"but was of its time"


I dunno, It's probably even more relevant today, though as you say, if anything it makes the campaign trail back then look almost charming, parochial and makeshift compared to today's overblown, slick, attackvert filled nonsense.


Modern US political campaigning, now that really IS hateful!

You should try bringing up kids in the countryside! Full of crazies, armed with axes and (legal) shotguns to boot.

I couldn't stop laughing at the "She also gave me twenty pound, even though I only asked for ten"



Do you think his Mother has read his "creative" work ?


Netts:-S

Is this all just some huge reverse psychology bid to get more followers on twitter?


I'll ask to follow you if you'll buy me a burger.


Oh, and have you added your twitter feed to the "who to follow on twitter in ED" thread in the other section? You should.

    • Had a Red Admiral in front driveway today. Hadn't seen one for some time
    • It’s a flat fee levy payable by guests staying in hotel and hostel rooms, so added to the bill.  This already happens in Manchester and Liverpool ( I think in Liverpool it’s a percentage, so the more expensive rooms pay more). I read somewhere that Edinburgh is doing this next year? Charges of this kind are becoming common around the world. I think it absolutely makes sense for Southwark and other boroughs are bound to follow.
    • In  parts of Europe you just get charged tax at the end of your stay somewhere. Usually a couple of quid added to your bill. Most tourists are pretty happy to stump up the cost, as it's an expected expense.  I  think it's a good way to make money and remove the burden from locals.  It's for foreigners, Sue - I'm sure Londoners and brits will still be able to freely cross the borough lines without having to go through checkpoint charlie 🙂 
    • It doesn't work like that. There won't be differential pricing for tourists and residents at any attractions, no checkpoints nor a requirement to carry one's papers with one at all times. A levy is put on hotels, maybe on Air B&Bs, on a bed per night basis. That cash goes to Southwark. It's pretty easy to administer.
