Song Sung Blue For The Empress
Yesterday I blogged a postscript, Victoria Cross-Connection, to Sandip Madan's perceptive comment about the reign of Queen Victoria. But I just realised I should add a PS to that as well. As you know, Victoria was best remembered for the haughty comment, ``We are not amused''. But it's worth mentioning the circumstances in which that the famous one-liner was delivered. Turns out that the monarch uttered the immortal words when told the name of a tune she admired was (shock, horror) ``Come Where The Beer Is Cheaper''.
