           THE HOLE TOOTH


Thatcher !Gotcha watcher

Margaret (Hilda) Thatcher, better known perhaps as Dame Grand Cross of the Croatian Grand Order of King Dmitar Zvonimir, has spoken candidly about her controversial decision as PM to sink the cruiser Belgrano during the 1982 Falklands War:
      All the hoo-ha then made me cross, so very cross. . .  (though) .. I must admit that at that moment in time I might not have been thinking quite as straight as HMS Conqueror's aim.  So when the 'Conk' hit the General (Belgrano) I was somewhat miffed, to be perfectly honest;  I was specifically saving that torpedo for Liverpool.
