You guys should know that the world is slightly larger than the UK. In fact, that little Island is not very significant.
Whittles' jet engine, Viscount, Comet, Concorde, Harrier jump jet (err sorry did not the Americans buy the rights etc).
Sorry but this "not very significant Island" has done quite alot!
Sorry to all correct minded Americans, but I can't stand people who probably only read about the UK in books and if they looked on an atlas they wouldn't know where it is.
Yes, we may be a small Island's nation, but we are not small minded like some people.
