I did.

In truth she cared litle more about the Falklands than she did for the
miners. The Falklands War was all about saving her political skin.



Wrong -- Mr Giles !
She was correct in sorting out both in the manners executed.
She cared for both. Only one was worthy of saving.

I knew immediately when the Argentinans put their flag up on the Falklands
there would be a war about it.
We think they are ours and they think they are theirs, but the Falkland

So, bad luck Argentina. You lost.
Whether it was worth losing lives it is another thing to ponder about.

And this has got what to do with gardening?

It's a source of Bull Sh** a good source of fertility if spread about
properly.

Any others spring to mind?
