    why do British people insist on calling every fight/argument/pissing match a "row"

    Sounds like Ron. But when confronted, like most bullies, he moved.

    What do they say? Two nations separated by a common language

    The following article by John Cleese of Monty Python fame might amuse you:

    The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in Syria and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.

    Maldives are tiny islands, tiny resorts. You bump into each other constantly. Piss poor comment from RD.

    I can't imagine being less scared, either with squeaky becks shouting at me, or old man Ron lumbering up and lining up the chairs in perfect lines.

    However,t he thought of being front row and posh spice starts singing - worse than being in a Saw film for real

    He hasn't been on the front row for ages so grabbed the opportunity while he could. After a promising start he fell down the grid and ended up at the rear. Poor soul.

    Exactly who among us is surprised that Sir Ron was rude and boorish?

    The last line in the article is the best:

    "Dennis is on gardening leave after his 35-year association with McLaren ended last November."

    'Two into one' ? I'd advise everyone I paid the most for the back row.

    I'm not convinced the seating they were fighting over wasn't at the very back of the venue, and becks was really annoyed he'd be able to hear his wife over the fireworks and general noise, hence big rons insistence he had the seats...... it'd be like New Year's Eve at a rowdy dog kennels with posh and sporty doing their best to destroy a tune - 'we ain't nothing but hound dogs, screeching all the time do do do'
