Yesterday I took my usual walk into the West End from Victoria.

Past Buckingham Palace, through St James's Park to Birdcage Walk, past King Charles St and Horseguards Parade, the Admiralty and Trafalgar Square, and it struck me that as an expression of Imperial power, London really does a rather good job.

I eyes filled with patriotic tears as I considered the Great Men who built this nation; The Duke of Wellington, Nelson, Churchill, William Hague. Surely their courage, steadfastness and devotion to duty burns in the soul of every true Englishman?

I think everything's going to be alright after all.

I can't believe you missed out the Duke of York. He had ten thousand men.

Marched them up to the top of the hill,
And he marched them down again.

Mind you, if he 'had ten thousand men' he might have had a sore willy after all that.
