Actually, it is exactly the same.

A serious one will suffice.

But Denis was one of us - he was a member of the golf club. Drank the place dry.

Mis-attributed to her. From wiki...


"A man who, beyond the age of 26, finds himself on a bus can count himself as a failure."


Attributed to her in Commons debates, 2003-07-02, column 407 and Commons debates, 2004-06-15 column 697. According to a letter to the Daily Telegraph by Alistair Cooke on 2 November 2006, this sentiment originated with Loelia Ponsonby, one of the wives of 2nd Duke of Westminster who said "Anybody seen in a bus over the age of 30 has been a failure in life". In a letter published the next day, also in the Daily Telegraph, Hugo Vickers claims Loelia Ponsonby admitted to him that she had borrowed it from Brian Howard. There is no solid evidence that Margaret Thatcher ever quoted this statement with approval, or indeed shared the sentiment.

Oh Mrs T is still with us. I can honestly say that I there is not another women still living detest more

We used to say Maggie may be a women but she is not a sister.

Most great women have songs written about them in reverence but doesn?t Mrs T have songs about condemnation of her, Elvis Costello?s Tramp the dirt down.

Simply Red also had a song which I forget the title and am sure Billy Bragg has several

One of Thatcher's failings was she thought she could play judge and jury.

It's worthy of note that, 30 year papers have revealed, that the UK gov't at the time of the hunger strikes was making overtures to address some of IRA demand in order to allow the IRA to call off the hunger strikes - these were rejected by the IRA. I assume as they preferred to have martyrs for a cause that a negotiated concession to their demands.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
