Keep your guns mate. After you’re done being condescending to we Brits, might I point out that all I need in the US is my English accent and that gets me access to everywhere you’d rather I didn’t.

That's because we are xenophiles, so I do believe you, and have seen that myself when my friends visit.

Any condescending tones from here are VERY Amateur League compared to being a Yank reading the British papers for a while. Really. Look at the Daily Mail and the Times, and in particular the Comments Sections on news stories. The comments written by the readers toward Yanks are often more brutal than anything that has appeared here, and are laden with impressions that seem to come from old "Dallas" reruns. The ones written by Dorset and Wilts farmers seem to be the worst.
