Lugnet.loc.uk.foreigners newsgroup set up?

Kinda defeats the objective of a local group really :-) It'll be a bit
like RTL.

This will allow the true Brits (and those of us who'd like to be considered
a true Brit) to talk about important things like Premier Soccer, the Queen
Mother and Bentleys while downing pints of warm beer.

That's watching Premiership Football with a pint down the pub - warm
beer - ugh!  A nice cold pint of Carling or WorTHIMGton (it's a man
THING).

You have got to here some of the stereotypes people believe about us
Brits - just watching American shows with their special England episode
is enough.  Apparently we have a posh accent have BT Telephone boxes on
every corner and ancient red London buses everywhere.

Well it ain't like that my friend!  It's a war of words.
