keep calm and carry on



i can't remember if i saw this poster with one of you during the who cares weekend or if it was elsewhere with else-one. anyway, the person i was with at the time wondered outloud where the saying came from. i saw this today on a website that sells the posters (click title link to go there):

‘Keep calm and carry on’, a message fly-posted around Britain during World War Two.

YES! we were at that little shop all together when we saw the wonderful poster. i'm going to get it for the nursery, where i'll need it the most. i especially like the crown on the top...like the queen is saying it.

The crown made me laugh, too. What a good idea, Darby, for a nursery.

that poster is great! even better that's it's truly vintage!

crowns are cool. i think you should get a frame like that one too, Darby - adds to the royal flair. :-)
