  • Well it's obvious, isn't it...

    'short skirt' leads to Mini, a la Mary Quant and also namesake of the contemporaneous car designed by Sir Alec Issigonis, whose parentage was part Greek, part German and who as a British subject was evacuated to Malta in his early life...Malta was once governed by the Knights Templar whose symbol, the maltese cross, remains a symbol of the island. The answer to the question 'How do you make a maltese cross?' is, as every schoolchild knows, 'stamp on his foot!'...and where else would you go for stamps if not Stanley Gibbons philataleists on the Strand:... just down the road from Charing Cross rail staion. and that's you're tag right there!: the only Crossrail site under construction with a Robert Burns connection.
