well we dont all drink tea lol, and we are not all either cockney boot shiners or posh "chin chin old bean"
we are an old country, we are very proud, we used to rule the world, and we stopped those damn germans, they were trying to rule the world lol (sad but we are proud of both)
if you want to see old england look for pictures of cambridge, my favorite city, so full of history, isaac newton lived there
if you want to see new england look for pictures of peterborough and milton keynes (peterborough was the first city in the world designed by computors, but you will see that computors were not very advanced then lol and milton keynes is the "new city")

but feel free to message me and ask me some more direct questions, i would welcome answering you

It's wet and cold 355 days of the year. Walmart is called Asda. There are loads of different accents which vary in different counties like they do in the states of America

Well the UK gets some sun, mostly rain! The climate is alot cooler, It's a much smaller country, and we call things alot differently sometimes (e.g. Pants are jeans, Cookies are biscuits, sidewalk is pavement, color is colour, favorite is favourite). Also, we have different accents. The accent in Birmingham is quite funny, however the accent if you live in the West/South West of England, is cool too! As we sometimes miss out the letter "t" in words lol. (e.g. Nottingham becomes Not-in-hum) lol.

If you were to move here, I suggest you live in Bristol - very nice city which I am fortunate enough to live in.

I've travelled the world and England is still my favourite country and London the best city. We have 1000's of years of history and so many palaces, stately homes and cathedrals which are all worth seeing. You could live in London all your life and still not see/ experience everything there is. Proper English people are the salt of the earth, if you're lucky enough to meet one. We are very friendly and always happy to help, but you may need to ask first as we don't like to intrude. Above all, England's coastline and countryside is beautiful in all weathers. If it is rainy and windy at least you'll have all that beach to yourself! Or you can take yourself off to a cosy fire lit pub for a spot of lunch.

The Queen owns all the swans in Britain.

In York, excluding Sundays, it is perfectly legal to shoot a Scotsman using a bow and arrow.

London is massively crowded.
When I visited the UK for the first time (this July), it was very different than I expected it to be.

The UK or Great Britain comprises Scotland , Wales ,Northern Ireland and England . England has 84 % of the population but the only part of the UK without its own Government! The UK Parliament meets at Westminster and votes on English issues . Strangely enough Scots , Irish and Welsh Members of Parliament ( MPs) can vote on purely English issues but English members cannot vote on devolved matters such as education and health which are decided in Edinburgh , Cardiff ot Northern Ireland in the Parliaments / Assemblies of these countries . Worth a visit apart from London try the Scottish Highlands and Edinburgh . People are friendly and sure you would enjoy the experience Bella Luna.

Classy country next to France but w/more sense of humour. Nice, informative tv documentaries. Good transport system apart from delays. Intelligent people. Big drinkers. Expensive compared to Tokyo and New York. Lots of parks. Knowledgeable cabbies. Interesting fashion. Men are dressed very well, so they can be kind of cute. Englishmen are gentleman. Well, I'm just focusing on London so maybe not so accurage description of UK in general. Hope others can fill you in on rest of country!
