Is Sibton an AB National Treasure?

[DTCwordfan]

Following on from the brilliant Mrs O's "Mick Talbot" thread, the question was seeded.

I give due honour to G.K. Chesterton:


Sibton, you should be on AB at this hour
And so you are. Nor losing grace thereby;
Britain has need of you, and so have I
She is a Northern Irelander. Far as the Sloopy eye can scour,
Emerald fields, and sapphire rivers visible from Clondalkin Tower
To Sibton in the birthland of Giants, she is a Northern Irelander.
Yet this high woman, by choice of Irish men,
Like a tall female volcano rose in power.
Rich living and long drinking are plenty more,
And pure AB "religion" reading “Mrs Overall’s Words”,
And sturdy femalehood sitting still all day
Shrinks, like Blue Rathgore cheese that crumbles to its core;
While our AB digestion, like the House of Lords,
The jollies musings of AB on herself she does lay.


Are there other AB national treasures - and why?

Sibton is indeed a national treasure, but please don't stick her out of the way in a dusty museum xx

Why waste time discussing national treasures when we have our very own crown jewels, reflected in the persona of Mrs O.

[mrs_overall]

mike, I have no interest whatsoever in your crown jewels ;-)

[mike11111]

Look, pet, I am going to work my way into your knickers come Hell or High Water,so just lay back and think of England.

Crumbs DT, thank you for the lovely poem, I am neither national or a treasure, there are so many here better suited to that than me.
To name but a few Mrs_o, mamyalynn, crafty, gness, tinks the list is endless.

Retires, blushing furiously

mike, if you want to work your way into my very expensive Janet Reger silk undies, you will have to stop making reference to comments dating back to 1959

It is a wicked indictment of this selfish Tory/Lib coalition that poor old DT is free to propagate his insane ramblings. Back in the days when we had a caring Labour government, he would have been sectioned.

completely off the mark, Mike; under Labour, I would have been a candidate for Minister of Arts with a massive budget to blow. I see one of their legacies is in Falmouth at the moment, sheltering from the storms, the "Nowhere Island." http://nowhereisland....outh-west/mevagissey/
