I love the English, not just because more than half of the red stuff that keeps me moving is English, But for the zany humour.

I only filch when things are worth it. Rather like those who nick Georgian silver 🙂

Yes! Charles, Ann, Andy and Eddy flailing around with huge inflatables. Or something. It must be on YouTube. The International Knockouts were the best though, on Friday nights.

I looked and there are some on Youtube. Les Dawson in lilac leggings and someone who looks awfully like Babs Winsor. I need strong drink!
