A side step from the BoB,
Someone I knew who I was friends with on Book Face (I hasten to add I am no longer friends with) commented on another friends post with the following;
RIP Nelson (relating to the late Nelson Mandela) - you were a hero!
My 'friend' didn't he die at sea.
'You mean Horatio Nelson'
'Friend' - Do I.
Genuinely cretinous, no idea about anything.
Not only was history at school a personal favourite of mine, but also its respectful to know and understand about the most basic of British history.
Sadly the only things most 'youngsters' care about now are Vajazzles and Celeb Big brother!
**I'm 23 btw** - and don't do either of the above
