[Closed] in the Guardian

You couldn't, by your own admission, think of anything positive that Britain was a "World leader in".

So I gave you an example.

Aah - ok. You win. I had imagined that it was understood that we meant "anything significant" but I see I was wrong. Silly me. So. Let me supplement your example with women's badminton. Woo! Hoo! A bright future awaits!!

Gentlemen, leave it, or take it out into the car park 😀

Don't forget seaside rock! I can feel the gloom lifting now.

I wouldn't describe our engineering achievements as insignificant. 🙂

It is a with a wry smile that I note that the both of you are posting here very much making use of our engineering achievements, which I have personally had a hand in. 8)

Still, if you wish to shun such achievements you could always instead put pen to paper, perhaps using the inventions of our Hungarian counterparts, should you be so keen to belittle the achievements of our womenfolk without relying on the technology that we have developed. 💡

It is cool watching bits you've made whizz past the chequered flag though.

It's humbling to be in the presence of such greatness.

If I have seen further it is only because I have stood on the shoulders of giants. 🙂

Just think that every time you use a mobile device, I've played a small part in enabling its function.
I'm sure you'll find that comforting.
