Kayaking is a word in Inkutikut, I don't think that's correct spelling, so it isn't a British sport

I thought Canadian, but close enough I guess; hence my mention, and vote for football.

I always get booed on the Aussie forums for talking about football, or as my countrymen excruciatingly say: 'soccer'

Pffffft Poncy kayakers Razz
(Is 2* Canadian Canoe)

My arms have completely disentegrated since I stopped canoeing, vastly annoying.
Cricket is a fantastic sport also, and represents the very essense of 'Britishness'.
Football is beautiful to watch at times, although it's getting less of a sport and more of a business...
