has Britain giving back the six counties or am i missing something

I haven’t seen any news, so far. I’m guessing it’s not a declaration that would get buried on page 5 or whatever.

Does this mean there are no rivers in Egypt?

There won't be once the Ethiopians start filling their damned dam.

Presumably, Orang Utan, by your logic the Milky Way is the biggest galaxy up your bum.

which they are most certainly gonna do. Can’t blame them really. The Egyptians can still move to either sea they are surrounded by.

I’ve done it in Call of Duty. It’s easy and quite safe.

Stupidity I think. She seems to hold the Isle of Wight regime responsible

SBS (SAS BUT BOAT) is their new motto.

WHAT?! Didn't you wake up singing Rule Britannia today in honour of the glorious defeat of the Somali/Nigerian/whatevs navy in the great Battle of the Isle of Wight by our brave boys? Lorraine from London will be after you for the Tower of London if not.

Britain's not an island, and it's French. You must mean Great Britain.

Great Britain is a continent.

Must be. Otherwise we'd be part of Europe or something.

No. Britain is the biggest island in the British Isles.

No Great Britain is the largest island in the archipelago, by its, possibly imperialist, name you are referring to.

Brittany, the peninsula on the North-West coast of Europe was once referred to as Lesser Britain, because it was settled by Britons fleeing Anglo-Saxon invasions

It's not French it's under French colonial occupation.

It doesn't sound like the hostage takers had much in the way of weapons, or aggression for that matter, they must have been bricking it when they heard the helicopters landing the rescue party.

I was trying to recall that, but Juggernaut kept popping into my head!
