    I've been playing with the slidey counter thing on the BBC website, it's great fun. Did you see Liam Fox squirm? Refused to discuss if they would enter into discussion with the LD if there is a Hung Parliament.

    Did you see Liam Fox on Question Time last week - he looked nervous and well shifty.

    Hmm the site is playing up. I've made 3 posts which haven't shown.

    Nopot, there's you me Annie, Dusty, PenPen and possibly Haribo lurking. We are talking politics, mostly but I am enjoying making personal comments about the candidates' appearance, voices, choice of attire or even character assasination if it amuses me, :) Keeps me awake. I am fading now though, need a cuppa. Anyone else?

    And just to top off my fantastic night have just gone into the kitchen only to find a slug the size of a bus.

    A bl00dy big, fat tigery thing.

    Me, you, Annie, PenPen, Dusty, and Haribo is lurking still, I think! Mostly politics chat, but I am not averse to making personal comments about the candidate's appearance, voices or choice of attire! :)

    My Tory candidate looks like a slug :rotfl: Sadly, it looks like he'll steal the seat from our great constituency MP :(

    "It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
    "So it is."
    "And freezing."
    "Is it?"
    "Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately."
