In the bleak days of nineteen-eighty-three, as England languished in the doldrums of a ruinous monetarist policy, the good and loyal men of the Permanent Assurance Company-- a once-proud family firm, recently fallen in hard times-- strained under the yoke of their oppressive new corporate management.
Pushed beyond the bounds of decent and reasonable victimization, the aged retainers take their destiny in their own hands and-- Mutiny!
And so, the Crimson Permanent Assurance was launched upon the high seas of international finance.
And now for something completely different...
The team of xcalibur (above) would like to express their condolences to your family and friends for taking you away from their humdrum lives. Oh wait, sorry we have to recruit you first. Hang on a tick, just have to get these pages in order...There we go.
