Ever been to France? That being said, the most disgusting habit I’ve personally observed by a Brit was when a nanny we employed from Sheffield was washing our dishes and putting the soapy cups and plates into the drainer without rinsing them. She told us that’s how she was taught to do it back home.

Yes, flew from Paris to Bucharest once and the dude in the seat behind me smelled like he hadn’t showered or put on cologne in well over a week.

Uncouth hardly describes Euro’s sometimes.

Ah, I didn’t know that was a national tradition. I saw a Brit doing the same thing. I was always told that the dish soap would give you diarrhea.
