I might be willing to help out, in exchange for an estate in Normandy once the fighting's done. You may not know this but a Dane is actually worth 20 million dirty foreigners (15 million clean ones). That would give you the advantage of numbers (in an abstract kind of way).

"...And that is called paying the Dane-geld,
But we've proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane..."
Good old Kipling. :bleh:

Or if you go a bit mad and try to command the sea not to come in. Knut was Danish wasn't he?

That's not fair. It's commonly accepted that he did that to prove that even kings don't have unlimited power, not because he was insane. Besides, it's obvious to everyone that the sea disobeyed him out of spite and petty jealousy. :crazy:

North 'Irland' is a total mess at the mo. Always will be.

I say - get our troops back on the double and get our wonderous empire back in Africa! Actually, we could do ourselves a favour and get back most of France too...

Huzzagh! To the boats!

I belive we should build Roman Empire again.... Just to balance the world.... LOL LOL LOL

Mussolini tried that I guess, but he didn't succeed because he wasn't English.

I think this forum needs a reminder of the 'nous reatreatons' era of French history lasting the last couple of years. 6 of us could have 'em all on.

Darts is an Irish game, play pool instead.

Meet at Leeds fest, right? I'm there on Sunday

Or polo - no wait, that's Persian, isn't it? Back to watching cricket, then...

[PrejudiceSucks]

Aye... true....

I cannot believe how badly we're getting beaten at that...

That'll teach us to go teaching our games to foreigners. LOL
