Today is the 200th anniversary when the french navy were whomped into submission by Nelson (naval term  )
In honour of "every man doing her duty this bitch Brit is carrying on the tradition!
Lesser known facts about Napoleon include the fact he was a postman. His father was a postman and his mother was a postmistress.
This one's for you Rexie Baby!

Sounds like a good excuse to celebrate to me  Back then, us colonists were just barely on our second president, and we were happy to see the french distracted elsewhere.

Don't let me get my history book out! There's plenty of other events where the french whooped the brits big time (without help). Fuck, Joan of Arc fucked them up pretty good a couple of times.
It's amazing that the brits haven't taken any cooking lessons from the french though...
Has anyone EVER had a decent meal in the UK?
If you say yes, you're lying your ass off...
Fish and Chips? Bangers and Mash??? Shepperd's freakin pie? They eat more potatoes than Idaho can produce...
Gimme a break and stay on your wrong side of the road driving island crowded with pikeys....
I crap bigger than England!

During the Napoleonic Wars, Robert Fulton had offered to build Napolean a fleet of steamships to help him overcome his archenemy, the British. The French emperor, believing Fulton was talking nonsense, impatiently dismissed the visionary young man, who subsequently pioneered the world's first steamships. British historian Lord Acton commented the "England was saved by the shortsightedness of the adversary. Had Napoleon shown more imagination and humility... the history of the nineteenth century would have taken a very different course."
This was the story told by Alexander Sachs to Franklin D. Roosevelt and convinced him of the need to develop nuclear power after FDR was less than electrified by the Einstein/Szilard letter warning him of German access to uranium and it being turned into extremely destructive bombs.

I'll be utterly precocious and berate you for your careless assumption that I am a primitive tribal person from Africa! You must feel totally intoxicated by the exuberace of your own verbosity to even ask such a question.
Crusts off naturally!
That was totally beastly of you to presume that I will ever touch a gastly piece of crust with my pout puckered lips!

I contribute her preference to crusts to her too many visits to the British African Colony with too much of those G&T's in her sails

the fondness for g&t's she got from her mother (who was probably related in some way to josephine btw) puts us back on track with this thread lol
i think the honeymoon in kenya might explain her fondness for crusts i mean to say they stayed in a treehut

Treehuts are totally overrated in my opinion.
Shacks are the latest in modern living and home decoration. She'll need a few more G&T's to cope with a honeymoon in Africa nowadays. A bit long in the tooth for that one now, I presume.

Actually the Queen mum used to drink gin and dubonnet which is probably what made her live to be over 100.. the poor old dear was pickled! (and I know this from personal experience so there!)

Helen, I think one would have to be, living in the Royal Family, don't you? Sure would make those stuffy dinners go by faster.
I always though the Queen Mum was so cool. I liked her.

I liked her too. I met her twice, once at a St Patricks Day ball for the Irish Guards for whom she was commander in chief and it was then that she was knocing back gin and dubonnet like there was no tomorrow.. she was incredible! I met her at a royal garden party too. I was lucky enough to go to two of those when I was alot younger.. the things we don't appreciate when we're young eh?
