Ah, the Freepers, being their usual classy, civilised selves.

This is a type not unknown in other times and climes:

WHEN you've shouted " Rule Britannia," when you've sung " God save the Queen,"

Will you kindly drop a shilling in my little tambourine
For a gentleman in khaki ordered South?


That was Kipling, more than a century ago.
