WILF 46,685 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Our education system is run by lefties by and large so they would never teach such a thing, they cant even acknowledge our fine achievements from when we had an empire......except to try and make us feel ashamed about it. I have always thought that civil authorities should address members of the public as "Sir & Madam" like many of them do in the US.......its a good reminder that you are a public servant and not some little Hitler 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ossie n Arch 1,682 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Back in '89 whilst on a rugby tour, we had a reception with the local Mayor in a town in France. Small bits of food on big plates and Champange were served. Kind of wasted on 30 Rugby lads. The Mayor was a top bloke and joined in with the "Festivites" (We never treated him any different) untill the bar diving that is. He dipped out of that. But a very nice looking young French lass didn't. She was well up for it. But she was stopped from jumping by the locals. Shame really............. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
