Can't believe I missed Nige. I turned Proms on about 15 minutes ago because there is something so quintessentially British about Rule Britannia and Land of Hope and Glory etc. It's ace.

And who else had the words "We hate Nottingham Forest" in their head>

Rule Brittania now. I love being British, if countries were football clubs Britain would be Villa. The one with all the class and tradition.

Yet, ultimately, the one nobody really cares about, and have never won anything for many, many years?

The one that flexes its muscles occasionally and makes the world realise how how lucky it is to have us.

The thing I like about Nigel Kennedy is that, occasionally, I hear fans of other clubs speak disparagingly of him, as if he's some sort of typical celebrity "fan" whose allegiance is just an issue for popularity and common man appeal (Cameron, Blair, plus many others), but I can put them right and explain how they're actually totally wrong.

No adjective can describe him?

Brilliant ?

Wimbledon? Olympic gold medals? Tha Ashes? Wars?

Or are you on about the Eurovision song contest?
