Australia - Foster's Lager, Loud Men - Sydney Harbour bridge
United States of America -
Godfather, big cars, immigrants
United Kingdom - Stiff Upper Lip, Immigrants, Bowler Hats!!!!
Japan - Kimonos, Chop Sticks, them multi storey houses that get smaller and smaller
Mexico - Hot Spicy food, gunfighters, Antonio banderas
Germany - Leiderhosen!, beach towels, nazis!
France - Eiffel Tower, Food & Wine
Greece - Olympics, Ruins & More Ruins
Iraq - American Soldiers, Brit Soldiers and Saddam
Canada - Maple leaf, loud women!, people saying 'I'm not American'!
Wow, what's that say about someone, I just noticed you mentioned Immigrants to one of the answer, so I'm checking whether it's the same.
Hey Ian....a quick question....how do Germany and beach towels relate?
FYI those Japanese houses, I believe are called pagodas. We have lots of Mexican immigrants here so that's why I said put that one down. Soon Anglos will be the minority.
Thanks for commenting.

Hi Annie,
Germans are famous in the Uk, when they are on holiday in Europe resorts, they get up early in the morning and reserve a sun lounger/beach chair by putting their towel on it!
In the Uk we are being swamped (and I'm not exxagerating) by immigrants both illegal and legal from Africa and Eastern Europe, it's costing us all a fortune because they can claim state benefits and free housing! We have just allowed nine Afghanistan HIJACKERS who hijacked a plane to get here to stay.
Keep doing the lists, it's great fun.
Thanks about the Pagoda's, I couldn't think what they were called.
I notice you put Rock of Gibraltar for Greece (it's at least 1,000 miles away on the tip of Spain!).
Wimps for France!
