Obviously, as I have said elsewhere, the Clangers, and haggis, as the only credible alternative to food.

...."is a mere shadow of it's past". This statement would be presented with such assumptions that the Western civilisations had acquired a pinnacle of all existences?

There are circles that would suggest that European-clad cultures had never attained such heights as the illusion might promote. World historians could easily testify that the truer influence and contributions to civilisations, historically, by Europeans would be embarrassingly way down on the list.

So Occidentalism has come full circle, has it? Dying....;)

Another opportunity missed.....although the Aston Martin did add a bit of fun for the yanks.

The choice for people like you to leave.

That's a bit cryptic, even for me.

Its posts like these that remind me of the dangers of morning drinking, the need to consider which way the sun lies for our overseas brethren

I suppose having the right to choose is fortuitous enough for some.

This is all a bit Patrick McGoohan for me.

Be seeing you!
