What is it with old people these days? Just lazing about and sipping lattes, probably.
First seven characters are comments, for sorting the cards automatically if you drop them on the floor, obviously. Strictly 80 characters per line.
UK’s version of Geert Wilders, but probably a fair bit smellier for all the fags and ales he consumes.

‘Operation Early Dawn’ - who comes up with the names? I’m cringing so hard my cheeks hurt!
