    You're just not thinking tropically enough.
    I wish more US Games would happen in the cool months. Wearing your woolens in 80+F heat is not as much fun as it might sound.

    I wonder if "going regimental" didn't develop in the colonies. Almost every area of the empire, other than Canada, was more tropical than the British Isles.

    So now we know just how the regiments gained their fame. They weren't ferocious just chapped. LOL

    I wouldn't be suprised! Seems like being irritated in a particular area may not put someone in a very harmonious mood!
