1. As said previously, queueing. A lot.

2. Accent spotting - despite UK regional accents being radically different from one another (and I'm almost qualified to say that officially), non-Brits apparently often have trouble.

3. Quoting Monty Python? Question marked because non-Brit geeks prolly can.

4. Ironic patriotic self-loathing.

5. Lasagne with chips. Say it with me: carbs and cheese.

6. Alcohol tolerance. Well, for Scots at least.

7. (a) Ability to expound at length upon the British class system.
(b) Ability to expound at length upon religion - any religion.
(c) Ability to do the above but when pressured will admit to not actually giving a shit as long as whatever's going on doesn't happen in one's back yard.

8. Worrying excessively about the goings-on in one's back yard when one shares it with six other people who one hates, and hasn't actually been in it except that one day last summer when one thought one would dry one's washing in the warm, only then it rained and the laundry came in grubby. Not doing that again.

I'll let you know if I come up with any more.
