Like one of those older ladies you used to see dancing in pubs with a hits DJ on but no designated dancing area so they’d forced a small circle near the bar and you’re trying get by with four pints in splayed fingers and they’re all ‘try and stop me’ with defiant faces.

Certainly the birth of the scam.
A last thought on today’s anniversary of Athelstan’s coronation 1100 years ago on 4 sept 925. That day he promised that he would rule society high and low with justice and mercy. He was not above the law. The birth perhaps of the idea of the community of the realm?.

I mean, what are we without our flags but an amorphous cloud of shifting unrelated atoms in the depthless void?.
Yvette Cooper tells @TimesRadio that people should feel free to put the St George's flag 'anywhere', including on motorway gantries. 'Oh put 'em up anywhere. I think it's good for us to feel proud of flags, of Union Jacks, but we should also be proud of our British values that.
