Wellington - 1769-1852 And Bonaparte - 1769-1821

'England is a nation of shopkeepers' was never said by Bonaparte but it was those self-same tradesmen who kicked Napoleon’s **** and when at Waterloo they met as he won the day to give it a positive spin one may only say, "Wellington put the boot in!"
