Yup, Gibraltar!

Decided on a day trip to there today.  But it wasnt very good tbh.  I was woo'd with stories of exceptional inexpensiveness and bargains galore (not just on fags and booze) but found it was actually alot more expensive than in the UK.

Plus also the weather.  It was a typical UK day in Gibraltar.  It was nice and sunny in most of Spain, til we got about 10km away and then it clouded over.  Once in Gibraltar it was on the verge of raining!!!!

No you weren't. Gib is British, but not part of the UK.  [-X

Ditto the Channel Islands and Isle of Man.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is England, Wales, Scotland and (obviously) Northern Ireland.

Sorry to be pedantic and all  ;)

Hmmmm, thats disputable, it is in fact 'The European Territories of the United Kingdom'.
So he was on UK soil, as we own it!!

This means the United Kingdom and Islands, plus Gibraltar, which is a British Colony with its own citizenship. Citizens of all parts of this area are UK Nationals in European Union law

Perhaps it's best to stick to British soil.

Describing the European Territories of the UK as part of the UK is tenuous at best - Of and In are not the same thing.

Curiously, a similar ambiguity also applies to the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed which was variously English and Scottish, and often referred to specifically in addition to the two nations. Although it's definitely part of the UK though :)
