We don't feel spite for the English...
We pity them for not being Scottish.

True, it's the Irish who feel spite for the English, the Scottish who feel pity for the English, and the Welsh who feel that weirdly uncomfortable "3am empty subway car and that guy just chose to sit in the seat next to me" feeling towards the English.

Savery or Newcomen? Heron of Alexandria!!
Besides, Arthur should include another 'bubble' in his Venn-diagram: the curse of having a skirt and no undergarments as a national dress while the national flower (the thistle) grows more than thigh-high.
