Re: Jon -- Now that REALLY hurt, ok? Chuffing Mary Poppins for having halitosis. SHAME!

Speakng of non-sequiturs, if you pull the wings off a fly, does it become Infantry rather than Airborne, or is it simply a Base Wallah of the Royal Flying Corps? For some strange reason that question occurred to me in my sleep last night (no editorial comments necessary, thank you, carry on, SAH!).

Re: Derek -- Well-spoken, even if from an adopted Yank! ( )... my father's side of the family came up here in 1786 under the same auspices, and of course, as I never tire of telling you (as I'm sure you are constantly tired of hearing) that my mum was born in Scotland. One way or another, we shall prevail over the lunacy of the EU!

Re: Dave -- Little more needs be said. You're a charming nationalist whose viewpoint is welcome. The axe-and-block perspective is particularly interesting!

Re: Cliff -- I've often thought that a new Commonwealth is not only viable but necessary. Call it the Coalition of English-speaking Peoples? Whatever, it would be a coalition of those who share the same values, in opposition to those who would have our resources and the power to expropriate them. We could debate this endlessly, I'm sure.

Re: Richard -- You expected nothing less than this from some of us, did you not?
