His name is Donald for God's sake!

I'm all for calling a spade a spade. Donald Trump is a racist, xenophobic embarrassment to your country and so are his worshippers. Just sayin'

I stand corrected. The man is a genius and not offensive at all.

Burlington arcade prices are silly. Also they usually have that aloof 'I am somehow superior to you' attitude that you find in many London shops. They're shopkeeprs, tradesmen/women - they need to get over themselves. I go window shopping but would never buy for myself. Much of their stock is rubbish as well.

It is your birthday. You are older. Here is a message: Happy Birthday.

Fantastic. As ever.

Thought I'd try my gen moonie on black NATO, me likey:

Critters - that word makes me laugh every time.

Wrong side! Wrong side!! Check your history

I come from the land of the midnight sun....... Good to see you back, hope IOM was all you expected and more.

Pretty benign until the moment a soldier is ordered to shoot a citizen on the streets and he says "I'm not doing that, he's a British citizen!" then his commanding officer reminds him that his oath is the the (benign) Queen, not his fellow citizen. Now some may say that's far fetched, to them I would say Kent State and Bloody Sunday - just for starters.

Yes we can vote. But not on any of the above. I once asked an eminent lawyer that if, in the UK, we voted for a government that intended to remove the royal family and that was their declared policy how it would actually happen? He told me that within the laws as they stand it is impossible to get rid of the royal family. My reply was - So, we DO live in a dictatorship then?" "Of sorts" he replied.

In the UK we do not elect our head of state. When we 'buy' a piece of land we do not actually own it. We merely own the rights of access to it. True ownership remains with the crown. If we discover valuable minerals in our garden they do not belong to us. Crown property mineral rights prevail. Our armed forces do not swear allegiance to the government, nor the people. Only to the crown. These are just a few examples of facts that demonstrate that there are varying levels of 'democracy'. In light of the above, to complain about the 'undemocratic EU' and by so, imply that the UK is a shining example of democracy in action is nothing short of silly really. Just sayin'

Fantastic

At last! Someone makes a bubble back Love it, fantastic work wiwigh.

Welcome aboard. Hope you've got a keen eye and deep pockets

I don't think you should age the insert either. If you look at a lot of vintage rollies in a collectors shop you'll see that the old bezels are more often than not in remarkably good, that is to say, dark black condition. Lovely piece wear it well.

Looks like another stunning 1665 is going to be born

Just joined the big crown club:

Great to see that plexi on such a fantastic build. Great stuff, wear it well.

That sounds like a must have stocking filler. Can you transpose pictures of your own kids onto the elves heads?
