It may have something to do with the Gilbert and Sullivan festival, which is on at the moment. Somehow I think there is an overlap there between: Canadians, knitting, naff operetta and lamp-posts. I bet it is the same people who are amused by HMS Pinafore and try to annex other people's lamp-posts. There may be some link to Land of Hope and Glory there as well.
Came home to a hot chocolate with LOTS of marshmallows to get over the kerfuffle. Relaxed and flicked through new books (for a total of £3.97 from the works): Selected Poems, Christina Rossetti, Selected Poems, John Donne (actually that's Miss Aimson's, she's going to study Eng. Lit. at Uni), and Green Men and White Swans, The Folklore of British Pub Names, Jacqueline Simpson.
Here is a photogram of some knitting:
