From Bins To Biscuits, Here Are 40 Times People Caught The UK Being Unapologetically British (New Pics)
Tell us, pandas, what do you think is the most British thing ever? Saying sorry to inanimate objects? Mastering the art of queueing? Shakespeare? Or maybe a classic serving of fish and chips?
Whatever comes to mind, chances are it’s already been covered on the subreddit r/CasualUK. With 2.5 million members, the community celebrates anything and everything about Britain—and of course, it does so with a pinch of dry humor and gentlemanly charm.
Below, you’ll find some of its best recent posts! Enjoy!

My Parents Obtained The Deeds To Their House... From 1789. This Document Is The Same Age As The Us Constitution!
That's pretty cool! I lived in a house dating back to at least the early 18th century but it certainly didn't have title deeds going back that far.
To be fair, my house is old to Americans, and it was built in the 1980s.
Load More Replies...This isn't that unusual. I owned a 300 year old cottage in the New Forest. It freaks out Americans though.
I'm not remotely freaked out, but thanks for your concern. ;)
Load More Replies...As a little kid, we lived in a house (former mansion - 2 houses) built before the Civil War. It was used as a hospital while the owner fought (northern officer). He was brought home when wounded and it's believed he died there. His family had owned it about 50 years. So, early 1800's to 1820's?
That looks like a copy. No way that paper would look so good today. Still really cool though!
That's what I'm trying to figure out.. .I couldn't imagine getting the original and only copy...is that how it works? I would assume a bureaucratic establishment would keep the original.
Load More Replies...Wow! That's *terrific*! And it's so pristine and legible! Our family farm had been around for a while - the farmhouse was built in 1834 - and we had the original 'land patent' for it. We had it framed back when I was in high school (glass on both sides - there's writing on the back). It was so old the official seal was attached with a straight pin! It's pretty yellowed and faded, and hard to read. Not sure about the date - there's something on the front that seems to indicate the 1790s. but the back seems to be dated 1805. Maybe when it was issued and when it was recorded, I don't know. Here's the front - Swallow-Fa...c9775e.jpg
... And here's the back - Swallow-Fa...659c4e.jpg
Load More Replies...I've lived in 3 houses all built around that time and the title deeds are always interesting to read. Although, it's strange to think that owners in the future will see my name there.

Btw, why can't we see the little red button with upvotes to past comments any more? Another feature stolen for 'Premium'?
Good question. I think I'm pretty close to being done with Bored Panda.

Off-topic but this just happened: Has there been a change in BP's page layout? There used to be three icons between the search box and my account photo, one each for "Recent upvotes/comments", "Games" and "Dark mode". All three disappeared a couple of hours ago. This is on all four of my devices (2 Windows, 2 Android) so I don't think the problem is on my end. Is anyone else seeing this? TIA.
Not just you. Apparently being able to see upvotes and responses to comments is now for "premium" accounts only. Goodbye, Bored Panda.

An aside: Just noticed that BP has removed another thing from us, and obvs is now only Premium. Anyone else notice it's loss? All that's going to happen, @BoredPanda, is the same as what is happening to Twitter... #Migration
What is the "other thing"? The recent upvotes/comments button? If so, that's disappeared on Premium too.
Load More Replies...I've noticed, on a few posts, a 'paywall'- like thing going on, re: Premium. I'm assuming that's why non-premium can't see them?
