Yee-hah! I'm headed down to the Long Branch saloon to tip a glass of their good stuff to the boys in khaki! (Your American cousins talk and do stuff like that.)
Huzzah! There will be much merriment down The Dog and Duck tonight. A few rounds of "Roll Out The Barrel" and (later) "Eskimo Nell" is in order I believe.
Hurrah for the big guns, but... I fear the resultant butcher's bill may pour some cold water on the public's jubilant mood. Let's hope the authorities don't leave us in the dark for too long.
Let the bells ring out indeed Ian! Wonderful news and from our favorite correspondent no less! An excellent battle ends with a great result!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great (if rather surprising) result indeed Brad!
