    No, no, no....you're all wrong.

    Which do you prefer.

    (a) Tea.

    (b) Tea.

    or

    (c) Tea.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    A simple test is to acquire a set of regulation sized goalposts, a blob of white paint, a football and a friend of a different nationality, preferably german. Set up the goals then 12 yards from the middle of the goal paint a white dot, place the football down and try to score past the keeper, if you fail miserably then you are a true englishman!

    Similar tests include sports such as tennis....

    Actually, you're Dutch if you fail that test. We had a little show on our television at the last World Championships, called 'de Hollandse penalty'. Trying to fail to score a goal in several ways the dutch team did.

    Maybe our teams should get together and have a penalty shootout sometime, Im sure England would still lose though.... its in our blood...
