The Conqistadores were known to shout Cheesu Maria as a rallying cry when hard beset by the Mexicans (I realise many of you have never had an opportunity to hear about these).

I think we should wait for Techno to finish his Walpoling  activities before continuing this so he can join in

I didn't expect the War of the Spanish Succession!

It is worrying , on the news tonight  some woman  from  the snp. Says The war of the Scottish succession  isn't  over.

The Germans and  French  are worried about the war of the British Succession.
Then someone said they hadn't invaded yet. Someone else said  they  all voted to surrender in 1970 something

That would be Nicola Sturgeon ... she's right! Though to be fair it's the War of Scottish Secession

She looks tougher than  any of the others. So she won the SNP Succession. It's close to 50/50 but a lot voted to leave because they didn't like the Tories  and after all the claims of what the English have done and vice versa. A lot voted out because they think it's like the Hokey Kokey  or a football game, also very few if any of the voters have seen the books an look what happened to Lloyd's when they bought RBS.

A lot voted against because they were repeatedly lied to and subjected to scare stories by the media and the Westminster parties. I always reckoned that, whichever way it went, at least half of those who voted for the winning option would not get what they thought they were voting for.

So far we are involved in another Middle Eastern war, look set to be out of the EU and "the vow" looks to be less like a promise and more like an act of desperation that will be watered down to nothing. I didn't particularly want independence but I want what we seem to be heading for even less. More power to Nicola Sturgeon's elbow, I say.
