I always have been in agreement with George Orwell. In his novel 1984, Britain belonged to Oceania, while the rest of Europe was part of Eurasia.
I have never understood how Britain made it into Europe. I think it is an Anglo-Saxonian conspiracy led by US intelligence services to contaminate Europe.
That they have been partially successful shows the comparison below for the deadlines imposed by Amazon in various countries for Christmas Orders.
US: last day to order, order by 3:00 PM
UK: last day to order
France: order tomorrow by 2:00 PM
Spain: last day to order, with express delivery 2 days left (not shown)
Italy: 2 days left for X-mas orders
Germany: 3 days left for X-mas orders with standard delivery
What it means:
UK: not sure that you will be delivered before X-mas
France: if you order by tomorrow, you will be delivered
Italy: did you note that even the website of Amazon.it: elettronica, libri, musica, fashion, videogiochi, DVD e tanto altro did not load properly?
Germany: with prime delivery 4 days to order
