Casca,

The New Son-In-Law is a graduate of U of M. He sports one of their ballcapa at all times (even at the dinner table). Needless to say, his weekend was ruined. My only comment, ‘Do they play Navy? If not its meaningless.’

Ah England,

Enchanted land of mists and coastlines, where fairies still flit about, and ruddy-faced young men dream of becoming a queen…..

Nice culture they’ve got there….

Respects,
