British People And Their Shenanigans That Some Of Us May Find Weird
Travel is a funny thing. Even if you go to a country that is very similar to your own, there are still small things that are VASTLY different.
As an Australian, I found things in America extremely strange. Their coins didn't have the numerical value written on them, all the bills were the same colour, and they still used cheques. A lot!
In the U.K. I found slightly more normalcy, but nudity on TV, even at prime-time hours was FULL FRONTAL. I'm not a prude by any means, but travelling with a 3 year old meant I had to closely police the television at all hours.
I feel very validated in saying that I am not the only person who found certain things in the U.K a little odd. Below are 13 other examples of British weirdness - check them out!
