Perhaps we are not as British as we think...
An interesting little questionaire here. It shocked me to discover I only scored eleven, still that qualifies me for a seat in Parliament, apparently?

I got 12.
I got the question right, but I didn't realise that there was a minimum time you had to be married to get divorced. My mother got an annulment after 9 months married

Re: Perhaps we are not as British as we think...
It certainly is a tricky one, maybe if we had read the handbook......
