Yeah, then we could lock him in the cellar and get him hooked on Heroin(finer temptress) like Gene Hackmans character in French Connection II, then we could get Kathy Bates to Hobble him, then..then..then we could get Hannibal Lecter to eat his liver with some fava beans and a little Chianti(although what with him being a dour presbyterian Scot, maybe Irn-Bru would suffice)...oh,what would you 'say' to him...f**k off Jock or something.

Or I think I'd ask him to hold the line and then go off and find my 'Mr T' talking keyring and play various of the good man's phrases down the 'phone to him. It's good inasmuch as whenn the button is hit repeatedly it has the same effect as 'scratching' a record. 'IIIII piiiity ttttttthhheeee foooool' and so on.

Nothing to do with politics, or whether I think he might be a good PM but just the way I treat cold callers.

I'd ask him why he wanted it so much, if he's now so hell-bent on throwing it away.


I'd also ask him why when the country spoke pretty much en masse in 1997 and said yes, we'd like change please, we want a properly equipped NHS and better schools and we're prepared to pay for them, they didn't manage to deliver. Big ask I know, but that's what governments are for.

    • Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.
    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
    • The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
