whs, not a problem. But I wouldn't advise calling someone from Scotland, Ireland, or Wales, a Brit. You'd likely get a punch on the nose.
Us English are a bit more tolerant. (LH hides under the table at this point)
Edit. and I'm sure you would not like me to refer to you as a Hun or a Kraut.

The Scots and the Welsh class themselves as Scottish and Welsh. More so, now that they have their own parliaments.

Edit. Everyone can have a good laugh now, because the English can also be known as Red Necks.

Interesting the Wiki. There are so many alternatives that we can use a different one each day. Maybe you should announce your daily preference.

Wow. Calling all Americans, aren't you glad we're yanks? No confusion regardless of intent:) I'm learning much here!

Hey sparky. With your ancestry, I would be interested in your opinion of this. :)

Thankyou ScottW, I was sure that calling every American a yank was offensive. But then again, you're a Texan, not an American.
In France we have the French and the Parisiennes (according to the French)

Ok Lighthouse you asked for it and I'll be cool.I can't speak for the Welsh,although I'm sure they prefer to be called Welsh. Being raised Scottish/Irish,I can say with certainty to not call either parent a Brit or British.My mom was raised in Glasgow and is a firm believer in home rule.Now my dad is from Leitrim(The West Of Ireland)and he'd probably rip anyones head off if he was called British.Technically,Scotland,England,Wales and Northern Ireland are the British Isles.And I don't mind being called a yank even though I was born in Missouri.

Yes Lighthouse,ST.Louis,Missouri USA.Oh,by the way,I liked your photos.Your work area is as sloppy as mine,now I don't feel so bad.
