Then Mick, you should read Vox by Nicholson Baker.

Ooh no, not allergic - just can't stand the blighters.

Quite so Jah, quite so. Sorry Iain, nothing personal, pet (no pun intended) peeve.

Haha, nice one Quids - you're quite right, it isn't a bad way to behave. That said, Liddle really is a tit and a half. As for the Catherine Bennett article - she's very far from being the first person to say it, and am inclined to agree with her in regard to the need to toe the middle-class liberal line. However Sean's right - it does ring a little hollow when journalists claim that only their views count, and not the views of the unwashed masses (please don't stop reading me, please don't stop loving me) When the right-wingers become as prevalent online as the bleeding hearts, that's when we'll get some interesting debate. But they're probably all too busy out ripping foxes to shreds with their slavering dogs to fritter away time on t'internet ;-)

Are there any real men still left in the world, the ones who don't have cats?

Gorgeous

Haha, only kidding Mick. But good reminder - next time I'm dining with a gentleman, I'll expect him to be forthcoming with the single malt!

Hmm, dunno you old cynic, you'd have to ask his missus. Signed, RosieH, Spinster of the Parish

Aaaghh - My Head Might Explode Which oh which to despise more, the twat-faced fucker or the paper reporting on the twat-faced fucker? Quids, I might need some help on this one...

Lagavulin's rather good. Even better when it's someone else's you're drinking..!

Ahh, lovely Bubbs...

Yep, solvents can work - dry cleaning would do the job. However as it's on school trousers, I'd try giving the freezer a go first of all - cheapest way and works a charm provided there isn't a nap (or sequins) to get caught in the gum.

I hide my Telegraph inside my Filament magazine - but I have to fold it really small, and it's like that law of 7 folds or something, because the inserts for walk in baths always fall on the floor, rendering my lady-porn cool obsolete.

What on earth? Handbags at dawn ladies.

No Huguenot. No no no. Generally I bow to your all-round right-mindedness and guardianship of all things correct, but in this instance, you are just plain wrong. Shouldn't be there? Like Lloyd's of London or Guy's and St Thomas' ? Sainsbury's it is, and Sainsbury's it remains, Huguenot's 22.3 law of accepted parlance and headline writing notwithstanding.

Ahh, then foolhardy in the extreme - also, suede, in the wet, what was she thinking? She'll smell like a wet dog come lunchtime

Oh yes, indubitably.

Merely the exception that proves the rule lb - s'all it is

Hahaha, poor legalbeagle - we've all been there. I used to rant and rave about greengrocers selling TOM'S, assuming the apostrophe incorrectly denoted a plural, until someone pointed out to me that it was to denote the missing letters. Oh the shame. Apologies for offtopication...

sorry legalbeagle, but Sainsbury's does have an apostrophe - J Sainsbury or Sainsbury's, but not Sainsburys. Sorry again, but the inner pedant got the better of me. But you're right - nice staff in there (of course, I can't vouch for every single one of them...)
