Was torn for 6 between Gibraltar and the Falklands. ETA: damn. #10 is going to kill me. OTOH if I’d chosen a bizarrely-named British food (as seems to be the standard) it would have been Toad in the Hole, which wouldn’t have helped me any. ---

Also, I feel obliged to point out that India was never a colony, dammit. They were subject to the Crown, but that ain’t the same thing. (ETA on googling, okay, they were technically a “crown colony”. Meh.) ---
