For the 27 November, well and truly in the past.

 

 

Truly we should be thankful, truly, truly, truly, truly, truly truly, truancy, truancy, truancy, truancy, trancey, trancey, trancey, trancey, tansy, tansy, tansy, tansy, tacky, tacky, tacky, tacky too-be-doo, too-be-do, too-be-too, too-be-too, do-be-doo-be-doo.

 

 

“Well, we say, God, save the Queen….”

 

 

The point is that the common rhetoric on thanksgiving is welcomed and good, but the political rhetoric on thanksgivings is nuts. It is over before you know it.
