[BITList] Romney tells it how it is

[HUGH]

Colin,

Is there no beginning to this man's intelligence?

Apropos similar - in, I think, Friday's Herald, there was mention of the experience a chap had not long ago in the US.  He arrived at some dismal town and got lost in a rundown area - he was driving, and tired, and needed to find somewhere with a bed.  A motel hove into view and he made his way to the check-in place.  The lady demanded ID and he handed her his UK passport which had written on the front, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (in capitals). She looked at the photo and returned the passport to him.  "Where you from," she asked.  "Glasgow," he said.  "That's in Germany, ain't it?" was the startling response.  She told him it would be 65 dollars and not to answer the door if anyone knocked.

Hugh.
