Differant strokes...

For different folk. "Folk" as in "nations."

Judging by this article in The Sun, the fact that Liz the Deuce's grandson is getting an armed guard on the day of his wedding is news.

And not just news, but rather scandalous news at that.  The comments are eye-opening.

Reminds me of an article I read years ago in which some sage was pointing out that it was actually rather odd, when you think of it, (ass-you-me'ing you're an American) that Ian Fleming felt it necessary to make a point that Bond, James Bond is licensed to kill. He's a secret agent, he has a gun, of course he's "licensed to kill"!

Now, if you will excuse me, I'm going to go light a candle before my Lares and Penates and thank them for leaving Blighty...
