Thread: Britons behaving less badly

From todays Guardian newspaper :

Brits behaving less badly? Foreign Office reports fewer problems | UK news | The Guardian

Partial quote : "(Last year) Thailand recorded the deaths of 374 Britons, 64% of which were from natural causes." That's quite a high figure - average slightly more than 1 per day.

Given that a significant proportion of the 50,000 Brits believed to be resident in Thailand are retirees the quoted figure isn't that surprising. The survey as it relates to Spain indicated 55% of deaths there among Brits were from natural causes so it seems a statistical average common to differing countries.
