  1. I love how not one of those politicians claps at the same time as any other, they clearly have no sense of rhythm whatsoever. I think this demonstrates why they are politicians, and not musicians…although some of them I don’t think should be either.

    I really miss the Olypics! I watched so many sports I wouldn’t have usually watched and really enjoyed every single one!

    Plus, Britain suddenly became all patriotic and optimistic. We cheered on everybody, British or not (but especially the British), and we happy with whatever medal colour we received. Even happy with last place and ‘The Experience’. I think it made us look rather mature and fair as a country, It was good to see.

    1. Thumbs up for saying everything I forgot to.

      Politicians should be voted in based on their ability to attempt to dance. I like Boris.

    What is it with politicians dancing? It’s like they all got the grandad gene for dance moves. and it’s always dance moves from yeeeeeeeeeeeeears ago. or spongo dancing – that’s just where you repeat the same movements (usually just hands though possibly with the addition of ‘dancing round the handbags’ legs) over and over again regardless of the rhythm of the music!
    Politics would be so much more entertaining if general elections were based on ability to dance. like x factor auditions – though I detest such programs with a fervent passion! or strictly come dancing – not that I’ve ever watched that either. but anyhow – dance auditions, that’s the future of politics. But not to be confused with the Politics Of Dancing, an 80’s hit.
    None of which has much to do with your post – but it shows I read down to the very end:)

    And … “Blame my Queen dancing into the small hours.” You’re being all patriotic then you blame the Queen, your Queen, for her dancing into the small hours. How do you know this? Were you there? What was she dancing to? Was it just she was in a party mood? Oh wait, not “Blame my Queen, dancing into the small hours” but “Blame it on the fact I was dancing to Queen into the small hours.”

    1. “And the Dad Danceoff Award goes to…” I would definitely have more respect for politicians if I knew they could dance.

      I was dancing to Queen… But I bet the Queen’s danced to Queen. To ‘Killer Queen’.

      😀

      I’ll stop now.
