where are you?

Often you'll hear Britons say something like they will be going to Europe for the summer. If you don't define yourselves as part of Europe, which continent do you identify with??? Not trying to pick a fight here, I just genuinely don't understand. Sure you're an island (or several) but it still seems so odd to me every time I hear a statement such as the above. Don't you think of yourselves as Europeans?

I think we've established that, Molly;-)

Yeah but LOL

there was a famous (and possibly non-existent) headline in the Daily Mirror: 'Fog in the Channel - Europe Cut Off'.

That is absolutely hilarious, jno - priceless!
