To: Mr & Mrs J. Hall, Box 49 Eikenhof (TVL) Johannesburg Afrique du Sud. 28.3.76 Dear John and Nola, Today a week ago we were still in New Delhi with Eve and Tony and the boys and the whole thing looks like a dream. We arrived on the 28.2 in New Delhi and were happy to see the whole family fit and in good health. The boys have grown very much, Phil is just about the size of Tony and the twins are above average. We stayed untill the 22nd March, as our visa ran out and we did not want to go through all the ceremony of asking for an extension. It also got hotter and I don't know how I would have supported the heat. The extra week would also have passed, so we decided not to go to all the trouble with the authorities and leave on the 22nd. I cannot tell you how happy we have been to see such a lovely family, so happy and united. It is rare to experience sucha thing and we have both all the reasons to be proud of them (when I say goth I mean you and us ). There is su

In case you hadn't noticed, Kate Middleton is NOT ROYAL, she's a regular title-free person. And the Queen is not the embodiment of the government, she's the embodiment of HISTORY, the rather grand history of the country!
ReplyDeleteAnd PS, British imperialism no longer exists. America, that supposed symbol of great democracy and freedom, is currently the most imperialistic country in the world. They have their own military in Germany, Japan, and Korea, wars that have been essentially over for decades, and have butted in in the Middle East where they were not needed and certainly not needed. And HELLO, the fascist sympathiser you mentioned? Edward VIII? HE GOT KICKED OUT.
ReplyDeleteYes but he was not kicked out for being a fascist sympathiser. I acknowledge the fact that as head of state the Queen embodies Britain - as a president would. But the principle of monarchy itself is offensive and anachronistic.
