Just testing to see if I still remember how to embed videos. The Parrot sketch is always worth reviewing.

CARRY ON!
This is the image on my new and stylish mug, one of my many purchases made in England this summer (Whittard in Salisbury). It was originally a poster published by the Ministry of Information (or Propaganda?) during the outbreak of WWII in 1939. The crown of King George and the reassuring message was intended to convey to the public that everything possible was being done to defend the country.
I have brought the mug to use at work, since I think the slogan is very appropriate here as well. In my department we have another motto which we quote to each other when the powers that be organise and make decisions we don't necessarily agree with: "Nicht ärgern, nur wunderen", but anglophile as I am, I like this one better.
