Stop Press: Colonies Revolting.....

Today in history, marks the anniversary of the drawing up of the US Constitution. I’d like to take the opportunity to say well done young’un. I hope you’re doing ok over there without us?

This might be a good chance to point out a slight error is US calendars that may have been over-looked however. For some reason you’ve gone and put down 4th July 1776 as Independence day, when in fact it wasn’t until 3rd Sept 1783 that the treaty of Paris was signed and you actually gained independence.

Just because the kid stamps his feet and says he’s leaving home, doesn’t mean he’s independent until he’s actually out the door. ;-)
