Dont Mention The War as Brits top the ‘angriest’ poll

in Our Man in Sweden

How funny! An article in the New York Times reckons thats the Brits are now the most angriest culture in Europe!

This was the result of a survey conducted on the 30th anniversary of the British comedy series Fawlty Towers or Pang i Bygget as its known in Sweden.

I would have thought that the Southern Europeans would have the shortest tempers but alas it seems like us Brits are the angriest. Talking personally I have always had a short fuse, I think its down to a mix of Celtic temper and English lack of patience.  Its something I am working on here in Sweden as the Swedes can be very stoical, in fact too stoical.  I believe this is why two of my relationships with Swedes went to pot because I am not sure the British temperament and the Swedish stoicism is a winning formula.  Or maybe in true Morrissey lyric style I am just blaming everyone but myself!
