Queuing

Another thing that suggests that we English are the Chosen People is the fact that, like Jesus, we know how to queue. Anyone who has visited Abroad will know that Foreigners don't know how to queue properly.

Jesus, on the other hand, was clearly proto-English, because in all the illustrations I've seen of his baptism, he's been waiting very patiently in line for his turn. No barging to the front. No forming a delta-like huddle and jostling to get forward. No. He was in a queue.

So far my research hasn't thrown one up, but I'm certain that there's an Anglo-Catholic chapel somewhere near Sandwich dedicated to Our Lady of the Queue, and I'm considering asking the Archdruid to research a suitable liturgy for today, based around lines of patient English people.
