Hurrah! The Empire celebrates this evening as that fine chappie Andy Murray beats some Central European cove at Wimbledon in three sets to claim the championship, the first chap from the mother country to win on home soil since 1936! Off to celebrate with a Pimms No. 1 cup and see if there are some Frenchmen one could give a good thrashing to...
Whats the humdrum about Chaps? Adventures into Victorian Science Fiction and Steampunk with ramblings about Aeronefs, Dirigibles, Land Ironclads, Anarchists, Dinosaur Hunting, Terranefs, Aquanefs, Mad Scientists, and all manner of electric contraptions and steam conveyances. It may not make sense, but there will be claret and a nice cheese board at the end. Tally-Ho and "Vôtre dans une sauce au vin blanc!"

Lions Maul Wallabies Down Under!
What ho! Chaps! Enjoying a fine pint of India Pale Ale here as I toast the brave chaps of the British and Irish Lions rugger team who have triumphed in their tour of Down Under stuffing the Aussies 41 to 16 in the third and decisive test! Hurrah for our boys! The Ashes next eh? Pip, pip!
