    Past Sell-by Date?

    Vinnie Jones, a third-rate British actor living in Hollywood, casts his intellectual judgment on the United Kingdom by describing it as "Past it's sell-by date". Why some of the press have given publicity to this I don't know but here to prove we are as up-to-date as the rest of the world are a few pictures of the latest in our road transport:

    The steering wheel is on the wrong side.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Uhh What?

    This reminds me of a diner I went to with an rather Posh Englishman and a fellow from down under. All of us were entertained by the little of the slang we could follow as they went to great lengths to poke and prod each other. Some of the time we were just plain confused.

    Now the license plate is backwards. I bet they will drive it on the wrong side of the road as well.
