Oh, the grand old Duke of York (not Andrew)
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up to the top of the hill
And he marched them down again

And when they were up they were up...
etc.

I think you're right Mups.

I, also, often confuse The Hokey Kokey with the EU.

Far more interesting things to talk about.
