G20 - Gee Whiz

[Rich]

Ack, it's time the old lady lightened up a bit anyway. I think you'll find that a hug is an American sign of respect...

Ah yes but Lizzie knows that we are not that friendly towards the Yanks at this minute and that our Queen(god bless her) should be bowed down to by lesser civilisations

By lesser civilisations do you mean non-British?

 

[Rich]

By lesser civilisations do you mean non-British?

esp. the Yanks and Ozzies

In the case of the royal parasites, oops, family, it means any non royals.

Brian

 

[oumahexi]

I prefer Rich's version Brian. Because then it means I wouldn't need to bow to her either! Not that I would, they're all foreigners anyway! Just remind me, why was it they had to change their name to Windsor? What was it before?

 

[Rabbie]

As a scot I question the why we have Queen Elizabeth the second when we haven't had a Queen Elizabeth the First.

I guess the same applies to most of the commonwealth. In fact only England, Wales and Northern Ireland were ruled by Elizabeth the first so perhaps she should change her title if she wants our support

 

[Rich]

Because Americans couldn't pronounce it correctly

And we the English might ask for our money back that we lent you for the failed invasion of South America

Historical correction. The Darien scheme failed because you didn't lend us any money. The money you sent north shortly afterwards was used to buy votes in the scottish parliament so we would vote for the Union of the parliaments.

"Sic a parcel o' rogues in a nation!"

Sounds like sour grapes to me, is that why ol' salmon face got elected?

Probably It seems that the only way to win a election is promise everything and keep quiet about the eventual price ticket. In my book they are all as bad as each other

Oh, thank you Rich, you're a wee gem! May I point out there should be a comma between "we" and "the English"

I agree but unfortunately Windows has installed the American keypad

Possibly the bards finest work!

Did you know the US President has Irish ancestry?

Barrack O'Bama - good Irish name.

Ack the Irish are always pulling people's legs like that. I was brought up to believe my ancestors were Irish, turns out they're from Dudley! It would have been an easier pill to swallow if they'd been axe murderers

 

[Rabbie]

Would that be the O'Umahexi clan

 

[oumahexi]

Would that be the O'Umahexi clan

Jist aboot there Rabbie, it's the O'Hexi clan, Ouma is my first name
