Every Easter Sunday they are 'rizzen' again but not without a little help from UNESCO perhaps? The Brittannia Coco-nutters have turned to higher authority to save their brand of "intangible cultural heritage". Their plea to the UN's Convention for the Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage has merit IMHO: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304655304579549683642158554?mg=ren o64-wsj&url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FSB1000 1424052702304655304579549683642158554.html (http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304655304579549683642158554?mg=ren o64-wsj&url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FSB1000 1424052702304655304579549683642158554.html) As I recall dimly from the scriptures of my youth, "King David Danced before the Lord in his linen ephod"(Samuel 6:14) how can these guys do less on Easter? I'mhttp://www.mrbreakfast.com/cereal/mascot_61.jpg 'coo-coo' for Coco-nuts! http://si.wsj.net/public/resources/images/BN-CX630_NUTTER_DV_20140522233048.jpg< a blackfaced coco-nutter-in full kit!

If UNESCO blows them off, they should apply to the Ministry of Silly Dances.
