The Scots and Welsh identify themselves as such but the English tend to get mixed up with 'British' and don't always know the difference. I find this very interesting.

Britons who were fair minded and didn't have the 'my football team right or wrong' attitude were regarded with some wariness while foriegners who didn't were regarded as being admirable!
