By the way, you spelt grammatically wrong.
That's how we spell it in Wales. We always keep one M back in reserve, just in case we need it.

Was reminded of this thread a little while ago when reading the terms and conditions for the latest Tesco petrol vouchers.

There are two lists of products you need to buy to get a voucher. One list for "UK except Northern Ireland" and another for "Northern Ireland".

So why the hell isn't the first list just labelled "Great Britain"?

Makes you wonder about the status of Athletes from Mann, Jersey and Guernsey. They're not in Great Britain or the United Kingdom. How does that work eh?
