Ummm. Its white sheep, on a red background.
Perhaps she was commenting on the state of white Britain in a neo-marxist society.

The reason it was infamous is the placement of the black sheep over the breast - look for it - once seen kinda hard to miss.

I remember Christopher Hitchens describing her as being self-absorbed and entitled child. I couldn't see it through all the fawning media propaganda, but I believe it more now.

I liked Diana but she was unbelievably stupid to date Dodi Fayed.
He had a LONG record of dating high profile women and then kicking them to the curb for someone younger.

Well in this case both Diana and Dodi got kicked to the curb simultaneously.
At high speed.

She sent it back to the maker,
Warm and Wonderful, for repairs when it was damaged.
My question is, "Did they fix it?"

Was the sheep auctioned off or did it end up as rack of lamb?
