A gloriously accurate guide to being insufferably British. Apologise to the furniture, queue for anything that moves, and communicate entirely through tea, weather and understatement. Decode 'I'm fine' (not fine), master the 30-minute goodbye, and learn the sacred, unwritten law of the queue. Genuinely funny and painfully true — the perfect gift for any Brit, or anyone brave enough to try to understand one.
