"A similar mess over nationality occurs in the sporting world where English children, for example, can hope to play (perhaps managed by a citizen of a nation they may compete against) football for England, rugby-league for England/Great Britain, rugby-union for England/British Isles, athletics for England/U.K., golf for ngland/Europe, cricket for a combined England and Wales, or tennis for Great Britain - but Wimbledon is still The All England Lawn Tennis Championships…Anyone for friendly-rival republics?!"

I'm all for doing away with the monarchy, it's a waste of time, space and money, however it has nothing to do with music, which is my prime interest, and WAV, once more you've cut and pasted much and you said absolutely nothing, and you know what,The All England Tennis thingie, that's something else that needs a close look in terms of, a waste of space, time and money, wait though, I don't believe anyone that is English holds the mens or womens titles currently... Oh Dear! :-D
