If the Scottish want to break away, I shall stand on Hadrian's Wall with a teary handkerchief, and say: 'Good riddance to the lot of you, and take your stupid bagpipes with you.'
football lasts slow-motion
If a football official were to call for a slow-motion replay every time Didier Drogba fell over, each match would last about six weeks.
men differences feminist
Unlike furious thin-lipped feminists, I tend not to draw distinctions between men and women, apart from in bed where you really do need to spot the difference.
