*sigh* you guys need a britspeak dictionary or something.
A toff is an upper class snob who always wears tweed jackets and the like, has his own estate and doesn't like to mingle with the "commoners". There's probably a longer and better way of putting it but that's my take on it.

I've never had that myself, but my mate has heard someone ask if England is in London, I usually just get asked if I live in London as soon as I mention I'm English.

Haha, oh, I know I'm silly, it's okay.
My philosophy teacher should die for this statement: "We're not perfect...but we're a hell of a lot better than anybody else." [about America]

ha, yeah right!!
I still think Rob Corbray's statement speaks volumes about either the voting public of american, or the indifferent americans who don't vote!
"It's time for McKinney and Delay to look the American People in the eye and ask, 'why do you keep voting for idiots like us?'" but I s'pose that's true of most places too, just that American gets the most coverage up here razz
