Britain, England, UK, Great Britain, the British Isles, are have different meanings. It's all very confusing even for people who live there. Look at this which explains, with Venn Diagrams and all.

I can say with certainty and without fear of offending anyone that I live in England which is part of Great Britain, itself a part of the UK. Whether I describe myself as English or British would depend on whether I was talking about geography, nationality, culture. Of course it gets more complex with sports teams.

I have never known a CD to melt in the car, but I never leave them in there, so as not to tempt potential thieves with bad taste in music. Though what with the weather the chances of anything melting in my car are pretty remote.
