[badboy4life]

[gary baldy]

[paljor]

Ah, but are you sure Mrs Drake wasn't a fella and Sir Francis was the girly ????????? :-)

[Artemis]

Were women allowed to play bowls in those days?

[Peter Pedant]

Queen ELisabeth called him 'a gay dog', but I dont think she meant he was a girlie or did girlie things

[Postdog]

Nah, he#d have spelt his name "Frances" otherwise....

[Toureman]

I am not going to answer this question on the grounds that people might think I am as stupid as the asker!

[bricro]

No ducky!

[jno]

well he wouldn't be a Drake then, would he? This isn't some bright idea out of The Da Vince Code, is it?

[Tatty Rollox]

........ drake is a funny sort of bird ...........

[dotjhawkes]

No, if it was a woman it would be Lady Frances Drake, are some people on here really stupid! There was a TV series (on the tele!) in the early 1960's (that was last century i'e' the 20th century) about him, and it was called I think The Golden Hind, that was the name of his ship, that is a big boat to thick people.

[noxlumos]

Nah, If it was a woman it would be Sir Francis Duck.

Was John Holmes a-sexual?

[bernardo]

No - he was an alien hippopotamus from the Andromeda Galaxy disguised as a man, on a secret mission to steal technology from Microsoft to save his own world. He mucked up his journey to Earth because his suspended-animation thingy malfunctioned, and he landed 400 years too early.

There is absolutely no photographic evidence whatsoever of Francis Drake and Queen Elizabeth being seen together, so they must both have been Francis Bacon.

[mycatis]

PMSL ever wished you hadn't asked a question??

[Don Quixote]

Why is the Rugby anthem of "England" God Save The Queen? Surely that's the anthem of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) and NOT England!!!
