    when in Rome, do what the Romans do
    I must away now, I can no longer tarry
    This morning's tempest I have to cross
    I must be guided without a stumble
    Into the arms I love the most

        he who laughs last, laughs longest
        I must away now, I can no longer tarry
        This morning's tempest I have to cross
        I must be guided without a stumble
        Into the arms I love the most

                London Pride has been handed down to us.
                London Pride is a flower that's free.
                London Pride means our own dear town to us,
                And our pride it for ever will be.

                  In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice they are different.

                  For some reason this one makes me think of the EU! (Where in theory everybody will be better off.)

                    one of the Europhiles arguements for staying in is there has been no conflict in Europe (Balkans???) for 70 years. Merkel may have put an end to that cobblers
