we speak English. Secondly, when we hold a "World" sporting competition, we invite other countries to participate, and thirdly, when we greet our head of state, we only have to go down on one knee...

Rule Brittania all the way, baby biggrin:
