WAV's not watching the French Open (the home of Real tennis as opposed to Lawn tennis), Volgadon, because it's raining at Roland Garos. Critics often mention cut-off points for English culture, and evolution/change, when it's mainly a case of REPLACEMENT: i.e, if an English person is singing an American song in an American accent they are not performing an aspect of their own English culture/if a Swedish tune is being played at a session of English folkies, one of our many fine English tunes is not being heard.
And, as for English, French and archery, I'm not going to give a one-fingered-salute!
Yours sincerely
