Well Cressida has sprung in to action and promised to investigate,me being me and my username I should be happy that this is another brick removed from the regal edifice.

The only fly in the ointment  being the prospect of a president Bliar type.

If they expect the edifice to survive they really need to skip a generation and bin the big eared one and his confidant.

That always amused me her being described when he was married to Di as being his confidant instead of bit on the side.

Charities that are nothing of the kind,also people who started life as putting toothpaste on a brush for the poor unfortunate who found it so tedious.

Still you can progress to being indispensable more than once,the sort of person you need on tap (that was a joke btw).

Yes if you have the cash forget the dinghies and all that rubbish pass go but don't collect £200 shell out considerably and you've won the game.

Look to the future in big ears.

Anyway this does grind my gears.

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

Borchester


TV shows where the hero or heroine walk in the door, throw their keys into a basket and that is it..

They never walk out the door again, forget to pick up the keys and get locked out because the house keys are on the same ring and have to phone their partners who are miles away and have to dash back to sort the matter out.

In short, nothing like Chez Borchester about once a week.

How about you guys?
