Not basically. They all ARE English

Yeh, ever hear a drunk Scottish person? Swear that’s a language all on it’s own.

Best conversation I ever had in my life was with a drunk Scotsman. I couldn't understand a single word, but that wasn't necessary.

You're thinking of Scottish

The English are permanently drunk

My wife and I were on a flight once, we had been in Canada on a previous trip where they do French and English for every message.

We were sitting on this plane trying to work out what language the pilot was speaking, when we finally worked it out. No idea what the message was but we're pretty sure it was an Australian captain speaking what they refer to as "English".

Could be worse, you would still be waiting for the pilot to get out of the sheep so you can take off if it was a New Zealander pilot.

Or Scots. "Get off the ship!" (Which means, "stop fucking the sheep".)
