Keep Calm and…

What a fad: Keep Calm and ….

It was originally a saying from the British government as a morale booster during the second World War.  “Keep Calm and Carry On” showed up on propaganda posters but because it was never really circulated on a wide scale, it didn’t quite catch on.  Back in the turn of this century someone found some remaining posters and now the saying is everywhere. The issue of trademark has arisen but I haven’t found anything yet to indicate the US or the UK have definitely deemed the saying trademarkable so it just keeps on keeping calm. Many an entrepreneur on both sides of the pond has decided what to Keep Calm or how to Keep Calm and are cashing in on this now-popular phrase.

In the jolly ol’ spirit of things I’ve come up with my own, and yes, mine do have something to do with the coast and the beach and just my life’s interests.  Hope you find them enjoyable.
