    Indeed. Rather like pouring sweet shandy into an open syewer, that. And don't go sticking us in with those backwards Midlander chaps, either. As the great, good, peerless, and by no means tyrannical, simple, or wooftersome King Richard II recognised: Cheshire is a realm unto itself, quite superior to all around it. It should be recognised as such. Do otherwise, and our fine and upstanding Yeomanry will do to you as they did to the uppity and beclogged folk of Manchester two centuries ago!

    Vive le garb d'or!

    When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball

    Pfft, you should have seen what my lot did to them a few years ago...

    Too soon!

    Seriously, I couldn't get to the Arndale for days after that. Not on.

    Favorite quotes:

    "Do you really think we were going to stop 100,000 Glaswegians wanting to have a drink?"

    "Police involved in violent clashes. CCTV footage captures a lone officer being chased by a "baying mob" of about 200 fans."

    "There are groaning bodies in the gutters. And still they fight."

    "Early hours: ...Some Rangers fans have already started drinking again...Some never stopped."



    Aww. Look at the cute gay couple. The one with the fag looks hurt:

    Rioter: "Very well constable. I shan't resist."

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    I missed this outrage, and hereby serve notice that the President of Connacht better move his soft, republican tush out of Clare before Munster stirs. The Dalcassians shall arrive on your borders, naked and ready for war as at Clontarf, and though we be kings and sons of kings, their fury shall not be gainsaid.

    Isn't this fun? Europe was so much more entertaining when we had these kind of "debates" over someone's map.

    Umm, Banquo:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/10209

    Widespread frost with icy roads in places. Outbreaks of snow affecting eastern parts of Scotland and eastern, central and southern England, drier and brighter in west. Feeling very cold in the strong northeasterlies with drifting snow in places.
    Tonight

    A bitterly cold night with a widespread frost under clearer skies in central and western parts of the UK. Outbreaks of snow across southern and northern England and eastern Scotland.
    Thursday

    A bitterly cold start with icy roads. Further snow showers in the east and parts of the south. Bright in the west. Winds easing, but remaining very cold.
    Outlook for Friday to Sunday

    Very cold throughout. Friday drier and brighter across much of the UK but sleet and snow push into western parts on Saturday and into southern counties for Sunday. Light winds.


    I coin the phrase: Todgerpop.

    Bah.

    The Dalcassians were famed for running into battle stark naked with nought but a small weapon in hand. Granted, cold weather diminishes the effect somewhat, but a thousand naked Irishmen charging at one's lines with what one fervently hopes is just a blood lust in their eyes is enough to put the wind up most manly warrior types. Remember, around ten per cent of these chaps were ginger.

    After Clontarf, this explains why Norwegians have a hereditary fear of red hair and turning their backs on an enemy.
