The Norman Invaders, their descendant spawn and other
hangers-on are simply irrelevant, and their continuing
self-indulgence renders every Brit as a second-class
citizen unable, unlike the French and the Yanks, to
rise to become head of state.

In 45 years' time, it will be the 1,000th anniversary
of the Norman invasion and so a good point to do away
with the lot o' them.

Time also for another National Anthem, because the
current version has as the opening and closing words
of the first line the make-believe cancers of the
Norman religion and the Norman monarchy, and the whole
thing in all its ridiculous verses is nothing whatsoever
about the people of this nation.

Well it won't be a telegram it;s a standard card delivered by the royal mail.
And you have to apply for it at least 3 weeks in advance if you want one.

Oh and of course the Queen doesn,t send it or licks the back of the stamp ;-)

Quite - what was the wording on the passport? HRH 'demands' something of
foreigners? No wonder our Brexiteers thought 'getting back' sovereignty

She used to sign every 100th birthday card for a while. Stopped that
a longggg time ago. There are now 14,500 over 100 and now that the
last of the post WW1 baby boom have joined them there could be more,
depending on how many avoided Covid-19

GOAAT = Going Off At A Tangent :-)

51 years ago, I had a vacation job in Hales' Cake Factory
in Clevedon, and worked on the Battenberg Cake production line.

What a disappointment today is the Lyons' version in comparison,
over-sweetened and much smaller in size!

In 1970 it was a manual operation taking the 3ft square sponge
cases and cutting then down to size, but, I have to say, there
was huge wastage destined for the pigswill bins.

If the Queen makes it to 100, will she send herself one? ;-)

why not


Well it won't be a telegram it;s a standard card delivered by the royal mail.
And you have to apply for it at least 3 weeks in advance if you want one.

Not more than 3 weeks in advance.
Oh and of course the Queen doesn,t send it or licks the back of the stamp ;-)

The Norman Invaders, their descendant spawn and other
hangers-on are simply irrelevant, and their continuing
self-indulgence renders every Brit as a second-class
citizen unable, unlike the French and the Yanks, to
rise to become head of state.

In 45 years' time, it will be the 1,000th anniversary
of the Norman invasion and so a good point to do away
with the lot o' them.

Time also for another National Anthem, because the
current version has as the opening and closing words
of the first line the make-believe cancers of the
Norman religion and the Norman monarchy, and the whole
thing in all its ridiculous verses is nothing whatsoever
about the people of this nation.




It deals with the Scots though.
