Now, now. Go easy on poor old Covette, he is having a bad day. Although a Brit finished second she is in fact from Wigan and so therefore a 'Northerner' and not a true WASP. To quote Wehner, ' “Northerners” are working-class people, not well educated, and their lives are full of struggle and conflict. According to many preconceptions a male Northerner is unhealthy, badly dressed and frank about sex. Further cliché attributes are pragmatic, direct and even rude, but also down-to-earth, passionate and heartily. Northerners feel alienated from the government in the “centre” London and distinguish between “us” and “them” which creates to a strong sense of community.'
We are all familiar with Covette's opinion of people born south of the English Channel but it is likely he also has reservations about people born north of the Watford Gap.
I dont know about covette, but i admit to being totally owned by this post (except wasps are american, the phrase 'englis rose' would probably be better. The english channel also does not have directions, you are either born on the correct side of it or not. Finally this associaiton with watford gap is ludicrous, i prefer newbury, or maybe the m4 at a pinch.)

And you can't take Wigan girls out anywhere, it seems.

Alternatively, the dutiful communist appriach:
'I did this for our Great Leader and for the love of my Great Country, the Socialist Communist Set of Republics of ChinRussia".
Absolutely! I'll take an honest and joyful "What the f***!" any day over the other crap.

Pretty wild progression from 2:02.85 in a year. Not at all dodgy.
There were only two english women in the final.
