By the way LadyMuck it is our Cup - we actually got to keep it after winning it 5 times, the one the Red&Whites are holding was a new one melted down from some old lead piping beneath a Manchester sewage plant (hence why it takes both Rio and Giggs to hold it) ;-)

Back to topic, I assume he didn't mean football.

I consider myself Socialist side of left, so feel very let down by all parties.

A very nice leaflet was pushed through my door yesterday featuring a 20 yr old student who is running for the Workers Socialist Party. I was very tempted to consider until I read through and was appalled at the atrocious spelling and several contradictions within the leaflet. Now I'm stuffed!

But Mr. Pallywotsitoos Sir, the Football Focus thread got too aggressive...open Man. U Fans were mercilessly bullied and therefore the remainder of Man. U fans were closeted...add to that the fact that the majority of posters did not appreciate repeat postings of George Best...I got scared, so I ran away...boo hoo

I also have not seen any Tory window stickers round here, or had anyone from their party round here. Or LibDems either. Labour lot came round and I asked them a heap of questions of things that concern me (free prescriptions - GBrown had said he would!) and they said all the 'right' things. Oh Christ I have no choice.

Tough. Stop following soccer-ball and do something more productive with your time.

Mr. Pallywotsitoos Sir, what could be more productive than following and supporting the most successful football team on the planet pray tell?


Moreover, and with the greatest of respect Oh Chief Bhuna of Poppadoms, this thread is entitled "Are there any reds out there...". This in itself does not preclude the citation of football teams provided they are "red" of course and therefore I am well within my rights to act as I have. However, as I do not wish to cause our esteemed Chief Naan Bread Bhuna undue grief, I shall instead

. Please feel free to join in at any time.

Despite Brown looking haggard and tired I thought that his performance today was good. He looked a bit ragged as though he had his heart, soul and sleep into this final push.


How do people rank the various leaders in tonight's debate?


I rank them:


Brown: 9/10

Clegg: 8/10

Cameron: 6/10


Not sure how many of you would agree.

There's another thread for the performance of the 'leaders'.

Jenny Jones: HA, if she came a-knocking on my door she'd have a shock.

She fought long and hard against the idea that motorcyclists should be allowed to ride in the TfL bus lanes.

Boris had said he would do this, as part of his manifesto, and by heck he actually did it! And there has been no carnage. When J Jones was banging on about why not, I emailed her and asked her what her problem was, she replied (and I kept the email): "bikers are scary for us". Very scientific reason there, then.


I think I have to vote Labour, even though i hate their biometric ID card thing.

They're more right wing in some ways than Cameron who has said he'd get rid of the idea (for now!) of biometric ID cards.


Ho hum. I need to change my doorbell sound to that of a Ducati Monster with bad exhaust pipes starting up. That'll scare those Greens off.

I think it might take a bit more than that; Caroline Lucas and Jenny Jones strike me as two pretty strong-minded and determined women...

I watched it on tape after the football, and I scored it as: -


Brown: 5/10

Clegg: 3/10

Cameron: 7/10

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      By marctt · Posted

      If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      By Laddy Muck · Posted

      Ahh shame about the cost of replacing the battery - especially (and I am assuming here) as the car probably isn't worth that much.  I do, however, think your decision is better than scrapping the car.  I will still update the results of our "experiment" in case this is of interest to others.  I absolutely refuse to scrap an otherwise perfectly good vehicle (especially as ours is ULEZ compliant - despite its age).  Nor am I enamoured with the idea of driving more just to keep the battery going.  If this little £35 gadget does the business then I shall be very happy.  We shall see......... Enjoy all those extra journeys, though if our gadget works then you might benefit from purchasing one and trickle-charging from time to time to save you having to make them.
