(I think he means NOMBY). I have been wearing ear plugs that shut out everything for several years now as I was woken at 4am and could not get back to sleep. I realised how bad it was when I actually slept right through the night with the windows open once...9/11- and there were no planes.

I'm trying to decide if she would be a better option than George Galloway....bring back the Monster Raving Loonies please...at least they didn't try to pretend that are sane. (btw I've never voted Labour and I'm not about to start now)

One should definitely NOT be seen with a poly bag in ED for fear of being slagged off in the street. I am very grateful for my free bus pass so that I can p*ss off out of ED (where I have lived for >30 years) whenever the opportunity arises.
