I know what you mean.... over here in Oz the English (and anyone else born in the uk) are
known as "poms" but those of us from countries in the UK other than England.... e.g.
myself as a Welsh born person... consider the English as natural enemies <g>

..... they invaded us 600 years ago and we're still trying to get rid of them.... so
being called "poms" by the Aussies is almost an insult to the Scots, Welsh and Irish :))
