I have a Tory friend. Just the one, I think. He's a very nice chap, did extremely well for himself. We tend not to talk politics, as there is really no point. And anyway, there's a bit of jealousy on my side, that he's got a stash in the bank and owns a few houses. One problem I can see, is that if the relationship goes somewhere, I presume you will have to meet his friend and possibly family. Are they Tory too? One on their own I can deal with, but a cluster of them, it could become a bit of a problem. In situations like that, I find myself becoming very Old Labour. I suppose it depends on why he's a Tory. If he's an out and out fascist, I'd steer clear. Unless he's drop dead gorgeous, then all bets are off. Is it me, or do most Tory women have a propensity for podginess?
