It is very fascinating. I have had a lot of colleagues from the UK over 
the years, and it is a diverse collection. Once I had a colleague from 
northern scotland, and over a bad IP-phone line it was impossible to 
understand him. He has something in his mouth I suspect.

Then I had a colleague who was ginger, and it was acceptable and expected 
to make fun of him. Of course I heartily joined!

When asked about beautiful women in the UK the ginger man said they are 
horrible, drink too much beer, get drunk and then fight each other.

Is this true?
