Perfect in every way from my corns to my cobblers and my comb-over.

I think one of the most astute things about this coalition is that the 2 parties both realised that there are things that need to be done that will anger their supporters. So now the conservatives can blame cgt on the liberals and the liberals can blame public sector cuts on the conservatives and neither of them will lose face. Unless of course they do. Which is very likely.

When there?s lots of money around nobody seems too bothered about waste but it is naturally the first thing we are going to fixate on.

What, exposing yourself?

Well it is and it isn?t. It?s true that currently a lot of tax payer?s money is wasted on nonsense and we have a right to be annoyed about it. But this comes to the nonsense of people who already earn loads of money complaining about capital gains tax (which we hope will be used to fund public services under our no-doubt fantastically clever and magnanimous conservative lords and masters) when you only need to take a stroll around London to see the deprivation vast swathes of our population live in. Deprivation often exacerbated by the investments of the wealthy. ps. Don't take all my anti tory jibes completely to heart.

I?m also quite partial to steamy dim dums.

I think Charles Kennedy should run.

So you read it as, "Yet just P45 your for asking be won't you hope I but. Though position voluntary a it's.

All is as it should be with the world, the sun is shining, birds are singing and the forum is back to not being what it was again.

Although there are those of us who have thought for decades now that the concepts of left and right wing in politics no longer reflect society and are therefore no longer relevant. They only serve to get people to act along ingrained tribal allegiances but don?t actually correspond with what is really going on in the world. The taxing of people?s investments is a difficult thing though but what would you rather have, a massive increase on the tax burden of the millions of people in this country who can?t afford investments or perhaps wholesale cuts to the public services those people rely on for survival? According to the election results 30 odd% of the people in this country may think that their right to keep 100% of the 50K they made on their second home is more important than a baby getting the treatment it needs to survive but with that sort of attitude they aren?t really people.

Chump yourself.

Silly buggers aside, a good friend of mine is on his 3rd year of home brewing and has been looking for somewhere where he can get different malts to get a bit a variety going.

Nah brew, not with the world cup coming up, it?s going to be way too busy.

Although it now looks like Cable is going to be very definitely playing second fiddle to whoever it is that tells Osborne what to do. So Bertie Wooster?s in charge and they?ve gagged Jeeves in the one area where this country really, really needs to see sense. One hopes the bastards live to choke on this one.

A phobia is an intense and unreasonable fear of something. There is nothing unreasonable about being intensely afraid of bloody great cats that will eat you given half a chance.

smelled 'orrible it did too. You had to get the key off of Maureen in the cafe. I only had to trot 'round once though.

I have no quarrel with anyone called Ann. Anyway I?m a pacifist. An? I?ll effing fight anyone who disagrees with me on that.

If we worshiped in front of a fish would it mean we had to eat a crucified man on Fridays?

I once spent a spring morning in Mallow waiting for a connecting train. It did have mist but no marsh. Only a truck stop.

Give the guy a break ?ey. Who here can honestly say that on any given evening in the bishop they don?t see at least a couple of guys who they feel like punching? Only me?

Dear Silverfox I have fallen over and hurt my knee. In order to curb the pain I would like to explain to it that the hard and abrasive nature of concrete is only a construct institutionalised through reciprocal interactions between knees and concrete and that it will soon go away and the bleeding will stop if it will just accept an alternative version of reality. Any tips?

Bonkers! Mad as pumpkin fudge and not half as buoyant.

This country was heading for a tory government. That was self evident. Thankfully lots of people who would have deserted labour and voted tory found sense and voted for the Lib Dem. Consequently they have managed to use their influence to have a say in the policy of the tory government we were going to get anyway. And from the outset they have scored some points for electoral reform that were desperately needed and will ultimately benefit everyone in the future. I?m no fan of the conservatives but all this knee-jerk, reactionary ?We?ve been betrayed? nonsense is just that. It?s not the best outcome admittedly but it really could have been a lot worse.
