Just a thought...I am slightly uncomfortable that the title specifies "England" -- would "What do you Associate Britain with (or the United Kingdom)" be more applicable? After all, many of the excellent answers above are relevant to the rest of the UK.

I'd be happy with the United Kingdom instead of England, especially as I grew up in Wales, but I don't know what others think.

I think England is OK as many of the suggestions are specifically English as opposed to being associated with Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. Changing to the UK/Britain would widen the scope and allow for more suggestions, but whether that is a good idea I cannot say!
