Tame fare: I once had a pair of Scottish pants, which were bright yellow and had a red lion rampant emblazoned across the front. At times of high excitement the lion would appear to pounce, which I thought both patriotic and only good manners so any ladies might know my intentions.
Good lord !
I hear there are England condoms available as well with the legend
"Stand Proud For England" written on the packaging.
What does this mean ? Why have the Guardian not written about this profalactyic phenomena ?
