Our English Pride

"My ENGLISH Pride I will not hide.

My ENGLISH race I will not disgrace.

My ENGLISH blood flows hot and true.

My ENGLISH people I will stand by you

Through thick and thin till the day we die

Our ENGLISH pride stands so high."

I was thinking that myself!

 

Stand and deliver!

No need to ask you about yours then ;)
Aye, but its a nowty fcuker. :D
First part, I'm sure you're right. Me and BCG both agree on that one.Second point: No. I thought this one had been discussed to death. It's just not right.
And you've got the cheek to call me frigid :D

MickBrown/Crawley! Which national football, cricket, rugby team do you support/follow?

Tut, there's always one!

 

Keep on topic boy

As a point of order, can I just remind everyone that it was no balls and BCG who took it to the gutter.

 

Again.

:pardon:

Trollop

British tea from India (or asianstan if your Bolty)? :good:

 

aisianstan? What the feck is that about?

 

Now that is PC bollox.

 

Just for your amusement young Michael, I was brought up by my maternal grandparents. Me grandad was a superstar. Absolute character - fought in WWII etc. and had some cracking tales to tell.

 

One day when I was about 12, we're sat watching some sport on TV and the old girl shouts from the kitchen 'Want a cup of tea or coffee Dad?'

 

'Aye, I'll have a cup of tea. Don't want any of that foreign muck'

 

I pipes up 'Hang on a minute grandad, ain't tea grown in India and China?'

 

'Rubbish lad, it's British'

 

Now then, Mr Subcontinent, my grandfather would not tell me a lie, right? :D

Whats the point of having one like a baby's arm holding an apple?

 

Its not good having half of it out in the cold.

 

And with a small nob, there's more chance of persuading her to open the back gate.

 

Apparently.

 

what about men with big tongues? :p That Jamie Oliver might be a tw?t, but I bet he's good at one thing!

Give over. You need help, girl. Nobody so sanctamonious could be a decent muncher! :nea:

I'll send a certain Horwich lad over - he's 7'8

 

When you see him, how many times have you wondered to yourself, HBIHC?

Or is it just me being overly curious?

Google search results tend to agree that he's actually 7'4".

 

Perhaps the surplus inches are allocated elsewhere. :mellow:

Gene Simmons?

Knob! He meant a "slap there smiley" - as in one of those yellow circular devices - think they're called emoticons.

 

BRD is coming back on here to avoid confusion!

Knob!

 

Ah it seems he was right after all, you WILL get a slap

A minister has admitted that the government spent a mere 230 pounds promoting St George's Day over the last five years.

 

Culture Minister Margaret Hodge confessed that her department spent 116 pounds on promoting England's national day this year, two pounds more than in 2007 -- and absolutely nothing in the previous three years.

 

The admission provoked outrage from at least one patriotic member of parliament.

 

"I think it is a shameful indictment and it needs to be changed," said deputy Andrew Rosindell, who is chairman of parliament's all-party Saint George's Day Group.

 

"We must be the only country in the world that spends nothing or virtually nothing on celebrating its national day. It is a great pity.

 

"I was expecting it to be low but not that low. Other countries in the world such as Australia and the United States spend a lot of time and effort in promoting their national days and we should be doing more.

 

"There needs to be a change in the culture of government in the way it approaches something like this."

 

Saint George's Day, which falls on April 23, is an annual non-event in England.

 

It is generally punctuated by breweries trying to cash in and promote a party atmosphere; left-wingers saying that patriotism should be reclaimed from the racists; a variety of English eccentrics; and everyday folk wondering why the English just don't seem to bother.

 

The fact that Saint George's Day is not a public holiday only adds to the general lack of interest.

 

The thing that puzzles me, is this Andrew Rosindell bloke, who who is chair of parliament's all-party Saint George's Day Group, claims it is shameful indictment and things need to change - well why doesn't he do something about it then. He clearly can't be doing that good a job if only ?116 was spent.

Nail on head. If, in his position of chair of parliament's all-party Saint George's Day Group (made up quango just to give everyone a job!) if he's this bad at it he should resign forthwith.
