    Charlie boy has a sense of humour. His greeting when meeting Starmer - “Greeting the politician, the King said: 'You must be utterly exhausted. And on your knees.”

    Starmer should have replied 'it must make a change for you having to bend over for people nowadays'. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    It just reminded me of a Frasier episode when Martin was trying to put a boat kit together…

    When the more inept of his sons broke one of the masts there was a discussion about what it could be with a mast less and he finally suggests a schooner the housemaid/ physical therapist asks what’s a frigate. That’s when you don’t give a damn anymore says the old man as he slams the whole thing down on the table.

    Auto correct. Though spelling, grammar and punctuation aren’t requirements for literature nowadays. Or for a journalist on the HDM.

    There's a glimmer of hope for the HDM, Jack Bowman seems a decent journalist in the old school local newspaper reporter mould. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    The same Jack Bowman who reported that Whitehead's was
    Hulls best fish and chip shop or the same Jack Bowman who reported that Hull was close to getting its Wendy’s burgers third opening on the same day as elections results were announced and it made headlines.
