She forgot my OBE so I don't hold out much hope for a card:D

 

Dave, you missed out the Angles and the Saxons.:gnthb::lollol:

 

This is true, when times are good most workers are prepared to accept the fact that foreign workers are here, its a case of "if I'm doing OK I'm not Bovvered".

Mention redundancies country wide and it all starts to rankle.

I'm not sure, but isn't Total French anyway.

If so, can we expect anything different.

The world is so mixed up these days, most British companies are now foreign owned.

Not New Labour, by any chance?:D

 

When was it ever 'New' Labour?:skp::D

6ft of snow will take our minds off all this doom and gloom.:D

My maternal ancestor's came over with Billy of doubtful parentage whilst my paternal ancestor's were probably Viking.

I'll pack my case.

 

Larkshall, you are amongst friends, I`m half Viking myself.:gnthb::yho:

 

I`ll get my stuff too, my Nan was Irish, my Grandad was Scottish, and there`s some Austrian in me somewhere back. I`m a mongrel, in fact we all are. Kick the lazy dole dossers out and there`ll be plenty of room.

 

You'd be hard pressed to find a Brit who doesn't have some foreign blood running through his or her veins.

 

Too true!...........

As a Brit I am proud of this country and our values....Don't like it ??....then clear off!
