Manhattan Transfer? (See what I've done there? ;0)

"Yeah, but... No, but... innit?"

Jools has popped up in a newspaper article which discusses renaming an area around Greenwich Avenue, Manhattan:

"The streets around Greenwich Avenue in Manhattan would appear to have little in common with village greens and warm beer. However, because of the sheer number of British businesses in the district, Anglophiles in New York are campaigning to have a corner of the island officially renamed Little Britain...

"... Musician Jools Holland said: "There'll be somewhere I can feel at home amongst badly dressed, ill-mannered people that are my fellow countrymen."

We doff our ill-fitted bowler hats in your direction! ;0) :0)

And if any of our readers are wondering why the renaming has tickled our collective British funny bones- take a look at our Little Britain :0)
