Scottish, Nthn Irish, Welsh, very different to English. The mistake the man made was saying British when I assume he meant English.
An official description is that Great Britain, or "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for the full name, is a sovereign state made up of four countries." So Yeah, if you've been lucky enough to cross off Welsh, English, Scottish and Northern Irish then they are 4 separate countries.
But the real test would be to go to Glasgow or Belfast, meet a nice young lass, then tell her she's no different from a Londoner. Won't go down well I wouldn't think.
