What Makes You Proud To Be British?

It is a beautiful country, no doubt. The sad thing is many don't realise just how scenic the British Isles are.

Very varied for a small country too. Obviously most tourists head to Cornwall, The Lake District or Snowdonia, but there's loads of hidden gems like the Pembrokeshire coast, Northumberland, Northern Ireland and most of Scotland too.
 
As a foreigner ( 13 years in the UK ) i have to say, i've been forever touched by the following:

- your strong attitude towards adversity
- your sarcasm and humour
- your brilliance in engineering
- your brilliant pies
- your pubs and pub culture
- the love and care you show to your parks and museums and history
- chips and gravy
- Greggs
- basically Yorkshire tea
- football and Formula 1
- the way you treat pets and animals, its very rare outside the uk.

Many many things really, but there's a couple.

I'm more proud to be Scottish than be British, suspect that's the same from an English man's perspective
