BBC's poster child on the evening news was a lady who was 8yrs old on VE day.

Don't despair.

It's only another 11 years to the 75th anniversary of Suez.

Who is going to want to commemorate our defeat by the Americans?

Well Roland for a start; if it gives him the chance of being a poster child
on the TV.

Its pretty obvious he's rather miffed at missing out on VE Day.

Where on earth do you get that idea.

Are you stating categorically that if given the chance of being a
poster child, you would in all circumstances refuse ?

I've been what you might call a bit of a poster chid a few times, but
nothing to do with being miffed at missing VE day.
