I never thought I'd see the day

I never thought I'd see the day when the USA would elect a black President.

I never thought I'd see the day when bankers would become more vilified than politicians, or even estate agents.

I never thought I'd see the day when temperatures in the UK would plummet to below those of a domestic freezer.

And I never thought I'd see the day when a man named Shontayne would be chosen to play rugby for England.
