      I remember the last Jubilee, '77 wasn't it? We had street parties and fun and every kid was given a mug and a crown. I've still got mine somewhere and apparently its worth something now (along with my Mum's coronation mug she was given as a kid) Did kids get anything this time? Bet not!
      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            I don't see you winning the argument... yet you think you are winning / have won. Over-confidence in one's intellectual abilities is the sure sign of sub-normal intelligence.
