Yes but we won't have to call black pudding boo don wah and we can have dripping on toast for tea instead of bruschetta - although we will all now have to drink wine out of cups with handles (first in a raft of new crazy non-EU directives).

I mean he fuucked it, he should admit it all and challenge his opponents to do likewise, declare a return to a zero tolerance policy on this sheit - mea culpa, the whole bit, he's done nothing compared to the rest but hasn't the guts to hang himself out - stop believing the fecking spin doctors, own up and declare a new approach ... no, probably got to see if that passes the PR guys. It may have been "late, chaotic, inaccurate, uncosted" but it wasn't a business-as-usual-rich-bastards-rip-off-the-public scam like Cameron's old man. The left wing of this country is a fuuucking joke that still lives in fear of the spin Mandelson et al created. I know (deep down) it's a sin but this is why a part of me wants an 'out' vote. I WANT economic chaos, I WANT uncertainty, I WANT the current 'haves' to get a bit of fear in their bellies - sadly I suspect that even such a "catastrophic" vote won't change much.

Do it tomorrow, Saturday. Saturday Saturday.....

Because the Rev was 70 this week...

You don't buy it? Have you ever heard the man!? I find it hard to believe he's ever made a cup of tea without spillage. Of course he's a fumbler and a bumbler - but that wouldn't matter so much if he hadn't turned out to be such a toothless and timid worryguts and a cardigan-and-armchair revolutionary of the most mediocre sort.

Taking the likes of Lou and Farage et al out of the equation for the moment, I don't think it helps to constantly attack and belittle those with an opposing view. Calling them 'Brexiters' and 'Little Englanders' smacks of the time when concerns re immigration saw people condemned as racists. It's Politburo tactics of the slimier sort, smacks of the smug urban elite telling the rest of the UK that they don't know what they're doing and should leave all this to those that do and reminds me (as did watching the oleaginous Peter Mandelson take this very tack the other night) of the worst excesses of New Labour's suffocating bureaucracy. For myself, having been an 'out' I'm now an 'in' (on the info so far) despite the likes of Blairites like BlahBlah rather than because of them.

We have an off night and those fokkers have their best game all year. Kind of fitting for this last night game to be tinged with disappointment though.

I think the: "Please allow me to sit down Expiry [] [] []" -is a bit morbid.

Another great comeback - unfortunately yet another draw which makes four in a row. Still - always nice to put a spoke in the Gooners' ambitions.

This tiresome bollocks again!?

Quite a few Bowie 7"s had good B-sides - best for me was probably Queen Bitch on the back of Rebel Rebel.

I remember some 'Yes' voters in the Scots referendum rejecting the scare stories and the 'fear of the unknown' because they had, in their minds, little or nothing to lose regardless of what changes occurred. They had no comfortable well-paid jobs, were not on the property ladder and saw no prospect of things improving but were surrounded by others who were happy with the status quo telling them not to rock the boat. The real problem with the 'out' campaign is that it lacks a charismatic and credible leader (if it did have then the assorted fringe nutters and closet fascists clinging to the campaign wouldn't count so much). It doesn't matter that the 'in' campaign doesn't have one either as they are only advocating 'do nowt' so will probably swing the argument. When in doubt. Do nowt.

Ronda (up behind Malaga) definitely worth a day trip.

Doubt it the way the WI cricket authorities go about things - more likely this was a hugely successful audition for the IPL.

Rubbery it certainly isnt. Indeed - the Brie de Meaux that sits on that back shelf threatening to ooze over the edge is a spreadable delight and truly one of life's joys.

When they asked for another such mid-week fixture the powers that be (that weren't benefiting from the church's wealth) said "If you want another sing-fest you have it own your own day, i.e. Sunday. Always. We'll bung in a Friday and Monday off work cause people love a long weekend but that's your lot. Oh, and we can't have all that presents stuff twice a year so let's stick to chocolate.*" *see the great "Whitsun?! You're havin' a laugh!" conference of 1826.

Totally depends on the cut - slow cooked breast with fat rendered to leave soft, juice-soaked succulence then blasted at highest heat (ideally with a sugary sticky coating)to provide a crispy charred outer is a thing of joy. Pink best-end which still has a bleat in it and when you can almost taste the grass (grain-fed lamb is unworthy of any such care) is equally fine. Switching the two would be folly.

Never ate in there - but that stupid little turd-stacking bike thing parked outside got up my nose in an irrational way. Any business still using a vintage bike outside deserves short shrift (Wm Rose think on)
