What a laugh - I think by that, Gilly really means some of us might have sub-normal intellectual capacity My choices Winston S Churchill - Whom I will now paraphrase his famous speech (sorry folks if you don't underatand what that word means)Never in the field of CS Lounging has so much banality been requested from so many, by so few Apologies to the great man
costagirl: Not to forget Cromwells infamous witch hunts, and his equally infamous witch finder general
red2 - Red3 Lady C Yeah - Vincent Price did a good job playing Matthew Hopkins in the film but be careful - You also need no tin hat to demonstrate any alleged reading capability
Winston Chuchill!!!! The man who ordered troops to shoot striking miners and couldn't make up his mind which side of the political fence he wanted to be on? One week a Liberal, then a Tory, then back again and finally when the Liberals were going to lose back to the Tories. Finally getting booted out in 1945 a the war changed attitudes far more than the Firt WW. Not exactly an Englishman but John Maynard Keynes, Charles Dickens, Isacc Newton, Wren, anymore thoughts on this???

i wonder how many members can actually talk about english history for any length of time whilst keeping people of who they're talking about ?
i went to Aspey house in london once better AS number one londonat hype park , it was given to the duke of wellington for defeating napoleon at the battle of waterloo by british government. and at the time was the next door nieghbour to buckingham palace.
they have a fancy dress ball every year in the museum part of it , the present duke and his heir still lives there ( or use to about 20 years ago ) !
it would be interesting to find out the story before that famous battle between the british general wellington and the french general napoleon and why britian and france were at war

Wow - Such typical Gilly intellect, and wrong in that Sir Douglas Bader had two tin legs and played Golf long after he retired as a Group Captain after the war which made him even more remarkable.
Maybe it really IS the tinfoil causing heat problems for the Gillybrain after all Folks
