"Twa corbies": Social realist version

While out on an early morning walkie in the Oxford University Gardens, waddling across cricket greens and along country lanes, Lord Bassington-Bassington happened upon a most wonderful sight: Twa corbies frolicking on a tennis court.


Surely this deserves a spot on the list of The 41 Most British Things That Have Ever Happened?

  3. I find that thought slightly disturbing. Is that wrong of me?
