    Hey, mine too. "Eat your vegetables", "Pick your socks up", "Have you done your homework", "Be careful with that", "Stop Talking! SLEEP!!!" (the latter yelled from down stairs), "Wait till I tell your Father!". I think Mother tongue is pretty universal irrespective of language. ... of course, there are large segments of inner cities and council sink estates where the last one usually has the addendum ", if I ever work out who he is."

    If I got to choose, I'd probably go for Swiss. Affluent country, good infrastructure, beautiful scenery, all the firearms you can handle and the knowledge that nobody will fuck with you for fear of having their assets frozen.

    Ok, I'd have to put up with being surrounded by a bunch of mindnumbingly-boring, sanctimonious twats but that's a bit of a busman's holiday.
    Don't worry, if the Swiss got to choose, you'd be British!

    Quite happy being a Brit/Jock, but if I had to choose...dunno...Canadian? Then I can still be a bit Jock.

    Easy one as I have dual British/Italian citizenship anyway, and as I was born in Belfast am entitled to an Irish passport too.

    If I wasn't British, I'd like to be a full-time spaghetti muncher, largely for the same reasons as posted by the OP.

    I'm Welsh by birth but I've often thought Austrian would be an acceptable alternative.
