I got this off google.

The Internet was invented by the US Department of Defence as a means of communication if we were attacked by Russia. That was in 1969. The WWW on the other hand was invented by an Englishman called Tim Berners-Lee in Switzerland in 1989. The Internet dates back to the 1950s and 60s, although few of us knew of it then as it was part of the American defence system.

Iron Maiden, The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Clash, Black Sabbath,
Pink Floyd, The Specials.

I personally wouldn't say all of them are the best English bands, but others probably would.

Edit. I forgot The Jam.
& Oasis. Even though I don't like Oasis.

as long as we talk about Stereotypes and what we love about being English and such, and not let it turn into a WAYT,
it should be fine ( :

lulz. In the UK, each of the countries has a patron saint. Our's is St George & we celebrate St George's Day on the 23rd of April. It's like your July the 4th, but not as widely know. We don't have firework & all of that jazz. Just a fry up & a cup of tea Smile
