[Zacs-Master]

You forgot to close with 'mwaaaaahahahaha', ZM

[Peter Pedant]

Oh and in 1945 some old bugga was asked what he had done in the war
and he said - O I commanded the Royal Navy fleet in the pacific
and was told - o god I didnt think we had one ....

well the OP is snotty and sneering so why cant I write loopy answers?

[Zacs-Master]

It was implied (along with a swish of my cape, covering up half my face).

[Peter Pedant]

asnd the OP forgot to add
"kissy wissy Pootie baby - I always wear my mazies when I open doors!"

[Peter Pedant]

NO I think he didnt want to affect brexit
BUT
he wanted to pay the Japanese back for pulling out of the nuclear deal and he cant tell the chinese from the japanese - just like dear old dook of Edinburgh

[JF85]

Can't tell Chinese from Japanese? He could ask Jeremy Hunt. That must be a cosy marriage :-)
