    Not to mention we have a Deputy Prime Minister ( and don’t forget to call him that, he gets upset if you don’t) who thought that the Marie who won a Nobel Prize for her work on radiology was Marie Antoinette and that Henry Vlll’s son was Henry Vll. The hypothetical bus crash and this genius could be in charge of us.[/QUOTE]

    Who is it this week...

    Best to remember the old adage about it being better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than opening it and confirming it.

    A lady, sorry, a person round my way regularly decorates 7 or 8 post boxes round my way to mark various events , anniversaries and causes. These are two of her recent ones. Amazingly in this day and age only 1 over a period of years has ever been nicked.

    I'm not as daft as Rover looks. I actually went to the bar in Clarendon after Saturday's match, I asked Steverico for instructions, FACT.
