I received quite a lot of hits from people in the States yesterday, some of whom left very nice comments. There were also some comments which make me think that I may have represented myself as being pro war. My post about making
war an Olympic sport was written before yesterday's bombs in London and was intended to be a tongue in cheek reference to the fact that we Brits have been traditionally very good at it. It turned out to be in rather bad taste.
So, for the record, I am against war and all the
horrors and misery that it brings. In my opinion, war should be the absolute last resort.
Also for the record, I quite like the French, especially because they are so, well, French. Ditto, the Italians in spite of the fact that they’re all so damned well dressed. The same goes for the Germans who get my vote in spite of the many splendid hangovers I have endured in their country. Have I left anyone out?
Finally, I still think that we should put Wales on eBay.
