Here We Come A-wassailing

I drove down to Cardiff yesterday to see Phil before he emigrated, only to find that almost everyone else in Great Britain was on their way there as well for Armed Forces Day and/or the Paul McCartney gig in the Millennium Stadium enormo dome.

I took the flag of St George off the car at the service station before the Severn Bridge as there's no sense in tempting providence. I hope this wasn't some kind of curse as it won't be going back up now that Germany have walloped England four one and they're out of the World Cup.
