"Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."
Pierre Trudeau

This year is the
200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, when the British Admiral Lord Nelson's fleet defeated a combined fleet of French and Spanish in a battle which laid the foundation for Britain's Royal Navy "ruling the waves" for over 100 years...



Nelson's flagship HMS Victory is still a functional vessel and can be visited at the
Historic Dockyard in the port city of Portsmouth on the south coast of England.

Last week there was a day-long series of events at Portsmouth to start the commemorations, and ships from all over the world saluted the anniversary and were observed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II - then there was a re-enactment of the battle and a firework display.

Yes, glory for you.... but, don't forget........

Sirs the English, draw the first !
